Metal Gear Online will be getting a new expansion pack next month, containing three new maps and two new characters. Dubbed SCENE, the expansion pack will also include new gear, and a couple surprises. As the expansion pack can be purchased out side of the PlayStation Store, Konami have added PayPal support to their store in addition to using your PlayStation Network Wallet. Also, if you pre-order the pack, through Metal Gear Online‘s in-game shop or Konami’s shop, there?s a special gift in store. Check out the trailer below.
The new characters include Raiden and Vamp, both with impressive special abilities and offensive power to spare! The new maps are Outer Outlet, an all new environment that takes place in a commercial mall area made up of lots of buildings and subterranean areas. Hazard House, set in a huge three story mansion, and Ravaged Riverfront, a take on the Eastern European environment.
As we reported yesterday, the Warhawk Command Center is now live in PlayStation Home. Dylan Jobe, game director for Warhawk, has created a video to walk you through the game space and it’s various features. To promote the new game space, the price of Warhawk and the booster packs have been reduced on the PlayStation Store for the next two weeks. You can pick up the fill game for $19.99 and the booster packs for $4.99 each or $9.99 for all three.
In a update on the PlayStation.Blog, MediaMolecule has announced new search feature to be included in the PlayStation 3 version of LittleBigPlanet. The blog post also reiterated that a PSP version of LBP is in development, but will not affect downloadable content for the PlayStation 3 version. The new search features will allow gamers to search for specific levels using PSN IDs, as well as keyword search (see below for details). New downloadable content is also on the way, including Killzone 2, Buzz! Quiz and Heavenly Sword costumes.
How level search will work:
@ searches for a specific author (e.g. @Sackboy)
searches for words in a level’s title (e.g. PSP yields level names with "PSP" in it)
‘ ‘ (single quotes) will search for the input word on level titles and descriptions
" " (double quotes) just like in search engines, searches for exact phrases
You can combine these techniques for a more comprehensive search.
Today, PlayStation Home will be getting an update adding several new features to the online world. The biggest of these features is the Warhawk Command Center (or Game Space). The Command Center will allow gamers to discuss the game, strategize their next attack (using the interactive sand table), and launch directly into the game. Once the Game Space is live, Sony will be hosting a launch party at the Command Center so drop by if you can.
In other changes, some Street Fighter IV clothing will be integrated into Home too. Items can be unlocked when you perform certain actions in the game. Gamers will be able to get their hands on Chun Li, Ryu, Guile, and Ken costumes.
