More games coming to HD consoles (thank you Konami!)

Silent Hill HD? Metal Gear HD? Zone of the fucking Enders HD? Now I know that the PS2-to-PS3-HD tactic can be looked at an easy money making strategy but c'mon. If you haven't experienced any of these great Konami titles, I will hunt you down.

Zone of the Enders is coming back in glorious HD format! Both Zone of the Enders games are being remastered in HD and is hitting the PlayStation 3 AND Xbox 360. Zone of the Enders will be out in 2012.

As for the Metal Gear Solid HD collection, it will include Metal Gear Solid 2, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. The MGS collection will be out this November. This will also hit the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. No love for Portable Ops huh? Oh well.

Konami states that these HD version isn't an emulator. It's optimized and rebuilt specifically for the PS3 and Xbox 360. There's a new user interface, redrawn high-res 2D art, new trophies and Achievements and improved audio quality.

Additionally, both collections will have a new feature called "Transfarring." Yes, it's really spelled that way. Transfarring will allow PlayStation 3 and PSP owners to share one save that works between the two versions of Peace Walker. So far that will be the only game that works with Transfarring. The feature is also in the Zone of the Enders HD collection but Konami wouldn't detail why exactly. Possible PSP or NGP releases coming?

The Silent Hill HD collection will contain Silent Hill 2 and 3, no solid release date specified. C'mon, you couldn't fit the blocky Silent Hill 1 in there or even Shattered Memories? What gives Konami? (I still love you though)

Playstation Store is back!

The Playstation Store is finally back for us to spend our money on after Sony was hacked back in April and compromised over 1 million user accounts. The Welcome back Package is still not live so don't rush to your PS3's to download your freebies. Sony says the package is on it's final testing stages and will be out soon enough.

For now, head over the PlayStation Blog to see whats new in the Playstation Store. With almost 2 months of being offline, the Store has been updated with loads of new content to browse.

There have been reports though that as you browse through or start downloading content you get error code “80710D36”. Nick Caplin, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) communications boss has issued a statement on the matter, stating, "There are so many of you accessing the store at the moment that due to the excessive load, it is a little slow."

I too have experienced this error just by browsing the Store. it's understandable since millions of players are inside the Playstation Store downloading and buying content.

What's the first thing your going to do when you enter the Playstation Store? me I'm currently trying to redeem my "Naked City" free DLC for L.A Noire but getting the error code “80710D36”. Dammit Sony!

Batman: Arkham City - Catwoman Trailer

Batman: Arkham Asylum was an amazing Batman game(best one even) and I'm sure all of you can't wait to control batman again but this time going around Gotham City. Arkham City will be bigger and better than the first and we also get to control Catwoman in some parts of the game.

Arkham City will be around 40 hours long, 25 hours for the main story and 15 side quests and collectable to gather. Compared to Arkham Asylum, yes it's definitely huge and Catwoman just might be the perfect ice breaker to give something different during this lengthy game. They say Catwoman is only about 10% of the game and i think thats just enough.

Batman: Arkham City will be out on PS3 Xbox 360 and PC on Oct 18.

F.E.A.R 3's multiplayer modes

Anybody still excited for this? well they just released a new trailer giving us a peek on a specific mode in F.E.A.R 3's multiplayer, Soul Survivor. Now that each mode has a trailer explaining the objectives, i think now is a perfect time to gather everything multiplayer has to offer.

Soul Survivor - In Soul Survivor, Alma corrupts a member of the F.E.A.R squad and turns him into a ghost, who has to take down the surviving player.

Contractions - This is a co-op mode, Think Left 4 Dead or COD black Ops zombie. As a F.E.A.R. squad waiting for extraction, four players will have to survive against the enemies unleashed with each contraction Alma has.

Soul King - Players will be ghosts in this game mode, they will have to posses enemies and steal souls earned by the other players. Reminds me of Halo Reach's skull collecting game mode

F**cking Run - This has to be the best. Not only does it look fun since your always on the move, but because the name is just epic. F**cking run!!

I've lost faith in F.E.A.R's single player since the second game was a fail in my eyes. With a new developer,Day 1 Studios, running the shots now, you never know, it might turn out to be a good game. Multiplayer seems fun, but We'll just have to wait and see.

It was meant to be released on May but pushed back to June, now the game will be released on June 21 for Playstation 3, PC, and Xbox 360.

Red Faction: Armageddon unleashes Mr. Toots!

This is actually pretty hilarious. The Red Faction Armageddon demo is out and is said to unlock Mr. Toots in the full game if the demo reaches 1 million downloads. Well nowadays, 1 million downloads can be achieved easy and thanks to the all those demo players, we get to wield the deadly Mr. Toots after finishing Red Faction Armageddon's Single Player for the first time. Rainbow death!!

The rainbow farting Mr. Toots, is Mars' last hope. Hilarious stuff, but before i was about to release this post i realized where I've seen Mr. Toots first in action. If you know freddiew in youtube, the famous vfx editor with amazing action videos, made a video of Mr. Toots. THQ was kind enough to hand them assets of Mr. Toots for them to use in one of their videos. This is the result below. Go check out freediew's channel, they have amazing videos that you'll enjoy.
