Dragon Age: Witch Hunt DLC Announced

August 25th, 20102010-08-25T21:17:01ZF jS, Y Allen Kim No comments

In what is likely to be the last DLC released for Dragon Age: Origins, “Witch Hunt” brings closure to Morrigan’s tale.  With Dragon Age 2 set to release next year, this concluding storyline will help to answer many questions following the end of Dragon Age: Origins.

  • Price: $7 (560 MS Points)
  • Release Date: September 7th, 2010

The dreaded Archdemon has been slain and the advance of the darkspawn halted by a lone, heroic Grey Warden. The kingdom rejoices, but at least one question remains: what happened to Morrigan? The sorceress joined the Wardens cause, but it is said her true purpose was not revealed until the eve of the last battle. She vanished into the shadows, and while rumors claimed she crossed over the mountains into Orlais no trace of her path could be found. She was never heard from again… until now. Nearly a year has passed since the Archdemon’s death, and word has reached the Wardens that Morrigan has returned to Ferelden. She has been sighted in the southern wilderness where she was first encountered. Is it truly her? If it is, then why has is she here and what secret does she carry with her? The Warden heads into the forest to find out and tie up this last loose end once and for all.

  • Confront Morrigan in this dramatic conclusion to the Origins storyline
  • Earn powerful rewards that transfer into your Awakening and Origins campaign
  • Import your character from Origins or Awakening or create a new, high-level hero!

Amazon No Longer Selling XBLA Titles

August 23rd, 20102010-08-24T01:25:00ZF jS, Y Allen Kim No comments

amazon_xbl

Amazon has discontinued selling of Xbox Live Arcade titles through their website.  While they’ll continue to sell Microsoft Points, Arcade titles have been removed.  Reasons for the stoppage have not been provided, but they could potentially be due to the changes in the pricing tiers.  It also comes at a rather curious time as Gamestop just recently opened up their DLC program.

We are no longer selling Xbox LIVE arcade game codes on Amazon.com. You can continue to purchase Xbox LIVE points on Amazon.com and those points can be redeemed through your Xbox 360 console to purchase any of the games that were previously available.

Mass Effect 2: Lair of the Shadow Broker DLC Dated

August 23rd, 20102010-08-23T23:59:00ZF jS, Y Allen Kim No comments

shadow_broker-07-p

Bioware continues its strong support for Mass Effect 2 with yet another DLC.  This time you’ll have the opportunity to potentially confront and discover the identity of a figure more slippery than the “Illusive Man”.

Liara T’Soni is tracking down the mysterious Shadow Broker, and no one is safe. She’ll do anything to recover the man the Broker kidnapped… and the Shadow Broker’s agents will do anything to stop her. Team up with Liara and chase clues from the luxurious heights of Illium to the Shadow Broker’s own secret lair. This DLC adds the Shadow Broker intel center, new research, and five new achievements – and the chance to continue a relationship with Liara.

The Lair of the Shadowbroker will be released on September 7th.  It will cost 800 MS Points.

Left 4 Dead 2: New DLC Details

August 22nd, 20102010-08-22T22:43:57ZF jS, Y Terry Anstiss No comments

L4D2

Valve has announced a brand new downloadable chapter for both Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2 titled The Sacrifice. Set before the events of last DLC; The Passing, it will detail exactly how one of the original four survivors met their grisly, yet noble end.

The Sacrifice will star the original cast of Francis, Zoey, Louis and Bill; even if you play it via Left 4 Dead 2. However, Valve is not only just giving L4D2 players a chance to play as the originals survivors without loading the original, it’s also throwing the entire “No Mercy” campaign into the DLC for free. While details are very slim on when the DLC comes out, Valve did also confirm that there will be more Left 4 Dead 2 DLC after this upcoming package.

Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light: First DLC Free

August 18th, 20102010-08-19T00:57:00ZF jS, Y Terry Anstiss No comments

Lara Croft and The Guardian of Light has been getting a lot of attention as of late, thanks to vastly positive reviews, along side the somewhat unfortunate news that there will be a lack of online co-op at launch. Nevertheless, the guys at Crystal Dynamics have decided to sweeten the deal to everyone who buys the game by offering its first piece of DLC for free for the 30 days after release.

Within the press release, Darrell Gallagher, General Manager of Crystal Dynamics had this to say; “The launch of Guardian of Light is just the beginning, we have a lot of additional content planned and we will be offering the first DLC pack for the first 30 days for free, exclusively on the Xbox 360, so that gamers can get a taste of some of the exciting extras we have in store.”
