Gears of War goes Platinum Hits ... in Japan
Gears of War has officially gone Platinum Hits and received the discounted price tag for our friends in Japan. But you can still get a copy, because Play-Asia has the cheaper and region-free GoW Platinum Hits title for only $29 with $3 in shipping charges. Not too shabby. Also, if you are a proud owner of a Japanese Xbox 360, you can pick up a Platinum Hits double pack featuring both Gears of War and Dead Rising and for $49. Also, not too shabby. Our only question to Microsoft is; when the heck does Western civilization get Platinum Gears?

Bionic Commando and his multi-purpose claw
That's all well and good, but we can't help but feel that Capcom has overlooked a prime gameplay opportunity: long range tickling.

Mark your calendars, DMC4 confirmed for February
Ever since Capcom made it official that Devil May Cry 4 was headed to the Xbox 360, everyone has been wondering exactly when that time will come. But now that release date guessing game is over (for the most part), because Capcom has made it official ... DMC4 will be landing on the Xbox 360 February 2008. No specific date has been pinned just yet, so we advise waiting to set your countdown clocks. And since February is still a ways out we think you should treat yourself to the latest DMC4 trailer which we embedded above. 2008 can't come soon enough.
Video: Capcom's Dark Void is full of jet packs
Dark Void. Sounds like a great name for a sci-fi adventure game if we ever heard one. It kind of reminds us of darkness and big empty voids ... maybe that's what the marketing team behind the name was going for. The name also reminds us of space travel, jet packs, gyroscopes and a hero who isn't afraid of punching the daylights out of a person who gets up in his face. And that friends is exactly what Capcom's newly announced sci-fi action game Dark Void is all about or so we think. Because we sort of based all those facts off our experience of watching the game's official trailer that's embedded above. Go ahead, take in the Dark Void and enjoy.

XBLA to get Commando 3 (AKA MERCS)
Eurogamer reports that Capcom plans to release a third game in its Commando series on Xbox Live Arcade. Better known as MERCS in the United States, Commando is a top down arcade shooter. Commando 3 is set to feature 3 uniquely equipped characters as well as co-op vehicles. The game is being developed by Backbone (they seem to make everything on XBLA, don't they?) and is scheduled to release this winter for 800 MS Points. Naturally, it will support online leaderboards and the like, though online play has not been confirmed at this time. We're going to go out on a limb and say the feature is probably in there.[Thanks, Tony]

New Bionic Commando latches onto 360
Say what you will about the current generation of video games, but it's not quite as advanced as you may think. No, for many gamers, game design has never really advanced past one game. We are, of course, talking about Bionic Commando for the NES. Frankly, today's games don't feature nearly enough telescoping bionic limbs. Oh sure, a few games have different grappling devices, but none of them have eclipsed the mastery of an 8-bit bionic implant. It is with no small amount of glee, then, that we reveal that Capcom has announced a new sequel to the nearly 20-year-old title. Featuring a re-imagined storyline, which ditches both the Nazis of the Japanese version and the Badds of the American and European versions, the new Bionic Commando centers around Nathan Spencer. Imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, he is released because the government that framed him needs his unique abilities to stop a terrorist threat that has already destroyed a major city. As Spencer, players will use his bionic arm to both navigate the ruined city and combat the enemies that now inhabit it.
No release date has been given. Considering it's already been 20 years though, we can wait a little longer. Check out a video discussing the new game after the break.
SSFIITHDR sprite watch: Cammy & M. Bison
We always love checking out new sprites for the upcoming (deep breath) Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix (whew!). Today we bring you two of the latest additions, M. Bison and Cammy. Now, we're not knocking scantily clad women in video games -- far from it -- but something about this Cammy sprite is just wrong. It's like a train wreck. We don't want to stare, but we can't look away. If you find yourself with a similar conundrum, you'd best make the jump and check out the new sprite of M. Bison.
LGC07 Devil May Cry 4 trailer on XBLM
For those of you that missed it the first time, the Devil May Cry 4 trailer that was released during the Leipzig Games Convention is now available on Xbox Live Marketplace. The trailer is more or less an extended version of the Tokyo Game Show trailer from last year. It introduces players to both Dante and Nero, the game's protagonists. There are also some shots of what appear to be villains as well, including the requisite scantily-clad, large-breasted dominatrix. If you've yet to experience it in HD, you might as well go download it now. Frankly, we're waiting for Capcom to give us something new.
X3F interview: SSFII Turbo HD Remix
With all the fuss surrounding Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, we decided to shoot a few questions over to the folks at Capcom Digital. Despite the gorgeous new look, there are a few concerns about the new iteration of the series. Hardcore fans are worried about how new sprites will affect years of heavy practice and study. Will the redesign render you years of hard earned skill moot? What kind of Live support will the game have? What about revisiting other franchises? We got the answers from SSFIITHDR's producer, Rey Jimenez.
