Resistance 2 players are going to get a few presents this Thursday, but excuse us for wrecking the surprise, with the help of TSA.
First off, there will be the Aftermath Map Pack, featuring, you guessed it, some maps, and some new characters skins. However, there is something a great deal more interesting coming, too, and it takes the form of a patch.
The patch will enable two players to both log into their own Playstation Network account on one PS3, enabling them to level-up their online profiles next to each other on the couch.
This hasn’t previously been implemented because it was not possible without a firmware update. This seems to imply that there will be a firmware update before Thursday, though we can not be certain, we can sure as hell hope. Cross your fingers, children.
Ubisoft is looking to introduce a hardcore mode for all versions of Far Cry 2 in its next patch release.
The new mode, which is for multiplayer gaming, has been created due to fan requests for a more realistic experience.
Here’s what will happen:
* A new damage model will be applied with increased damage for all weapons
* All weapons have been rebalanced on normal mode, and on hardcore mode
* Enemy names will disappear after the spawning invincibility period is over (a shield is displayed above a player’s head for a few second to show that he is invincible)
* A new option will allow you to tweak spawning time (but not spawning rate).
* A new search option will be available in multiplayer to allow you to find games that are playing on hardcore mode.
Ubisoft hasn’t set a date yet, but will let us all know when they have.
A lot of people know, that once you’ve finished Fallout 3, that’s it, no more continuing the game, or doing side quests.
All that is about to be changed with a new patch. 360 and PC gamers will now be able to continue playing the game’s quests (and the new DLC, obviously) even after the game’s ending, thanks to the new patch.
What about the PS3? When asked if PS3 players will get the same patch Tod Howard, the game’s executive producer, replied:
“Not at this time, no.”
It sucks to be a PS3 Fallout player right about now.

A spokesman from Lionhead has told videogaming247.com that a release date for Fable 2’s Knothole Island DLC is “very close”:
“We’re very close to a release date for the DLC, plus the patch of course,” said the spokesman.
As we know, Knothole Island was pushed back a few months due to “technical difficulties”. Those of us who know of Fable’s development history can only hope that this will be the only delay.
