Called the “Insane Edition” for its wealth of special items, Ubisoft is upping the ante in terms of single-player goodness. For an as-yet-undisclosed amount extra, you can get: a bobble head of the main villain, two single-player missions adding approximately 2 hours of gameplay, a mini-strategy guide, a hunting rifle, dagger, tattoos, and several other items for both single and multi-player. It is currently only scheduled for a European release but odds are good it will see the light of day in America as well.

As of now, Far Cry 3 is still scheduled for release on September 4th, 2012 on Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

“When we announced the release date of BioShock Infinitein March, we felt pretty good about the timing. Since then, we’ve uncovered opportunities to make Infinite into something even more extraordinary, therefore, to give our talented team the time they need to deliver the best Infinite possible, we’ve decided to move the game’s release to February,” said Ken Levine, Irrational Games’ creative director.

I won’t kid you: BioShock Infinite is a very big game, and we’re doing things that no one has ever done in a first-person shooter. We had a similar experience with the original BioShock, which was delayed several months as our original ship date drew near. Why? Because the Big Daddies weren’t the Big Daddies you’ve since come to know and love. Because Andrew Ryan’s golf club didn’t have exactly the right swing. Because Rapture needed one more coat of grimy Art Deco.

The same principle now applies to BioShock Infinite.

What does this mean for you? It means a bit more waiting, but more importantly, it means an even better BioShock Infinite. The great can be made greater, and we owe it to both ourselves and to you, our fans, to take this opportunity. Irrational Games is one of those rare developers lucky enough to ask the people who sign the cheques: ‘Hey, can we have a few more of those cheques?’

We are also going to hold off on showing BioShock Infinite at the big events of the summer, like E3 and GamesCom. That way, the next time you see our game, it will be essentially the product we intend to put in the box. Preparing for these events takes time away from development, time we’re going to use instead to get the best version of Infinite into your hands in February.”

While I can understand this delay frustrating fans of the series, I’m getting a bit tired of games I purchase being virtually unplayable for the first couple of days, so, hopefully, this helps in that department.

Avoiding the onslaught of titles being put out in the fall should also help the game’s sales numbers.

As someone who played a ton of Warhawk, I can attest to the huge fragmentation problem the game had after its three map packs were released. Well, it seems Dylan Jobe and the rest of the team also had and issue with the fragmentation, therefore, Lightbox Interactive will be releasing all of the map packs for Starhawk free of charge.

“We are incredibly excited to announce that all map packs for Starhawk will be free,” said Lightbox boss Dylan Jobe “Yeah, you read that right… FREE.”

“Whenever we release a map pack you won’t have to pay a friggin’ dime! And we’ve already started the early stages of our next map pack for you guys.”

While there won’t be paid maps, they have mentioned that paid DLC of some sort will be released.

Starhawk is out now. You can check out the launch trailer for the space-western themed third person shooter below.

Battlefield 3: Close Quarters – In Battlefield 3: Close Quarters, players are dropped into a frantic, infantry-only theatre of war. Frostbite 2 high definition destruction makes the environment come alive as everything from furniture to plaster gets shot to pieces. Players will feel the intensity of the world exploding around them as rubble and broken pieces pile up on the floor, while tight level design and vertical gameplay create a highly competitive environment. Battlefield 3: Close Quarters also introduces new weapons, assignments and unique dog tags to bring back to the base game.

Battlefield 3: Armored Kill– Following the tight infantry gameplay of Battlefield 3: Close Quarters, DICE will release Battlefield 3: Armored Kill that ups the ante for vehicular mayhem as only Battlefield can do.
