Though that other open-world crime drama just got a huge booster shot in the form of the release of Ballad of Gay Tony, Volition’s Saints Row 2 is getting a helping hand from its ol’ pal Microsoft. Major Nelson recently announced that the game’s DLC pack, “Ultor Exposed,” is the Xbox Live Marketplace Deal of the Week. The pack, which offers three new missions, a new co-op mode and a playable character modeled after real-life porn star Tera Patrick, has had its price cut to 560
($7). That’s a 30 percent discount from the add-on’s usual 800 ($10) price point.
With that, we’d like to welcome the naughty folks who ended up here after searching Google for “porn star Tera Patrick.” Welcome! Sorry, there’s no images of your erotic quarry to be found here, but take a look around, anyways! You might just like what you see.

The second of three planned DLC packs for Red Faction: Guerrilla will add more multiplayer mayhem on September 17 — just over threeeee weeeks from now. The pack adds eight new maps and two new modes (listed after the break!), some of which are shown and discussed in the the video above.
Volition is aiming to release the Multiplayer Pack for PS3 and Xbox 360 at $7 (560). Oh, and for those who’ve yet to play Guerrilla, we totally recall telling you to “get your ass to Mars.”
Update: THQ has ninja-switched the DLC date to Sept 17 from the 10. Don’t believe us? The original date can still be heard in the video.

Major Nelson sends word that Saints Row is now available through the Games on Demand service on Xbox Live. An open-world title, similar to Grand Theft Auto, Saints Row garnered pretty good reviews when it was released way back in 2006. In North America, the Games on Demand version will run you $30. Unsurprisingly, the retail version can be ordered for much less online. Still, if you gots to have it and you gots to have it right now, it’s there. Just calling your name.

[Thanks, Mike]

Okay, so Red Faction: Guerrilla is set to receive three different DLC injections. The first, Demons of the Badlands, drops tomorrow. Old hat, we know, but you may be interested in what Volition had to say about the other two packs during a recent chat with Loading Reality.
Volition specifically named “Multiplayer and Wrecking Crew” as the focus of the next two DLC releases. Sadly, the studio would not divulge any other details concerning the upcoming content, like a timetable for release and price, but you can bet we’re crossing our fingers for at least some more animal weaponry.
[Thanks, Brandon T.]

In order to promote the imminent release of the “Demons of the Badlands” DLC for Red Faction Guerrilla, THQ is giving away a sweet, custom painted Xbox 360. The contest itself is pretty simple: Visit the contest page (THQ membership required) and answer an easy question about where the DLC takes place (hint: Mariner Valley). Entries will be accepted until August 31. The only catch is that the contest is only open to residents of the UK, although the entry form, for some reason, still allows users to choose the United States as their location.
So, we wish the best of luck to all of our UK readers. The rest of us will just have to stare at the pretty picture.

Here we are, only a day after Volition detailed the upcoming patch for Red Faction: Guerrilla, and now we have an official release date for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions, August 6. It should hit the 360 at around 4am PT, while the PS3 should receive the update in the afternoon (presumably alongside the weekly PSN update).
One of the new features that the patch enables is the ability for Volition to allow double XP, and the dev is ready to kick the doors off with an extended double XP weekend. Starting tomorrow, once the patch releases, players can earn double XP until Sunday, August 9, midnight PT. With that much double XP, it’ll be ostrichin’ time before you know it.

Volition has announced that a patch is on the way for Red Faction Guerrilla, which will add some new features and contain some tweaks to the game as well. The biggest of the additions is a new variant of Wrecking Crew called Challenge Mode. Wrecking Crew Challenge Mode, appropriately enough, challenges players with three consecutive levels, each with different weapon and backpack settings. The ultimate goal, as usual, is to rack up as high a score as possible. Additionally, all other Wrecking Crew modes will be available for single-player games.
There are a number of other additions, like the ability to disable specific weapons and backpacks in custom games. Ore that hasn’t been mined will also now show up on the mini-map, which is good news for Achievement / Trophy hunters. Finally, the patch will add support for the upcoming DLC, which is set to release next week. Head over to the official Red Faction site for the full patch notes.

If your revolutionary Martian escapades are drawing to a close, don’t fret — it looks like there’s plenty more Red Faction: Guerrilla content coming out in the next few months. THQ just announced three new DLC packs for the game — the first of which, titled Demons of the Badlands, will land on XBLM and the PlayStation Store on August 13.
Badlands is an expansion to the game’s single-player campaign which features a “mission arc that takes place in an entirely new Mars landscape outside of the existing expansive world.” THQ has priced the DLC at 800 or $9.99. The developer has promised further details on the August-bound DLC and the two other upcoming expansions in the next few weeks, so keep your ear to the red, dusty ground.

Over the past few months, we’ve come to rely on Saints Row 2’s bizarre, Gary Busey-centric advertising campaign as a source of humor and, more importantly, spiritual renewal.
As a final farewell, Busey is promoting the free “UnKut” DLC from the game in a new video. Gary has used his laser-like vision to peer into your soul … and his reaction to what he found there? Well, we don’t think you’re going to like it, let’s just leave it at that.
Oh well, the DLC is free, just how much persuasion do you need?
