Enslaved DLC To Be Side Quest


In an interview with VG247, Ninja Theory bossman Tameem Antoniades revealed that the first bit of DLC to be released for the upcoming title, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, will in fact be a side quest in the game.

"It will be a side adventure. We want to be very clear that the story has a beginning, middle and end, so you don't need to get the DLC to fill in the gaps," said Antoniades.

"It's a totally separate side story, and totally separate from the main production of the game."

Enslaved releases in the US on October 5 and in the UK on October 8 for the PS3, 360, and PC.

Peter Molyneux Says Fable II Was Rushed

Peter Molyneux Says Fable II Was Rushed


Earlier today at Develop, Lionhead bossman, Peter Molyneux told attendees that Fable II felt "rushed." He was there to demonstrate Fable III for the masses.

"Fable II, let's be honest about it, it has some terribly messy things about it," said Molyneux.

"Half of that, again being honest, was because we rushed at the end and we had this terrible phase where, the world looks this beautiful with this many game features, and then slowly transitioned into being less beautiful."

Fable II was originally code-black listed meaning that it had so many bugs at release that it was Microsoft's top priority to fix, it was also the first game to make it the all "code-black" level.

"On Fable II we had, at one point, 67,000 bugs. The Microsoft Test team rated us super black. No-one had been black before. They'd been red and orange and green. But we were super black. They said it's utterly impossible for anybody to come out as super black.

"That's why we had to reduce down what we had. But, to be honest with you, there were also huge design flaws in Fable II."

Fable III is out on October 26 for the Xbox 360 and PC.

StarCraft II Client Available For Digital Download


If you have pre-ordered Blizzard's upcoming title, StarCraft II, you should be able to download an encrypted client for the game today in anticipation of the game's worldwide release on July 27.

You can download the client through here which is actually hosted by Battle.net. Installation will, in all likelihood, require an online verification...so you won't be able to actually play the game until the 27th.

If you're planning on just buying the game at retail then disregard this little tidbit.

Microsoft has said that the "1 vs. 100" dev team will now be applying their skills to other projects.

Brutal Legend 2 isn't happening



During his recent Develop panel, Tim Schafer -- creator of Brütal Legend and head of Double Fine Productions -- revealed that the potential for a sequel to Jack Black's journey through a fantastical world of rockitude is nonexistent. "Apparently when they said it was a done deal, they meant there was no deal, and we're done," he told attendees.

Double Fine fans shouldn't mourn the game's loss, however; the studio is currently at work on four new titles, so it's not like Schafer is riding off into the sunset -- unless that's part of one of the four games Double Fine is working on, in which case you heard it here first.

No Dragon Age On Handheld Devices


Greg Zeschuk, bossman over at BioWare, has confirmed that their massive hit, Dragon Age, will not be headed to any handheld devices anytime soon.

"I don't think so," said Zeschuk. "Dragon Age is on Flash, but I don't think we said Dragon Age handhelds. Unless they started a new thing while I was away, I don't think so. I'm pretty sure we're not right now."

Dragon Age II was confirmed earlier in the week with a March 2011 release date on the PS3, 360, and PC.

New Medal Of Honor Trailer Announces Limited Edition

EA has released a new trailer for their upcoming title, Medal of Honor, in said trailer it is revealed that the game will be getting a Limited Edition.

Medal of Honor executive producer Greg Goodrich said;

"Access to a weapon like the MP7 will allow players to experience a tool developed with the Special Operations Community in mind..."With its light weight, high rate of fire and its ability to penetrate body armor, the MP7 handles like a pistol yet allows targets to be engaged like a rifle."

The Medal of Honor website has a list of retailers that you can pre-order the game through.

The game is out on October 12 in the US and October 15 in the UK on the PS3, 360, and PC.

Amazon Germany Lists New Xbox 360 Arcade Bundle

Amazon Germany has listed a new Xbox 360 SKU for the Arcade system. Apparently a new bundle will include a 4gb 360 console and retail for €148.99, which equates to around $189 USD.

It's marked for a August 20 release date, which is the same week of Gamescom. Coincidence? Perhaps, but it makes too much sense to be accidental.

We'll see I guess.
