The Early Bird Gets to Wait

Alan Wake’s first add-on episode, The Signal, was released on the Xbox Live Marketplace today – hurrah! If you bought the game “new” you should have received a token, allowing free access to the game’s first episode of downloadable content – double hurrah!

The problem with this was loads of people (including myself), scratched away the strip and redeemed their free code right away after opening the game at launch – something the token never warned against might I add.

Well those unlucky few that redeemed too early were suffered to wait today until Microsoft sent out the new codes. Some received their replacement code straight away while others, like me, still haven’t received anything.

For those of you still waiting, make sure your email address is tied to your Xbox Live account and keep checking back for updates. Oh and don’t forget to check out The Signal’s official trailer after the break, we should be in for a treat judging by the look of it – I wouldn’t know though. Read more »

With the impending release of Army of Two: The 40th Day creeping upon us, the games stars Salem and Rios head down to the capital to wreak havoc in a promotional stop-off. Although it’s just CG I deem this a great start to the year for us Brits, who are normally shafted when it comes to anything video game related. Don’t believe us? Would you believe we’re still waiting on that God of War: Collection?
