The latest portable fighting game for the Soul series is shaping up to look really good so far. Besides the addition of Dampierre and Kratos to the roster, Soul Calibur: Broken Destiny mainly borrows Soul Calibur IV‘s elements, ultimately becoming a portable version of the game. Nonetheless, it looks exciting to play as the protagonist of God of War.
Broken Destiny will be hitting stores on September 30th for the PlayStation Portable.
This year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo only recently ended, yet the Entertainment Software Association has already dated next year’s event. E3 2010 will be held during June 15-17 and hosted at the Los Angeles Convention Center once again. No reason given on why the schedule is a little later than this year, but it doesn’t make much of a difference.
The attendance for this year’s event grew by 820% from 2008, and is being called a “success” by the ESA. My guess is that the formula will be the same next year, seeing the overwhelming positive response for the last few days as compared to 2007 and 2008.

Heavy metal legends Iron Maiden will be hopping on the Rock Band DLC wagon next week, and the list of songs has been announced. The following tracks will be available for download:
The live tracks are ripped from the Somewhere Back in Time World Tour held from February 2008 to February April 2009, so they are very recent.
The DLC will be available June 9th on the Xbox 360 and Wii, followed by a June 11th release for the PlayStation 3.
The publishers of ARMA 2 thought it would be a fun idea to release a flash game allowing players to compete for the two top scores for a chance to get the game for free via digital download. Players will be allowed to play the game for the following five weeks, so you better get started soon. But if you dedicate that much time to the Flash game in the first place, it’s probably worth the investment to buy the game itself.
You can play the game on the official website. ARMA 2 will be out on June 26th for the PC and Xbox 360.
Sega has released the E3 trailer for their upcoming action game Bayonetta. The game is being directed by the creator of the Devil May Cry series, Hideki Kamiya, so fans of the genre might want to keep their eyes peeled for this one.
Bayonetta will be shapeshifting its way onto stores later this year for the PlaySation 3 and Xbox 360.
It has now been 25 years since Russian programmer Alexey Pajitnov made the puzzle game for the Elektronica 60 that we would eventually become addicted to for the next decade or two when it released on the Gameboy. Still to this very day, Tetris is being played on every console worldwide. Different variations of the game have been released, but none compare to the classic.
Even Google is celebrating, with its logo today being constructed entirely of Tetris blocks. Anyways, the game will always have a place for us in our hearts, and we will still continue to play it fifty years down the line.
If you want more of a history lesson on the game’s origins and many legal disputes, check out the Wikipedia article for the game. In case you want to feel some nostalgia, hit the jump for a Flash version of the hit puzzle game.
The original Perfect Dark was announced a few days back for the Xbox Live Arcade, and now we have some screens of the game in its 1080p glory. In addition to the game being outputted into full HD, there is also an improvement in frame rate.

This release coincides with the original Metal Gear Solid release for the PlayStation Network on June 18th, so if you haven’t checked out this amazing series, now is your chance.
