Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 Detailed

Treyarch Community Manager, Josh Olin, just tweeted that the latest Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 information was available at CallofDuty.com.

"Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 2 expands the addictive CoD multiplayer experience with three new multiplayer maps and one new co-op/Zombie map. Battle to control the river bridge in “Banzai” - a bright jungle map featuring a waterfall and hidden caves. In “Corrosion” face down your enemy in a shattered train yard, and in “Sub Pens” wipe the monsoon rain from your eyes as you struggle over a bombed-out submarine base. The Zombies make a return in “Shi No Numa” (Zombie Swamp) featuring Perk machines, the deadly new Wunderwaffe DG-2, new Achievements / Trophies… and flaming Hell Hounds!"

No date or price yet, but as soon as we know, you'll know.

Batman: Arkham Asylum Combat Trailer

The Batmans of yesteryear were all about their "KAPOWs," "BIFs," "POWs," and "ZAPs." From the latest combat trailer from Eidos and Rocksteady Games, upcoming Batman: Arkham Asylum, it's pretty clear that the old skool camp vibe played absolutely no part in the production of this game.

Instead, what we have is a dark, nitty gritty and pretty brutal fighting mechanic built in, so expect more "CRUNCHs" and "CRACKs" during the combat scenes. Now, if only Robin was around so we could inflict that sort of carnage on him, then we'd be even more happy ... chance would be a fine thing though.

New Mass Effect 2 Concept Art is Dark and Mysterious

The concept art for Mass Effect 2 up until now has been pretty damn cheerful with the recurring theme of hope ringing through them that stems from the rebuilding of a once great society; this one inparticular ... the white birds give it away.

However, the latest pieces of concept art out of BioWare don't have that much to be cheerful about, showing off, what we assume, is part of the destruction that Saren and co created, as well as a dark and dingy space station that looks nothing like the tranquil confines of the Citidel. Interesting and pretty fancy concept art.

For the rest of the concept art, check out the Mass Effect 2 gallery here.

Is The Witcher For Consoles Cancelled?


CD Projekt's upcoming console port of the well-received PC title The Witcher could be in jeopardy. According to a series of news stories seen on GameBanshee the developer is experiencing financial issues and as such the team working on The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf has suffered layoffs.

The developer was originally working on three games tied to The Witcher license. The Witcher 2 is now the only title currently in development.

Details are sketchy, but the following facts have been confirmed: after the release of The Witcher, CD Projekt Red took the financial obligation of starting 3 projects simultaneously, a console port of The Witcher, and two more titles based on The Witcher intellectual property, one of which was The Witcher 2.

As the financial crisis hit, the studio was affected as well, finding itself incapable of managing all three projects and forced to lay off a significant portion of its staff. The third Witcher IP project was cancelled, and its entire crew was let go or left of their own volition. A second round of layoffs followed as The Witcher: Rise of the White Wolf was cancelled, including around two dozen people losing their jobs yesterday.

All efforts will hopefully see The Witcher 2 hit PC and consoles in the future.

Gears of War 2 Achievement Glitchers Beware, GS Resets Inbound

Fantastic news for all you legit gamerscore whores out there. Thanks to a recent post by Stephen Toulose, Microsoft's official banhammer, we learned that Microsoft is resetting the gamerscore for those who have used a glitch to unlock some of the achievements in Gears of War 2. The post read:

"I’ve been quiet lately because I’ve been heads down on some work stuff. Today my team is issuing Gamerscore resets due to some people cheating up achievements in Gears of War 2. We’re going to be hitting the most egregious offenders first while we investigate the full set of people who have done it. More information on Gamerscore Resets can be found here.

Now, we do this on a periodic basis and I always get asked the same questions because I know a lot of people like to boost, etc. We tend to issue resets for a very clear set of actions that users take to get achievements without even playing the game. So those of you boosters, if you’re not glitching or doing other things in violation of the Terms of Use, don’t worry. Also to be clear, this isn’t any type of bug or issue caused by Gears of War 2, it’s just people cheating their profiles to toggle a specific achievement they didn’t actually earn.

Remember, the best way to avoid a Gamerscore reset is…earn your achievements!"

Dead Rising 2 Will Have Multiplayer

Yet more Capcom news, fresh out of Captivate 09, the yearly Capcom gathering in Monaco where everything is yellow and blue.

Eurogamer are reporting that Capcom Research and Development supremo, Keiji Inafune, confirmed that Dead Rising 2 will have a multiplayer mode.

"Single-player alone is not going to cut it. So rest assured we are going to put multiplayer in the game, but I can't go into specifics about what type of multiplayer as that directly relates to some of the game systems that we don't want to talk about at this event. It will be online multiplayer, so keep that in mind."

Inafune was also quoted as saying, "we're at a point in game history that you need to have some form of multiplayer component in a game." We're presuming he hasn't played The Darkness online then *shudders*

Let's just hope he's talking some form of online co-op mode and not some tacked on competitive mode that seems to be par for the course these days.
