As usual, Atlus has arranged a special bonus for North American pre-orders. Pick up Persona 4 Arena from one of 11 participating retailers to score a free soundtrack CD. The RPG spin-off fighter hits PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in early August; a European release has not been dated but is expected soon.
Noticed a sudden decrease in available Max Payne 3 players? Son, you’re locked up with the rest of the dirty cheats. “We’ve taken steps to quarantine confirmed cheaters in Max Payne 3 Multiplayer. Starting today, anyone we’ve found using hacked saves, modded games, or other exploits has officially been cordoned off in a dedicated cheater pool, confined to wallow with other unscrupulous reprobates,” Rockstar announced earlier today.
The cheater’s pool probably has a fairly hefty population as the publisher revealed its plans almost a month ago, and asked players to submit offenders for consideration.
As a reminder, you can dob in cheaters by sending an email to maxpayne3.banhammer@rockstargames.com with the following information:
platform (PC, PS3 or Xbox 360) cheater’s Gamertag / ID description of the violation if possible, concrete evidence, such as a video or a screenshot If you’re in the pool and unsure why, you can also email the same address to plead your case. Good luck with that, hey
We’re still twiddling our thumbs waiting for official assets, but Warner Bros. unveiled two new cast members for Injustice: Gods Among Us at San Diego Comic Con. Polygon reports Nightwing and Cyborg were shown in a new playable build.
The pair join a handful of previously revealed combatants – Batman, Superman, Harley Quinn, Solomon Grundy, Flash and Wonder Woman.
Injustice: Gods Among Us was shown at EVO; you can check out 125 minutes of it in action here.
It’s the product of NetherRealm, the team behind Mortal Kombat, which worked with DC previously on crossover titles, but has otherwise been exclusive to its fighter IP. Expect it on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2013.

Square Enix aired a new TV spot for Hitman: Absolution during the Euro 2012 final last week, notable for its use of last year’s E3 assets and Lana Del Ray’s Video games.
Gun-totin’ lingerie nuns aren’t prime time material, apparently, but the E3 2011 trailer’s naked shower chick is. Go figure. Kotaku reckons this is the first time anybody’s cracked and whacked Video Games on an actual video game advertisement.
Hitman: Absolution is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in November.
A new video published today has two of the game developers giving a complete walkthrough of “The Streets of Hope” level in the upcoming game, Hitman: Absolution. The developers explain key points in the game such as how to cover your tracks and what to expect if you’re seen, depending on the situation. They also give hints for the level on how to use distractions, how not to draw attention to yourself and great ways on how to stalk your target through stealth.
Speaking during a session at Develop 2012, art director Sebastien Mitton and Viktor Antonov, visual design director at ZeniMax Media, discussed with attendees how the team spent two years researching and conceptualizing the stylized world in the game.
“Pre-production was the crucial element. It’s why the game is here today,” said Mitton in the Develop attended seesion.
As part of the team’s pre-production work, Mitton and Antonov spent time in both London and Edinburgh taking photographs of inhabitants as well as the various buildings and objects.
Main streets were avoided, as the team instead found the alleyways and side streets fit the overall theme of what it had it mind for the game.
“We were trying to design the game from a rat’s viewpoint,” said Mitton. “If we have a small city, from a constrained viewpoint, what are all the different angles that we can explore?”
Themes, architecture, morphology and the use of mystical lighting also played a roll when illustrating the set pieces, which also aided the pre-production team’s to experimentation while sticking with the original tone.
Dishonored is slated for release on October 9 on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
Criterion has released a set of screenshots showing off some of the American muscle cars and trucks which will be included in Need for Speed: Most Wanted. The list below basically reads like a what’s what of the vroom generation which doesn’t mind spending $5.00 a gallon for gas.
Then again, this is a video game, it’s not like we’d have fun driving a Rav 4 around in it a game with the cops chasing us. We’d lose. Quick.
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 Ford GT Corvette ZR1 Hummer H1 Alpha Ford F-150 SVT Raptor The Criterion racer will be releasing on October 30 in North America, and November 2 in Europe for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC.

