In this edition of Weekend Recap, Xbox Live gets two treasured Saturn games, Master Chief loses a soldier, and a female zombie-slayer battles gender discrimination.


Who farted?
Rockstar Games confirmed that they will finally release third-person shooter Max Payne 3 in March of 2012. What has Max been doing for the past eight years?

 

Boobs!
Publisher Square Enix will release Dragon Quest 10: Rise of the Five Tribes on both the Wii and Wii U some time in 2012. Rumors say this entry in the ultra-popular RPG franchise will play similar to World of Warcraft.


Like a hot knife through butter
Ryan Payton, Halo 4’s creative director, has left 343 Industries to create his own game studio called Camouflaj. While he enjoyed his time working with Microsoft, Payton said he was no longer "creatively excited" about Master Chief’s upcoming adventure.


Bring it!
Two of developer Treasure’s most beloved Sega Saturn games are coming to Xbox Live Arcade. Vertically-scrolling shooter Radiant Silvergun lands this month, and fantasy brawler Guardian Heroes will hit in October.


Nice legs. When do they open?
A Steam user found a hidden line of code in the PC version of Dead Island that refers to a skill used by a female playable character (Purna) as “Feminist Whore.” That special ability, called “Gender Wars” in the actual game, gives Purna a 15 percent damage boost against male characters. Not even in the face of a zombie apocalypse can women escape sexism.

Treasure finally released them? Wow, I'll have to try them out in the next few weeks.

That Dragon Quest 10 is pretty funny. I guess that's what the Wii U controller was meant for.

Max Payne's face really creeps me out. It's like the face of a Sour Patch kid. That's why I never played the old games.

I'll finally get to play Guardian Heroes. The only Saturn game I got a chance to try was Clockwork Knight.

A few dating sims would make the Wii U a huge success!

It was disappointing not seeing Mark Whalberg make that face in the Max Payne movie. Fail!

My friend and I have been running through dungeons for quite some time in DQ9. We always talked about how it should be MMO. This will definitely force him to get a WiiU.

It sounds like a pretty good idea. I'm really interested to see how well the Wii U handles online multiplayer.
