  • God Of War: Ascension Pre-Order Extra Is Sparta Approved.

    How About Some Leonidas With Your Kratos?

    In today’s video game culture it is normal to have different retailers offer you assorted pre-order bonuses to get you to reserve a game at their store. Gamestop may have jumped the Spartan shark with their latest bit of offer for the upcoming God of War: Ascension.

    When you reserve the game at any Gamestop you will be able to download a set of armor and a special spear from the movie 300. You know, that hot movie that came out five years ago. So should we just assume with this offer that Kratos and Leonidas are in the same Spartan canon? Probably not but let’s say it is true to make this seem more fun.

    God of War: Ascension releases on March 13, 2013.

  • Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 Care Package Doesn’t Care About Your Wallet

    Not to be outdone by Borderlands 2’s Loot Chest, Activision has announced the Care Package for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2. The chest comes equipped with all the bells and whistles that will let everyone know in the parking lot of Gamestop that you love Call of Duty more than anyone. A steelbook edition of the game, excluisive DLC maps, 360 avatars, PS3 themes are what to expect with any type of collector’s edition of a game but the real draw of this has to be the remote-controlled MQ-27 Dragonfire Drone because….well it flies. Yeah.

    The Care Package will set you back $180 so get to saving.
