Avatar mutliplayer trailer pits giant blue things against humans

November 29th, 2009 at 08:30pm Under Xbox 360

It could happen this week, it could happen next week, but sometime in the month of December, Ubisoft will decide to liberate Avatar from the shackles of game development. And when that happens, we’re prepared to go directly online and start popping 10-foot blue things with our big human weapons. This is about survival, ya dig?

It appears that in addition to simply plugging bullets into the creatures, Ubisoft will also be allowing for some form of capture the flag (wait, isn’t this about survival?). Other than that one crucial detail, the only info we gleaned from the multiplayer trailer above is that there’ll be a ton of explosions, even more mid-air flip-kicks, and explosion/flip-kick-laden jungle combat when the game does finally come out. For now, unfortunately, you’ll have to sate yourselves with something totally boring like Modern Warfare 2. Humans against humans? Pssshhht, that’s so mid-November.

Rockstar revamps Social Club’s online leaderboards and stat tracking for Gay Tony

October 29th, 2009 at 04:45pm Under Xbox 360

With the release of this week’s second Grand Theft Auto IV expansion The Ballad of Gay Tony, the game’s developer has decided to update the online multiplayer statistics tracking in order to reflect the new multiplayer game types. The addition of “BASE Jump” to the mulitplayer as well as “new, tighter Deathmatch arenas” helped spur the leaderboard overhaul, according to the developer blog. The various new additions being made due to the DLC will even get their own section on the Rockstar Social Club, presumably for the four of you tracking your new GTAIV DLC stats after Modern Warfare 2 releases in a couple weeks.
