It's a proud and momentous day in gaming today. I can for once, with a tear in my eye and my glass raised high, report that this week's Deal of the Week is actually pretty damn good. Deal of the Week meet Bionic Commando Rearmed.
Not only is this week's title a solid title, and one that everyone should experience, but at 400 Microsoft Points ... it's a bloody bargain! Seriously ... stop whatever you are doing right now and go and pick this up ... or not. But you only have a week, so don't drag your feet.
Remember, this is open for gold membership only.

Reports are just coming in about broken street dates for Sony’s highly anticipated game, inFamous, all over Switzerland.
This comes just 3 days before the scheduled release. No word yet on what retailers are participating, or if it just a nation-wide occurrence. Just to prove it, here is an image of a lucky buyer.
Bethesda today announced two new pieces of downloadable content for Fallout 3, coming this coming June and July for Xbox 360 and PC; one of which you might even recognise from the one rumoured last month.
The first of two newly announced episodes, Point Lookout throws players into a massive swampland area promising new quests and content to tide you over. Point Lookout will cost the usual 800 Microsoft Points and be available in late June.
The second of the new episodes, set for late July for 800 points also, is the extra terrestrially named, Mothership Zeta, where you'll encounter a race of supremely pissed off aliens and experience an alien abduction first hand.
In addition, PS3 owners out there who own this title will be glad to see all previous downloadable content making its way to the PSN starting this coming June with Operation Anchorage, followed by the release of The Pitt and Broken Steel 4-6 weeks apart. Point Lookout and Mothership Zeta are all slated for a PS3 launch after all the other three packs have been released.
Bethesda also sent word that they are planing to release their content on disc with their Add-on Pack #1 (Anchorage and The Pitt) hitting stores across Europe from June 12th. Add-on Pack #2 will drop in August and contain Broken Steel and Point Lookout. No price has yet been finalised, but these packs are stated as Xbox 360 and PC only.
Last but not least, Bethesda will be releasing a Game of the Year edition of Fallout 3 this coming October that will feature the original game and all five add-ons for a mere £39.99/€59.99 for the Xbox 360 and PS3. A PC version will be available and it will be slightly cheaper at £29.99/€49.99.
So then ... new Fallout 3 DLC ... excited much? Let Me Know With A Comment Below!

So we've seen Bane, the big powerhouse of a villain, and we've seen Harley Quinn, the agile minx of a villain. Now it's time for Poison Ivy, the freaky plant controlling villain. A pretty stellar cast so far ... it's just a shame we have to wait another few months for it, but I'm sure we'll live...

Guitar Hero 5 will feature 85 master tracks, with 30 of them from artists making their rhythm game debut. Activision has given us a little taster into some of the songs we’ll be treated to when the game releases towards the end of the year, and there’s a little something for everyone:
- The Rolling Stones – Sympathy for the Devil
- Bob Dylan – All Along The Watchtower
- The White Stripes – Blue Orchid
- Santana – No One To Depend On (LIVE)
- Vampire Weekend – A-Punk
- Tom Petty - Runnin Down a Dream
- Johnny Cash – Ring of Fire
- Kings of Leon – Sex on Fire
Yes, the mighty Kings of Leon will be appearing in Guitar Hero 5! If that wasn’t enough, a number of the game’s new features have been announced. First up is that the option to have any combination of available instruments in your band will be available so if you have two drum kits, then you can have two drummers in your band, so there’s no fighting over who plays what.
There will be two new multiplayer gameplay modes. The first of which is Party Play, which allows players to drop in and out of play effortlessly. In doing so, there’s no need to pause the game whilst your friend goes for a quick toilet break. The second new mode is Rockfest, which is set to include five new head-to-head modes available to play locally or online.
Multiple drummers is on the cards for Guitar Hero 5.
After the slightly disappointing upgrades and enhancements in Guitar Hero: World Tour, Guitar Hero 5 promises improved ones, including Band Moments where bands are reward for hitting special note streams together, and song challenges where gamers were tasked to play through a song in a specific way.
It’s also worth noting that Guitar Hero: World Tour download content will be compatible with the title.

Yesterday I posted that Ubisoft had upgraded their Splinter Cell: Conviction page on their website with a cryptic clue and a small segment of map.
Rabby86 From X360A.org was the first to crack the code correctly deciphering "vomacoifinnocnt" as an anagram for Man of Conviction. In a quick turn of events today, the Man of Conviction site actually came online with a short clip of good ol' Sam Fisher talking a bit about its past.
Also on the site are two other dates that are currently locked, one that expires on May 20th and one that expires on May 28th, both holding a few juicy details no doubt. Just in time for E3, huh? Fancy that.
