Are you bored with the unspoken, yet powerful sexual tension between Resident Evil 5’s protagonists, Chris and Sheva? Yeah, we are too — that’s why we’re so excited about these scans from the latest issue of Famitsu (as uncovered by Siliconera), which reveal that the second chapter in the game’s Alternative Edition DLC, titled Desperate Escape, will let you play as Jill Valentine and Josh Stone. In case you didn’t recognize that last name, Josh Stone is actually a pretty popular British female soul singer. Seems like a weird choice, but what-evs.
Okay, Josh Stone is actually the BSAA member who helps out Chris and Sheva throughout the game — mostly through the deus ex machina helicopter rescues for which the series is well-known. But wait — if you’re playing as Josh Stone, who’s going to come rescue you at the end of the game in a helicopter? This could be bad, folks.

Not content with unleashing a full-blown zombie apocalypse, Valve has come up with the second most socially awkward event imaginable: inviting characters from the original Left 4 Dead to hang out in the sequel’s first DLC campaign. Bill, Louis, Zoey and Francis will meet with the stars of Left 4 Dead 2 in “The Passing,” which Valve VP of marketing Doug Lombardi calls “the most important campaign in the Left 4 Dead story, as all the Survivors are being called together in one campaign.” It’s targeted for release in early 2010 on Xbox 360 and PC.
In addition to a co-op campaign (set in rural Georgia) and a new “co-operative challenge mode of play,” The Passing will offer new content for Survival, Versus and Scavenge modes. Playing as the L4D2 cast, you can also expect to encounter a new melee weapon, firearm and “uncommon common” zombie.
We can’t wait to meet up with last year’s survivors again … oh, assuming they really are still survivors.

If you’re desperately wanting to get your hands on some new glad rags for Resident Evil 5’s co-operative protagonists, then the expanded “Mercenaries Reunion” gametype in the game’s upcoming DLC should fulfill your sartorial fantasies. Sheva’s new outfit, nicknamed “Fairy Tale,” resembles Little Red Riding Hood’s garments, as reimagined by someone involved in the adult film industry. Chris’s new outfit, nicknamed “Warrior,” simply turns him into a person-shaped collection of fists.
Sheva’s duds can be seen in the video above, while Chris’s can be found just after the jump. Proceed with caution if you elect to view the latter — there’s a very real possibility that your eyeballs could get punched.

Developers Naughty Dog have promised that more downloadable content for Uncharted 2 is in the pipeline.
This news comes via a post on their website which notified Uncharted 2 gamers that a live update is now available to fix a few glitches in The Fort multiplayer map.
According to the post: “That’s all for now, but we have been actively working on a bunch of things big and small to support our multiplayer fans. We wanted to take this opportunity to give you an idea of what is still to come.”
“Just like what our update to ‘The Fort’ today, we’ll be addressing exploitable glitches in other multiplayer maps in the very near future. After those go through, we will be keeping a very close eye on multiplayer games to see if any new exploits arise that need to be addressed.”
“Speaking of ‘The Fort,’ we’ve got more than that currently in our downloadable content pipeline. Many of us at the studio have been feverishly working on more DLC for multiplayer since UNCHARTED 2 went gold. You’ll be hearing more about our plans in the future.”

For 800 MS Points on this day, you will be able to buy and download the Xbox LIVE Arcade game Qix++, a modern-day re-imagining and remake of the original screen-sector game released many years ago.
Qix++ (pronounced by many as ‘kicks’), this new version apparently contains “sleek graphics and cool sound effects” and is “[r]eloaded with new features and a multiplayer mode,” and will include the classic screen-capturing gameplay as seen in the originals, although no further concrete information is currently available.
As per usual, Qix++ will (should) have a demo available, so you can check it out on Xbox LIVE Marketplace now.

If you claim to love Tim Schafer, the new Brütal Legend DLC, “Hammer of Infinite Fate,” is your chance to prove it. When it arrives on Dec. 17, you’ll be able to pay the designer the ultimate tribute and carve his giant, disembodied head into Mount Rockmore. Sure, you’re still a stalker, but in a totally socially acceptable way. You’ll also get the Oculus of the Lost, a Deuce upgrade that shows every collectible on the map, as well as new outfits for Eddie and four new multiplayer maps.
The pack’s apparently going to be a bit cheaper for PlayStation 3 users, who will pay $4.99 compared to 480 MS points ($6) on Xbox 360. That might be a misprint (we’ve asked EA for confirmation), but we recall that PSN users did get the first DLC free for two weeks. Teacher’s pets.

Brütal Legend, Double Fine’s heavy metal-inspired action adventure game, will receive its second piece of downloadable content (DLC) next week, in the form of the Hammer of Infinity Fate pack, bringing with it a host of customisation options and gameplay additions.
This new Brütal Legend DLC will bring with it the ability to upgrade protagonist Eddie Riggs with three new outfits, including ‘Mountain Man,’ ‘Black Metal’ and ‘Zaulia Threads,’ and seven more back patches with which to customise yourself.
The DLC pack will also include four new paint jobs for Eddie’s hotrod, The Deuce, and four more upgrades for the car, including the ‘Oculus of the Lost’ (“an all-seeing GPS for the world”) and the ‘Eye of Sorrow’ (“a weapon that harness the power of the Sea of Black Tears and launches black projectiles of doom at enemies”), as well as The Disgorger and Coiling Maw (which probably do what the names imply).
Nine new Achievements/Trophies will also be up for the winning with the Hammer of Infinite Fate, while Mount Rockmore will feature the addition of six more heads to purchase and unlock for players to customise their landscape, with the visages of Rima, Razputin, Dadbat, Hunter, Kage the Kannonier and Tim Schafer available to carve into the mountain.
President of Double Fine Productions, Tim Schafer said of the Hammer of Infinite Fate DLC for Brütal Legend: “I’m excited about the beard, or course, and the new achievements and trophies. But the thing I really can’t wait to get my hands on is that Oculus of the Lost. Using it to find the last Bound Serpent isn’t cheating, because it looks so cool on my car.”
This new Brütal Legend DLC, Hammer of Infinite Fate, releases on December 17th next week on Xbox 360 (available for 440 MS Points through Xbox LIVE) and PS3 (available for $4.99 through the PlayStation Network).
El33tonline really enjoyed the time spent with Brütal Legend, so be sure to read our review and browse through our previous coverage to find out all about the game.

Microsoft and Turn 10’s latest racing simulation game, Forza Motorsport 3, has managed to sell over 1 million copies worldwide since its release in late October.
According to Microsoft, players of Forza 3 have logged over 6.6 million collective hours of game time while playing online, all across over 64 million play sessions.
In addition, players have driven over 590 million miles (or 949.5 million kilometres) in the game, which as Microsoft points out, is equal to “more than three trips from the Earth to the Sun and back.”
