As of a few hours ago the PSN Welcome Back Package has been added to the PSN Store. It is Sony’s first step in trying to appease disgruntled customers after the “Great PSN Outage of 2011” and personally I think it’s fantastic. It’s running a bit slow at the moment which is pretty standard considering the fact that a few million people are all trying to grab their free games straight away, so you may get error messages while trying to access it. It might be a good idea to wait a few hours before you hit it, so while you wait, here is a list of the games you can choose from and a few of the other perks you can look forward to. Read more…

About a week ago, I was in my local games store and having a chat (see: flirting shamelessly) with one of the employees when LA Noire came up. He hadn’t played it yet, but he was very keen to, and asked me how it was. My response?

In this weeks App Dance I have a few stats that I thought were worth a mention, I have been attempting to stream divx shows from the PC to the iPad with 2 apps available, playing a few games and using the iPad to read magazines.

With only a few weeks left before the release, the Dukes developers are really amping up the marketing for this very very very long awaiting game.

Unfortunately on this week’s episode SiouxsieKate couldn’t join us, so it’s just Matt and Lucas. On the upside we are releasing an episode quick enough that the content is actually relevant! Yayyy! We discuss the PSN Welcome Back program, the announcement of the brand new Australian gaming convention EB Games Expo, and the Gears of War 3 collectors editions. We have kept the episode a bit short this week but we hope you enjoy it!
