According to Tommy Rydling from DICE on a post at the Official PS Blog all the first “full-blown” DLC packs for Battlefield 3 will come a week early for the Playstation 3. The first DLC will be Back to Karkand: four of the most loved maps from Battlefield 2, boldly reimagined in the Frostbite 2 engine. It also features new weapons and vehicles, unique in-game dog tags, new persistence, as well as new Trophies. Everyone who pre-orders the Limited Edition (at no increased cost) gets this for free. It will be downloadable from PSN for $10 along with other retailer exclusive pre-order incentives. Personally I have pre-ordered BF3 for the DLC with no extra costs and obviously because the game looks incredible. This is an interesting move, considering BF3 direct competitor Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 has secured timed exclusivity for all DLC on XBox 360, furthermore increasing the competition between both games AND consoles. What do you guys think, is this a good thing or one week is not really relevant?

Lonesome Road, the fourth add-on pack for Fallout: New Vegas, is now available for download on the PlayStation Network. “In Lonesome Road you are contacted by the original Courier Six, a man by the name of Ulysses who refused to deliver the Platinum Chip at the start of Fallout: New Vegas. Ulysses promises the answer as to why he didn’t take the job, but only if you make one last journey into the hurricane-swept canyons of the Divide, a landscape torn apart by earthquakes and violent storms. It’s up to you whether you take the job or not.”

What do you guys think of the new “Long Live Play” slogan? I have always been a fan of “It Only Does Everything”, but I could get used to it. Specially if it means more KB!
