Oh how we love the renaissance. Grand architecture, inventive thinkers, assassin’s villas. Yo, Assassin’s Creed II attempts to capture it all. In the final developer diary for next week’s blockbuster release, Ubisoft detail the uses of Ezio’s safehouse – a place where the cold blooded killer can kick his feet up and read 15th century literature. Well, sort of. The safehouse sounds a bit like the groggy apartments from GTA. Just much posher.

What's That Facebook On My XMB!?

That’s a nice selling point you had there for a few weeks Microsoft. Looks like it’s not going to remain exclusive for long though, as rumours mount that Facebook will join the realm of Playstation 3 features with the next Firmware Update.

Images were originally posted by ScrawlFX, clearly showing Facebook integration aswell as coloured trophy cards and tidier photo browsing. At first we would have said “Photoshop(!),” but the fine folks at ScrawlFX have noted the images are also currently uploaded to uk.playstation.com’s website.

Obviously we’re not meant to see these yet. But we have, so all we’re left questioning is – why the hell is Facebook access hidden in the “Account Setup” area of the XMB. Could this be some sort of trophy interaction used in conjunction with your Facebook profile? And why are the images in Spanish on uk.playstation.com’s website?

Something Big Regarding FFXIII Is Being Unveiled On The European Playstation Blog This Week.

You know something’s going to be either exciting or disappointing when a company feel it’s necessary to announce an announcement. But that’s exactly what Square Enix have done in regards to Final Fantasy XIII, which is due an uber announcement over at the European Playstation Blog this Friday.

What’s most interesting about the announcement is the tie to both the Playstation Blog and the European arm of that. The fact the announcement is coming directly from an official Playstation news source suggests it’s likely to be something Sony related. Time will tell exactly what, but Square Enix are counting down to it.

What do you people reckon?

We Hear The Single Player Campaign's Pretty Good, Perhaps You'll Have To Put Up With That Until Things Are Sorted.

So we guess patch number three is on the way then? Since yesterday’s launch of Modern Warfare 2 we’ve already had two patches; today’s released to fix the fucked-up trophy unlocks. Sadly, while we can confirm patch 1.02 has fixed trophies, it’s totally borked the online multiplayer which, well, doesn’t work at all.

Hopefully Infinity Ward can turn out a patch as soon as possible. It’s frustrating that something as basic as a trophy fix could totally bork the online multiplayer which was working flawlessly yesterday.

Sigh.

Remember When We Said Modern Warfare 2 Was Officially A Pretty Big Deal? Chyeah.

As expected, Modern Warfare 2’s launch was a major deal in the UK. The game sold a whopping 1.23 million units in its first 24 hours or so; absolutely crushing Grand Theft Auto IV’s 631,000 units. The Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association described the launch as “interactive entertainment [...] come of age.”

Apparently, Infinity Ward’s shooter grossed £47million in first day sales, a number which is only going to go higher and higher and higher as the year closes out.

It’s pretty crazy stuff to be honest. Honestly, we’ve never seen anything quite like it. Our review goes online tomorrow. Verdict: pretty good.

Stephen Peterson knows his God Of War, and thus he’d like to give you some advice on how to get the “15 Minute Fight Scene” trophy in the upcoming God Of War Collection. The game launches next week and if you’ve had a little break from God Of War for a while, Stephen’s advice might be paramount in helping you get those two platinums.

We’ve seen quite a bit of Just Cause 2’s grappling hook in various trailers over the past few months, but the latest mini-documentary from developers Avalance really goes into detail with the mechanic. For example, you can totally tether an enemy to another enemy, sticking them together and giving you an advantage. You can also hook enemies up to helicopters, or even whip people with it.

It’s just more evidence that Just Cause 2 continues to be a game that should be on most people’s radar.

Sony Should Take Note: People Want Gold PS3s.

Colorware are crazy. Crazy but so, so cool. They intend to drop five PS3 Slims into 24k gold. Why? Because it looks great. Colorware intend to only produce five. We want one.

Chopping Up Death Is All In A Days Work For Ol' Dante.

Visceral Games’ God Of War inspired Dante’s Inferno will not see the light of day until February. It will however, get a demo as soon as next month. The demo, entitled “The Gates Of Hell”, will allow players to traverse an entire level, taking them from the Earth’s surface to a showdown with Death himself.

Gam’es hardcore, yo.