As if the firm hasn’t said this enough already, a sequel to Mirror’s Edge is “on the list” of things to do at EA, according to labels president Frank Gibeau. The reason it’s taking so long to get to market, let alone me announced, has to do more with “how and when” the series will be brought back. “We have nothing to announce,” said Gibeau in the latest issue of GameInformer. “We love Faith. We love the property. It’s really about how and when do you bring it back? It’s on the list. It’s just about looking at what teams are available, who’s got the right quality approach to it, and who understands it.

Motohide Eshiro and Hideaki Itsuno have said the team at Capcom Japan were well prepared for how fans would react when Ninja Theory’s Devil May Cry was first announced. Speaking with D’toid, the producer and director at Capcom, respectively, said the firm and Ninja Theory stand 100% behind the new entry in the DmC series.
“We knew from the start that whenever you change something like this, there’s going to be some people that will be very interested in that. But it will also scare some people, and make some nervous. We kind of knew that going in, and we steeled ourselves for it,” said Itsuno. What we didn’t want to do is lose sight of our core concept.

If you panic and change direction you might forget what you were trying to make to begin with and a lot of times that’s how bad games get worse. What we really needed to do is stick to it, and then wait until we could get the game in front of more people and get them to understand what it’s really about.
“We’re just now starting to hit that point where we’re getting people to play, getting more information out there. People are starting to warm up to the idea.” Itsuno also said that while DmC is a new direction for the franchise, the classic gameplay and style of the original series hasn’t been thrown out with the bath water.
“We want to emphasize that we’re firm believers in that opening one door does not mean that another has to close automatically,” he said.

We are leaving all options on the table, so to speak. We are excited about this new iteration of DmC and are eager to get this into your hands, and we want people to play it and enjoy it. If people are still interested in exploring the other world of DmC that exists, we’re happy to go back to that as well.
“We view this not as a replacement for the Devil May Cry world, but as an expansion of it. No one knowa where it will head, but we’re open to all possibilities.”
DmC: Devil May Cry is expected on PS3 and Xbox 360 but has not been dated.

Namco Bandai announced during Comic Con Tekken Tag Tournament 2 would include over 100 swimsuits as DLC.The firm has yet to make an announcement regarding whether the costumes will be a bonus for early adopters of all versions, including the digital version, but the game’s producer, Katsuhiro Harada, has said for folks to stay tuned for an announcement on that front.

Kuma and Ganryu will not have swimsuits for obvious reasons: one is an animal, and the other wears a mawashi which is sort of like a swimsuit given that it doesn’t leave much to the imagination. School swimsuits will also be included. Apparently, this sort of thing is popular.

At San Diego Comic Con, Marvel confirmed a 2013 release window for High Moon Studios’ take on Deadpool. Check out the first trailer through the break.
As you’ll see momentarily, neither Marvel nor High Moon seem to be taking the license very seriously – which is frankly refreshing – so be sure to check out the new content on the website, too. No platform information yet, unfortunately. We’re waiting on a clean version of the trailer, but in the meantime, enjoy IGN’s offering.
No word on Hit Monkey; looks like that might just be a bit of marketing for Deadpool. Pity.

This trailer doesn’t contain enough Lucy lawless, but as this criticism can be leveled at everything that has ever existed it’s probably not fair to pick on Kung Fu Factory’s Spartacus Legends.
Announced to coincide with Comic Con, Spartacus Legends is based on the Starz TV series and allows players to create and follow the career of a gladiator from rookie to arena champion.
Some of the cast and crew have been involved in its production, but as previously grieved over, Lucy Lawless dos not seem to make an appearance.

Well, hello there; Capcom’s announced a revamped re-release of late 90′s brawler JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure will hit the PlayStation Network on August 22 and Xbox Live Arcade on August 21. The spruced-up classic will come with a full suite of online features “comparable to those in Super Street Fighter IV and Marvel vs. Capcom 3″ and will go for 1600 MS Points and the $20 PSN mark. What makes this particularly intriguing is the release’s coincidental timing with a new anime series based on the venerable manga property – and a new game from rivals Namco Bandai.

Cole McGrath of Infamous and Insomniac’s Jak and Daxter have joined the cast of Super Smash Bros brawl-a-like, PlayStation All -Stars Battle Royale.
The three new inclusions were announced at a panel at San Diego Comic Con. According to MTV Multiplayer, Naughty Dog were originally slated to build the fighter but it was handed off to Superbot because the former was busy with The Last of Us.
Staffers also confirmed rumours the project was originally named Title Fight – kudos, PGN.
