Who the hell called Dead Island Game of the Year?!
Here at PixlBit we try to report news and provide articles with as little bias as possible, but sometimes we just have to let loose and just let our true feelings be known on a particular subject. It is in this spirit that we introduce “Rage Quit,” a new series that will see one of the PixlBit staffers go off without having to worry about the little things like common decency.
Game of the Year? Seriously?
In an announcement that is sure to surprise more than a few, a Game of the Year Edition of Dead Island will be hitting store shelves on June 26, 2012 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Gearbox seems really excited about Borderlands 2 and wants you to be as well. In a recent post on the PlayStation Blog, producer Matt Charles showed off the special editions of Borderlands 2 and answered fan questions, revealing some of the features, changes, and improvements the new game will have.
The contents are interesting to say the least.
Limited editions are nothing new in the video game industry, in fact it seems that nearly any game that garners even a mild interest from the gaming public is due to at least offer a limited edition preorder bonus of some sort. With so many limited, special or enhanced editions of games out there, it’s sometimes hard to be surprised when they’re announced, but every now and then a limited edition is revealed that is sure to turn a few heads, even if it’s only because of the interesting nature of its contents.

Psst, Tekken team, online modes don't have to be broken.
Tekken 3D Prime Edition broke my heart. Over the past five or six days, I had the opportunity to really get to know Tekken and I've come to understand and enjoy its brand of fighting. Past efforts proved fruitless; but something clicked this time. At its core, Tekken 3D Prime Edition is really just a stripped down port of Tekken 6, complete with the full (enormous) roster unlocked from the get-go. Sounds great, no? Well, it was… until I took it online. Here the ugly monster within sprung free – just like Tekken 6, the online mode is broken; a shot through my love-struck heart.
