The ‘Care Package’ fix for the Xbox 360 version of Modern Warfare 2 is now available. In other news, the folks who got rid of the game because of the glitch have moved on to Mass Effect 2 & BioShock 2 and will not be picking it back up again… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Look for a multiplayer demo for Sega’s upcoming Aliens vs Predator title tomorrow on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace, Playstation Network & on Steam… The Mass Effect: Redemption #1 is free on iTunes for today only. Also, issue #2 should be arriving in a comic shop near you today… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Slow news day. I’m assuming it’s because everyone is busy playing Mass Effect 2 or getting hyped about the Apple announcement today… You can pick up Psychonauts on Steam for $2 until tomorrow. No, that’s not a typo… Look for Capcom’s Monster Hunter franchise to make it’s way to the Xbox 360 this summer… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Microsoft’s Games on Demand service is adding Halo Wars ($29.99) & Dead Rising ($19.99) today… Remember the “exclusive” content that the Playstation 3 Divine Edition of Dante’s Inferno will have in it? Well, it won’t be exclusive in the strictest sense of the word. The Dark Forest DLC will be coming to the Xbox 360, for free, just like the Playstation 3 version. It just won’t be at launch… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Batman Arkham Asylum 2 is already available for pre-order through Amazon. No new info to be found & the cover art used is the crumbling Batman logo from the trailer (it’s safe to say that’s not the final cover art)… Look for the PC beta for Command & Conquer 4 to go public very soon… Bookmark It Hide Sites

If you’re planning on picking up MAG or Mass Effect 2, then you might want to check out Toys R Us. Grab either one & you can get Valkyria Chronicles for $20. I’m not sure how long the promotion will last, but it’s a great deal if you can take advantage of it… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Crayon Physics is a small indie PC title that really deserves your attention. It’s a brilliant puzzler that will tax your brain, regardless of the kindergarten-esq visuals the crayons provide. The good folks at Kloonigames are celebrating the title’s 1st birthday by doing a “pay what you want” sale. That’s right, just head over here & pay any amount you feel is appropriate using PayPal. You can undercut them & only pay a penny, but seriously, this one is worth much more than that (regular price is $19.95). The sale is ongoing until Jan 15th, so you only have...

So I’m beginning to come around. I’m starting to accept the iPhone/iTouch as a gaming platform to a certain degree. I still can’t say I want to see big titles along the lines of Mass Effect or Fallout 3 on it, but I think the smaller, casual style games definitely have a place on the device. That was made totally apparent to me after playing Kingdom of Gnester. I had been leaning toward picking up an iTouch for quite some time, but since I have several other iPods along with my Zune, I just couldn’t justify the expense. When the guys at Another Castle Studios asked if I...

Dragon Age: Origins Avatar items have been added to the Xbox 360 Avatar Marketplace… In case anyone missed it, the demo for Army of Two: The 40th Day should be available right now on both Xbox 360 & Playstation 3. Keep in mind that it’s co-op only (online private, online public, & local split-screen). No single player… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Yakuza 3 is finally confirmed to be coming stateside. Gamers have been clamoring for this announcement since it launched in Japan last February. Look for it to be a Playstation 3 exclusive & should hit North America in March. Check out the announcement trailer below… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Tekken 6 will be getting an update on the Playstation 3 & Xbox 360 tomorrow. It should optimize the online portion of the game like input response time & such… The new, bigger screened DSi is out in Japan (called the DSi LL) & has sold more than 100,000 units already. Look for it to come stateside early next year (domestically it’ll be dubbed the DSi XL)… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Remember that Spike TV teaser that hit last week about the “new shooter from 2k Games”?

Go here to check it out… Bookmark It Hide Sites

So, the rumors that started floating around the other day are true: Nintendo plans to release a new DSi with a bigger screen. Dubbed the DSi XL here in the States, it will carry a screen that’s 93% bigger than the current DSi. In Japan, it will retail for a bit more than the regular model, so I’m going to assume the cost increase will carry over in both North America & in Europe. Before all the haters start flaming their favorite forums, I just want to remind everyone that this is pretty much par for the course for Nintendo. How many different iterations of the Game Boy was released...

I’ll start this edition off with a question: How is Rock Band for iPhone/iTouch? As a huge fan of the franchise, I’m curious to see how it transitioned over. Is it just a touch screen version of Unplugged? Anyway, the good folks at EA Mobile announced a couple of songs that are available now for free! Connect up to the store & pick up “Science Genius Girl” & “Super-Sprode”, both from Freezepop… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Alright, hopefully this first post-PAX edition of Daily Gaming Tidbits marks my return to a normal update schedule. I still have several reviews coming your way (including Wet, which will post later tonight) along with some more PAX previews & interviews that I’ll be posting sometime this week. But, normal updates should be resuming today… Bookmark It Hide Sites

Just wanted everyone to be aware, I’ll be preparing for & attending PAX 09 this week, so my site updates will be hit & miss until I return next week. Just keep an eye both here & on Twitter for all my latest info… Bookmark It Hide Sites

EA announced today that they have added some musicians from around the world to bring fresh content to their upcoming Sims 3 expansion, World Adventures. Artists like Nelly Furtado, Pixie Lott, & Young Punx all will add songs to the game. Of course, the songs won’t be a direct copy, as each song in a Sims game is sung in Simish. World Adventures will expand the world for your Sims, allowing them to travel to places like Egypt & China. They will have access to new skills & personal goals as well as meet a bunch of new people. Below is a list of the artists EA has announced so far,...
