Even more Brutal Legend DLC to melt faces with

Metalheads who picked up Doublefine's Brutal Legend on Rocktober 13th have more DLC to look forward to after the previous "Tears of the Hextadon" map pack.

Coming on December 17th, the next installment of downloadable extras includes a lot more than just maps or a guitar. Titled "Hammer of Infinite Fate", the goods within will provide not only aesthetic qualities to the Druid Plow and Eddie Riggs, but the in-game GPS, "Oculus of the Lost", will guide you to all the collectibles that you may have missed or are tearing your hair out trying to find.

Here's exactly what to expect in the Hammer of Infinite Fate DLC pack:

• Three different oufits for Eddie Riggs so that he may travel in style: Mountain Man (which comes with a beard), Black Metal and Zaulia Threads. This also includes seven new patches to rock.
• Four new paint jobs as well as four more upgrades for the Deuce aka the Druid Plow: Oculus of the Lost; the Eye of Sorrow, a weapon that harnesses the power of the Sea of Black Tears and launches black projectiles of doom at enemies; The Disgorger; and the Coiling Maw. No descriptions for the last two but judging by the names alone they would definitely shine better with the gore filter ON.
• Nine new achievements/trophies become available with correlate with the other DLC
• Six new heads for Mount Rockmore, one of which is Tim Schafer himself. The others are stated as being the busts of Rima, Razputin, Dadbat, Hunter, and Kage the Kannonier.
• And not to ignore the already expanded multiplayer, you can also expect four more maps to rock out and summon those burning zepplins on. Look forward to the Altar of Blood, Coiled Remains, Crucible of the Titans and The Amplified Cliffs maps.

December 17th for the PS3 ($4.99) and Xbox 360 (480 MSP), be there or be left in the dust. Of the Deuce, that is.

Dante's Inferno Demo and Exclusive PS3 edition

For PS3 owners there is a lot to look forward to in the Dante's Inferno aspect, as the playable demo came out on the 10th which includes the entire first level of the game. Xbox Live subscribers won't get their taste of hell until December 24th, an interesting way to spend Christmas Eve. Many people have already alluded to the God of War-like fighting mechanics which seems more like a compliment than anything, and having played the demo myself I can say it's definitely as fun as God of War but certainly much more disturbing visually.

Visceral Games also announced on the 10th that for the PS3 only they have released a special "Divine Edition" of the game which includes lots of extras like commentary tracks, a digital art book, the complete soundtrack as well as a translation of Dante Alighieri’s "Divine Comedy" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, a poet who was the first American to translate the epic poem in the mid-1800s.

If you still need more Dante's Inferno to hold you over until the game's release in February, the new comic mini-series has just been launched with issue one, written by Christo Gage and illustrated by Diego Latorre whose art style is very unique and poetic in its own way. A #0 issue was given away at the EA booth at PAX this year where you were able to play an early version of the demo and take photos of the large Dante statue.

If you've played the Dante's Inferno demo already, what did you think? Was it what you expected, and what did you like most about it?

New Batman: Arkham Asylum sequel teaser trailer

Hot off Spike TV's VGAS, an awesome trailer has been released. Watch below!

Prince of Persia: Sands of Time

Lookit that mug. That's the face of someone who's seen more than his fair share of fucked up shit. And it's true, he has. Sand demons, unnecessary spikes everywhere, an evil king's assistant (called the Vizier) copying Jafar's moves from Disney's Aladdin and trying to acquire a source of power that he doesn't understand. You know, just another Tuesday, really.

The unnamed Prince in the game is arrogant, sarcastic, and mostly shirtless during the game but that doesn't stop you from liking the character. Indeed not, the charm is when he starts talking to himself randomly as you're playing, acting like any of us might when frustrated or angry at someone: he mocks them. Of course, he is not always so bratty and he even proves himself once he gains a little Sands of Time power, learning how to use it deftly and kicking the asses of evil sand minions.
