Gearbox releases 'Ultimate Greedy Bastards Pack"
Now, fast-forward to Borderlands 2. Another awesome game that I poured hours upon hours into, loving every minute of it. Then Gearbox starts making bad decisions, greedy decisions. Not only did they make their 'Season Pass' unable to be shared between consoles in the same household (thank you for wasting my $29.99 for something only ONE person in my house can play; just think if you were a parent with three kids, that is $89.97 just for DLC!!!), but now you want an additional $4.99 from me, so I can level up?!? Wow Gearbox, wow. Of course, they frame it like you are getting an awesome deal, the level cap goes from 50 to 61, you get access to a third play through titled 'Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode', extra storage capacity, access to the new pearlescent-colored (the rarest) weapons in the game and my favorite, a variety of bug fixes. All things I would love, and really love to be retro-active. But seriously, $4.99 for something that should be free and a way to give a big thanks to all your ultimate fans. Not a happy camper. I guess one good thing can be said, at least they are offering the upgrade pack for free to those who shelled out $29.99 for the Season Pass.

New Yoshi game coming to Wii U
New Yoshi game for Wii U |
The development team of Kirby's Epic Yarn (2010) is the team behind the new Yoshi game. While I personally, think the game looks closer to a knock off of PlayStation 3's Little Big Planet than it does a variation of Kirby's Epic Yarn, only time will tell if it can compete against LBP and it's huge success. Not much more detail has been released other than these screenshots but you can expect it to be a side-scrolling adventure.
New Yoshi side-scrolling adventure, too close to Little Big Planet? |

'Revolution' DLC Map Pack VidDoc
Coming Jan 29 2013 to XBOX360 for 1200 Microsoft Points/$14.99 USD or through the Season Pass.
Looks like a killer set of maps (4 multiplayer, 1 zombie), all unique and with interesting elements and in-game hazards. Also, the first time ever is the release of a new weapon with DLC, a SMG that is a SMG/Assault Rifle hybrid called, The Peacekeeper. Zombie fans can enjoy a new zombie map and a new game mode, where you can play as the zombie.

'Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty' + the Mechromancer, First Review
Gearbox Software has announced that the first DLC for Borderlands 2 will be hitting our consoles on Oct 16 2012 for 800 Microsoft Points or $9.99 USD. If you signed up for the Borderlands 2 Season Pass, this DLC is included. The new DLC is titled, "Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty", not much else is known at this time but I am sure we can expect some new areas, new weapons and new enemies. I can't wait!
Also, earlier this week Gearbox released an update to the game that fixed a lot of major issues such as stacking skill icons resetting, multiplayer bugs, co-op issues and red loot chests only spawning certain items. Along with the update came a new character class, Gaige the Mechromancer, which I started playing yesterday. I just finished killing Captain Flynt and am around level 7 so I haven't got too far into her skill trees however, from what I see thus far, she is a good mix between some of the other players skills (self healing, strong elemental damage) along with the addition of some new ones such as her 'Anarchy Stacks' and she has a robot companion, Deathtrap, who is just that. Deathtrap seems to deal quite a large amount of damage through melee attacks and can move around the battlefield. He lasts quite a long time, maybe around the same length as the Commando's turret, if not longer. My only complaint thus far as playing as the Mechromancer, her dialogue. She sounds like an annoying school girl, maybe a slightly older version of Tiny Tina and it has a way of grating on you after a while. I do love her striped stalkings though.
