Today both Lost Odyssey and Army of Two got some DLC.

For a mere 200 Microsoft Points ($2.50) you can get the “Triple Bonus Pack” for Lost Odyssey. The pack includes ‘Memory Lamp,’ which allows you to view past scenes, ‘Shattered Bond,’ an antique that will bring back memories of a forgotten dream, and a ring called ‘Killer Machine.’ As someone who never played Lost Odyssey, I am assuming that this makes sense to those who are familiar with the game.

For 600 Microsoft Points ($7.50) you can get the “SSC Challenge” pack for Army of Two. The pack includes four co-op maps which should help breath new life into the game.

Warhawk’s upcoming expansion, Operation: Broken Mirror, will arrive in North America on April 17 for $8. Operation: Broken Mirror will include:

10 layouts on a brand new winter battlefield, Vaporfield Glacier.
2 new Armored Personnel Carriers (Chernovan and Eucadian styles).
10 bonus layouts for battlefields from the original game so that you can play with the APCs.

Sounds like a good buy to me. If you don’t currently have Warhawk, there is a limited-time sale from the PlayStation Store and the full game will only cost you $29.99.

Turok will be getting some DLC tomorrow, Thursday March 26. Five new maps will be available for the low price of 400 Microsoft Points or 5 PlayStation 3 “Dollars.”

The maps run the gamut, featuring one Co-Op, two remakes with new lighting and 2 new maps. The remakes are of “Testing Grounds” and “A Heated Rivalry.”

Also announced, Turok will be making its way onto the PC and will be arriving April 22, 2008.

This Wednesday Triggerheart Exelica will be arriving on Xbox Live Arcade.

Triggerheart Exelica is your standard top down shooter, ala 1942 and Ikaruga. The game will cost you 800 Microsoft points ($10.00) and will feature a classic and a remastered HD version. Unfortunately there is only single player and the only online feature is a leaderboard.

If you are down with crazy hard, anime style, top down shooters this might be the game for you. Personally, I’m cool with not having seizures.

Today at GDC, during the Microsoft keynote, Gears of War 2 was announced. Little is know about the title other than it will be an Xbox 360 exclusive and it will be out in November.

No details on the storyline or co-op modes have been released, but it would be a travesty if Epic and Microsoft proceeded without them. The only thing I hope they add would be more multiplayer modes. Either way, shooter fans everywhere can rejoice that Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago will be back. I know I’m excited.

Expect another post as soon as new information is released.

For the longest time, my friend Chris has been nagging me to play the game REZ. I have never really understood his fascination with the game, and kept blowing off buying it.

Well, now is my chance, and yours as well, to get the upcoming REZ HD on Xbox Live Arcade. If you go to the REZ HD website and register, you will be put in a drawing for one of 50 prepaid Xbox Live Marketplace codes. You better act quick; the contest ends Jan. 27th.
