Dead Island DLC Allows You To Play From A New Perspective

The first DLC for Dead Island will allow players to see the zombie outbreak on Banoi from a different perspective as they play as Ryder White.

"I always like to think of antagonist characters not as evil, but simply….misunderstood," says Marketing & PR Aubrey Norris. "Ryder White was obviously suffering from a massive case of beast mood in Dead Island, and I think it's only fair we got to learn his side of the story."

The DLC allows the player to take control of the villain, Ryder White and allows them to follow a new story and bash and/or shoot some good ol' zombies. But that's not all that comes with the DLC; the DLC will also include two new blueprints and weapons for players to use against the flesh eating zombies.

The Ryder White DLC will be out on January 31 for $9.99 on the PlayStation 3, on February 1, it will be available on the Xbox 360 for 800 Microsoft Points and on Steam for $9.99.

Mass Effect 3 Won't Be Available On Steam

It's not surprise that EA has announced that Mass Effect 3 won't be available on Steam, and it's not more of a surprise that all PC versions, digital and retail, will require EA's Origin service.

Earlier this year Crysis 2 and Dragon Age 2 were pulled from Steam for "restrictive terms of service", and according to BioWare Community Coordinator Chris Priestly, that's the same reason Mass Effect 3 will not be available on Steam.

"During initial release Mass Effect 3 will be available on Origin and a number of other 3rd party digital retailers, but not on Steam at this time," says Priestly. "Steam has adopted a set of restrictive terms of service which limit how developers interact with customers to deliver patches and other downloadable content.  We are intent on providing Mass Effect to players with the best possible experience no matter where they purchase or play their game, and are happy to partner with any download service that does not restrict our ability to connect directly with our consumers."

It is unknown whether or not EA and Valve will have their old relationship back, but let's just hope that things will get resolved before the release of Mass Effect 3.
