Dante is back as the main character, this time undergoing a bit of a character redesign: shorter black hair, and a much longer coat. Initial reviews on DMC are quite favorable, with a 9/10 from Game Informer, 8.5 from IGN, and 84.44% overall on GameRankings. DMC is out Jan. 14.
BioShock Ultimate Rapture Edition (PS3 & Xbox 360) - To get you prepared for the release of BioShock: Infinite, 2K releases on Jan. 14 Ultimate Rapture Edition, which includes BioShock, BioShock 2, all DLC and never-before-seen concept art. The game retails for $29.99
