Final Fantasy VII cheats (PS3, PSP, PS1). Guides on how to beat the Weapons, find Knights of the Round Materia, get Ultimate Weapons and breed Gold Chocobos
Below is a list of cheats, codes, secrets, tips, hints and video guides for Final Fantasy VII, the hit classic RPG that is now available on PlayStation Network for play on PS3 and PSP (originally released for PS1 in 1997).
HOW TO BEAT THE WEAPONS
The strongest bosses in Final Fantasy VII aren’t the normal game bosses but rather the Weapons, which are the tougher than even the end-game boss. These formidable opponents symbolize the Planet’s will to protect itself. They are released as you make your way through the game, which means they will automatically appear after a certain point. You can fight most of them at any point after they appear, although it’s not wise to do so because they are so powerful. You can see these five giant beasts during the Crater FMV where they will rush to various parts of the world.
You will defeat most of these hopefully during the course of the game. Two of them however are entirely optional: Ruby Weapon and Emerald Weapon. Here are video strategies on how to beat them both. Read this article for super detailed info on how to beat the Final Fantasy VII Weapons.
How to beat Emerald Weapon:
You can find Emerald Weapon (a giant looking green “robot”) swimming underwater when you dive under the ocean with the submarine. Here are two video guides showing how to beat him.

Fallout 3 Point Lookout DLC released
The fourth downloadable content pack for Fallout 3, Point Lookout, is now available for Xbox 360 and PC (PS3 players won’t get it until the previous packs have been released on the platform). On the Xbox 360 it is priced at 800 Microsoft Points. I imagine the PC price point is $10 as well.
Point Lookout opens up a massive new area of the Wasteland: a dark, murky swampland along the coast of Maryland. A completely new quest line allows you uncover the town’s hidden secrets and wield powerful new weapons like the Double-Barrel Shotgun against the swamp’s dangerous, and deformed, denizens known as Hillfolk.
Here is a trailer for Fallout 3’s Point Lookout DLC.
Aion MMO release date is September 22nd, 2009
Publisher NCSoft has announced a U.S. release date of September 22nd, 2009 for Aion: The Tower of Eternity, their highly anticipated MMORPG in which players can literally spread their wings and fly as they play a key role in a war between beings that will determine the fate of the world. Aion will launch in Europe on September 25th, three days after the North American launch.
If you haven’t heard of Aion, it will cut a unique swath into the MMO marketplace by offering a game in which flight is an intergral part of every aspect of the title. Not only will you get to adventure through the skies exploring their brilliant in-air structures, but flight will also be an integral part of combat and quests.
In Aion players will dive into battle and plunge through thousands of unique, story-driven quests, all while trying to save a world literally shattered in half from centuries of brutal conflict. Using one of the most flexible and in-depth character customization systems ever featured in an MMO, players will be able to create genuinely distinct characters and explore a visually stunning world of ethereal beauty brimming with otherworldly inhabitants, mysterious enemies, and ancient secrets.
Along with the hitting retail stores, Aion will also be available for download via Steam, Direct2Drive, or directly from NCsoft.com. There is also an Aion preorder promotion that gives players access to Aion Closed Beta events that they can partake in.

The Sims 3 DLC and community used to effectively stop piracy
Electronic Arts has discovered the secret to combating piracy . . . offer the legit consumer features and content that they simply cannot get with a “gimped” pirated version, which amounts to basically a “demo” of the real deal.
Speaking to IndustryGamers, EA CEO John Riccitiello joked about how the leaked pirated version of The Sims 3 served as a “secret marketing campaign” to give gamers a taste of the real thing, much like a demo. Why does it only offer a taste? Because a slew of content is downloaded and added to your Sims 3 game once you have purchased a real copy of the game and registered it. Including an entire extra city.
“The Sims 3 has a massive amount of content, and a lot of it is downloaded once you register with EA. For the pirate consumer, they don’t get the second town, they don’t get all the extra content, and they don’t get the community. [The piracy] was only concentrated on Poland and China, but I think of it as not being that different than a demo” Riccitiello said.
“I think that’s the answer [to piracy],” he explains further. “It’s not the answer because this foils a pirate, but it’s the answer because it makes the service so valuable that in comparison the packaged good is not. So you can only deliver these added services to a consumer you recognize and know…I think the truth is we’ve out-serviced the pirate.”
And offering additional content in this way is a growing trend among developers, who are using these extra incentives to not only combat piracy, but also combat used game sales.
Personally I think that this is the perfect way to combat piracy. Incentives are what drive people. For example, I am much more likely to pre-order a new CD if it comes with a t-shirt. Cause that completely ups the value of the package. And if I were to simply download a pirated version of the CD, I wouldn’t get the shirt.
