Star Wars Xbox? Skyrim mod from Valve?

The Video Game news for this week:
  • Rumor: A Battlefield 3 DLC may be dropping this week. Might be called All American, including maps that look like New York City, Miami, New Jersey and San Francisco.
  • Sony to change PSN, PlayStation Network, account into SEN, Sony Entertainment Network, accounts. I twas announced by email that the change was only cosmetic and will not affect PSP player.
  • Bethesda released the Creation kit for Skyrim fans yesturday. I have not seen it personaly, but I hear that it is awesome. It is free to download via Steam. This is only for PC users, but you can do some crazy stuff on there. Since Valve hosted the released they created a mod for the game that stars a notable Portal 2 character. The mod is called Fall of the Space Core, Vol. 1, if that doesn't give the character away then you are not a real Valve fan.
  • Rumor: Star Wars: Battlefront 3 has a few rumors out there after job postings from a certain developer may hint at the title.
  • EA will be announcing Medal of Honor 2 this March with high hopes of huge sales.
  • LucasArts drops the release date for Kinect Star Wars, which will be released on April 3rd. They also announced the  Kinect Star Wars which includes  the console designed to look like R2-D2, includes the Kinect device, and a C-3PO-themed controller. Check out the bundle below:

  • Activision announces the sequel to Skylanders Spyro’s Adventure which is Skylanders Giants. It is aimed at kids and their parents. If is as popular as the original title, it will be a big release this Fall.

Look, Up in the Sky!

The gaming news for today:
  • To the people that say PC gaming is dying or dead, you can go chock yourself with a wireless controller! PC gaming is still alive and kicking. This past week Steam, the PC digital distribution platform of games, just passed a huge mark. They had over 5 Million people logged into Steam and playing a game. I bet you can guess what game it was. Yep, Skyrim!
  • Well Factor 5 was working on a Man of Steel version of Batman: Arkham Asylum/Arkham City, but it was cancelled before anything could happen. They have released what some of the characters would look like. To me it would have been a decent game if it was any way like a superman version of Batman: Arkham City. I'll post a picture of what Superman would have look like at the bottom of the page.
  • If you are not watching CES, you should be. Sony announced a new portable platform called The  PlayStation Vita and man does it seem cool for a portable platform. Thats all i'm going to say now, but Friday will be my CES overview. I will be talking about everything I love seeing.
  • Activision has plans to release another Call of Duty game this year. From the domains they have registered many believe it to be Black Ops 2. Then again, they do own the domains for Black Ops 2 through 6. I don't think a dying series like Call of Duty can last that long. Just saying!

QOTD: Do you think they should make a Superman game like the most recent Batman games? Would it be as good?
