Our ‘Best DLC’ award winners for 2008 are at it again. Criterion are about to release yet another free update for Burnout Paradise.

So what can you expect from this latest downloadable delectation?
Monday’s patch will have numerous behind the scenes fixes like stability improvements and whatnot, but the gem in this patch is a fix for the competitive and cooperative character level 1 reset bug. Not only will all your previous XP/stats/attributes come back intact, but it will also add up all the XP/stats/attributes that you may have earned since the bug ate your stuff. Awesome news.
Medal and Trophy problems are being addressed as well, like the “Killing Machine†trophy bug. If you already met the requirement for a Trophy but you still haven’t earned it, it will pop up right after the patch works its magic. Read on for the main patch details.
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves media blow-out. Eleven screen-shots. Six art pieces. All absolutely beautiful.

Even when she was alive.
Part 2 1/2 is upon thee.

Nothing too exciting this week amidst the usual content of Guitar Hero and Rock Band tracks. For those of you who want to give your brain a little challenge the Brain Challenge Expansion Pack has received a price drop. I guess it was so challenging that nobody wanted to play it.

Majiesto, our other ‘yank’ told me never to play with him ever again and kicked me off the summer baseball league…why?
The last in our four part series (and flagrantly late – sorry about that) we take a look at the Games of 2009 from the end of the alphabet. Team Ico’s project, Uncharted 2, The Witcher – there’s some good ones in here people.
Join PS3 Attitude’s most colorful (albeit white-skinned) character as he delves into all things Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix from his twisted unique point of view. Some may argue that ‘demented’ is a more appropriate adjective than ‘colorful’ but we won’t pay attention to the voices in my head today. Part 1 is here to stay.

Retro. That is the buzzword for the era. With PS1 games on the PSN and rumours of PS2 games to follow suit, what would we like to see make the jump into the 21st Century?
More Importantly, what would you like to see dragged kicking and/or screaming into the modern age?
