Call of Duty: Black Ops - Annihilation Map Pack Now Available on PS3 and PC

If you are still playing Call of Duty: Black Ops, well, you're probably pretty damn good by now.  Surely you're ready for a few new areas where you can camp valiantly charge into battle.  Annihilation is the latest map pack from Treyarch.  True, the DLC came out a month ago on the 360, but if you're gaming on the PS3 or PC, it's new to you! .  Annihilation has four new multiplayer maps which can be played cooperatively versus bots, and then there is a new co-op Zombie map, Shangri-La.  For an in-depth look into the map pack you can check out our impressions here.

Nintendo's 3DS console is dropping in price, but don't worry early adopters, the big N has your back.

Nintendo 3DS Dropping to $169.99, Existing Owners Get 20 VC Games Free

Nintendo's 3DS handheld hasn't gotten much love.  Sales of the system have been sluggish and game releases have been few and far between.  Co-Op games?  Even more scarce.  So Nintendo has done the only wise thing to do in this situation - drop the price by $80.  Starting August 12th the Nintendo 3DS will retail for $169.99.

WWFWD?

New Trailer for Dead Rising: Off the Record Offers A Look Back at the Willamette Mall

WWFWD?  We're about to find out.  Dead Rising 2: Off the Record is coming to our gaming systems this October.  We'll be replaying much of Dead Rising 2 with doughy photojournalist Frank West.  He's no X Games reject like Mr. Chuck "Fancy Pants" Greene.  Insert a stupid joke about inserting an even stupider joke about covering wars here.  Screw wars!  He takes pictures of zombie erotica, dammit!  The game will feature new combo weapons, the camera PP system from Dead Rising, new missions, characters, and areas.  The latest video features about seven seconds of new game footage, but it's fun all the same.  I should note that since the game is not a full sequel, it will only cost $39.99.  But I'm not going to.

All hail dynamic split screen!

New Trailer for Renegade Ops Is Co-Oplicious

This new trailer for Renegade Ops leaves little to be desired.  Two player local co-op? Check.  Four player online co-op? Check.  Dynamic split screen? Check.  Loads of explodin'? Double check.  The only thing we see missing is a local co-op with simultaneous online support, but we haven't seen anything to rule that out, either.  This latest video features the dynamic split screen in all of it's dynamic diagonal glory as well as the four player online co-op.  And explosions.  Lots and lots of explosions.

Way to serious?

Anarchy Reigns Has a Story, Here's the Trailer to Prove It

We've seen a lot of videos for Anarchy Reigns.  A lot of videos.  Each has had a wild, over the top feel.  This latest trailer focuses on the story of the game, which looks to take itself a little too seriously.  It seems way out of place, considering the character pieces we've already seen.  When I played the game at E3 I was a little underwhelmed with the gameplay.  Luckily, the game doesn't release until January of 2012, so they have time to work out the kinks.  Check out the video and let us know what you think.  Does it gel with the characters, or does it seem a little out of place?

Frozenbyte promises that Trine 2's knight will be much stronger and much more useful than his previous incarnation

Trine 2 Will Have a Revamped, more Useful Knight

Trine's knight had his uses, but if I'm going to be blatently honest, I would only switch to him in one of three scenarios: I had jumped into a close quarters ambush, I absolutely had to block something like traps, or if he was the last man standing on my team. It's not that he was a bad asset to the team, but he was slower than the other two characters, he had to be in melee range, and lord knows he sunk like a stone when he tried to swim.
