Another reason to buy Saints Row 2?

Filed under: Game News | 0 Comments

A new downloadable content pack is available on the Xbox Live Marketplace today. The new DLC for Saints Row 2 features porn star Tera Patrick who provides you with some additional missions to help her “dismantle the Ultor Corporation”.

It’s certainly an interesting move by the game developers, but I’m sure it will receive a fair few downloads. Even without featuring Tera Patrick, this Saints Row 2 DLC is more than welcome by it’s fan base.

If you thought GTA IV was a bit too serious compared to earlier games, check out Saints Row 2 for some highly entertaining “sandbox city” fun (and chaos!).

Arkham Asylum: Meet Harley Quinn

Another new trailer has been released for the Batman: Arkham Asylum, featuring Harley Quinn. I’m not sure if they will be doing one of these for each of the characters in the game (it will be interesting to see how many there are), but the game is getting more and more interesting.



Originally I thought this game would just feature the Joker and loads of inmates/henchmen. I had no idea that there would be more! After a glimpse of Killer Croc I assumed that he might just be a cameo or sub-boss. Then there was Bane, and now there is Harley Quinn.

Who else will be joining the enemy roster? I can’t wait to find out. Who do you think will be the next villain to be revealed?

Arkham Asylum: Meet Bane

A new trailer has been released for the Batman: Arkham Asylum, featuring the hulking great enemy Bane.



As you can see, Bane looks awesome! The developers seem to be doing an excellent job of capturing the true essence of Batman. The voice actors chosen will please Batman fans, as will the look of all the key characters in the game.

I really cannot wait for Batman:Arkham Asylum! For the other trailers, check out the links below:

xbox 360 co op gamesFor me, the most enjoyable Xbox 360 games are those which I can play through co-operatively with friends. As many people who visit this blog or read my twitter already know, I am currently playing Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Vegas 2 far too much. Why?
