Capcom Confirms Killer Line-Up for Eurogamer Expo - Push Square http://t.co/4M4KKHrH via @pushsquare

Wow, Far Cry 3 gets delayed - now out in EU on 29th November, 4th December in North America. At least it's not Q1 2013, though!

Mario Tennis history by Nintendo. Lovely to see Waluigi's 64-bit debut honoured, too. Stay angry, skinny dude: http://t.co/JYSd41tb

Just got an official Nintendo infographic that acknowledges the Virtual Boy. Whatever next? SEGA owning up to 32X?

Added my Hori EX2 Xbox 360 fight stick to my eBay clear-out. No need for it now I’ve got VF5FS on PS3! Take a look: http://t.co/jPfH7uFC

Steelbook and more

Every big release needs a special edition, and Capcom's Resident Evil 6 is no exception. The publisher's just lifted the lid on its collector's edition for Europe and Australia, and it's a whopper.

Here's what the package contains:

• Resident Evil 6 Game
• Zombie Steel Book
• Exclusive RE6 hardback artbook showing concept art from the game
• Resident Evil 6 Dynamic Theme for PS3 owners
• Ivy University, Tall Oaks hooded sweatshirt (one size)
• ‘The Resident Evil 6 forces emblems’ – High quality enamelled zinc alloy emblems of the three main protagonists squad insignias, mounted and set in a limited numbered frame authenticated with signatures from Senior producer Hiroyuki Kobayashi , Producer Yoshiaki Hirabayashi and Resident Evil 6 Director Eiichiro Sasaki. A must have piece for any fan of Resident Evil.
• All of the above amazing goodies are bundled together in the lenticular ‘Needle Bomb’ collectors box (as seen in the announcement trailer)

If you don't want all these extra Resi gubbins® you can just pre-order the Steelbook edition from most retailers. You know you want that hoodie, though.
