Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment today confirmed that Robin will be a fully playable character in the new and improved challenge mode in Batman: Arkham City. The Tim Drake Robin pack is currently available exclusively to North American fans who pre-order the game from Best Buy on any of the platforms for which the game will be available: Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, Games for Windows PC and the PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system.

Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City – five times larger than the game world in Batman: Arkham Asylum – and the new maximum security “home” for all of Gotham City’s thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand-new story that draws together a new, all-star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

][ Games Announce Dyad For The PS3 PSN, An 1080p 60fps Abstract Racing Game

][ Games have revealed their debut game is coming to the PS3 PSN and its called Dyad. they describe the game as an Abstract Racer that has many influences including racing games, fighting games, puzzle games and classic arcade shooters. the game has been in development for the last 3 years and it supports 60fps and 1080p.

In Dyad you have to grab onto the enemy particles on the screen to boost your speed, either through just grabbing or by grabbing and bursting through them. the game will introduce new mechanics as you play, but it starts with a simple combo system, which is centred around the polarity of enemies. they admit the game is a very deep hardcore racing/puzzle game, but they've designed it to be enjoyed at many levels by many different people.
