DC Universe Online trophies can be yours for $15

After a tough week of server problems, Sony Online Entertainment has managed to deploy a fix that brings better stability to the DC Universe Online servers. The weight of new free-to-play users proved to be too much for the servers to handle. Those free users have access to almost all of the things as those that pay, but are limited in terms of character slots, available cash and even trophies. We thought now would be a good time to remind you new players out there that you won’t be unlocking any trophies if you aren’t a Legendary member.

Gamecock makes like an arcade at PAX 08

I have to admire the way Gamecock set up its booth at PAX 08. It was enclosed with transparent plastic and in very low light, like arcades of the ’80s. To complete the illusion of a video arcade, players would even stand up as they played the game in arcade-style casings.

Gamecock’s PAX 2008 lineup

Gamecock has also announced a list of the five games it will be displaying at Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) 2008, which runs from August 29-31, 2008. It has a pretty well rounded display set up, featuring games for the Xbox 360, DS, Wii and PC. So only Sony system owners will feel left out if they drop by Gamecock’s booth. (Don’t worry Sony fans! Gamecock is working on PS3 versions of some of the games displayed at PAX 2008.)

While Gamecock has an admirable game display set up, you won’t be able to actually play all of the titles – one (Velvet Assassin) will only shown in presentations by Replay Studios developers. Still, with four games to enjoy, you’ll want to stop by and play a demo or two.

The games appear at the event are as follows…

Gamecock announces Legendary release date, graphic novel, pre-order bonus

The present day mythical creature kill-a-thon known as Legendary is a little longer than a month away from being released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 (and later for PC). When the game is released on September 30, 2008, on consoles (November 4, 2008, for PC), players will enter the body of Charles Deckard, a thief who opens Pandora’s Box in New York City.

GameCock is offering a special bonus for those who choose to pre-order Legendary at participating retailers. Also, on the same day of the game’s releases, a graphic novel based on Legendary will also be available…
