We may only know about two of the four Spidey settings to be featured in
Spider-Man: Shattered Dimension, but that hasn't stopped
GameStop from announcing that pre-orders of the game (on any console) will get access to a
Cosmic Spider-Man costume (which can be equipped in each of the game's four "universes"). Like in the comics, the extra-superpowered state of Cosmic Spider-Man will enable a "signature charge attack" that's exclusive to his costume, regardless of which world you're Spider-Manning around in.
Since GameStop didn't release an image of the Spidey iteration from its (presumably exclusive) pre-order bonus, we've dropped a picture of the totally rad Cosmic Spider-Man action figure above -- it's gotta look something like that in-game, right? And no, it's not a "doll." It's an
action figure.
[Thanks Joshua!]

When EA DICE decided to release some downloadable armaments in the original
Battlefield: Bad Company, it proved to be a fairly
unpopular decision. However, the recently found a way to outfox the gaming community, releasing
Bad Company 2 DLC without drawing our ire. How did the studio accomplish such a feat? Easy -- it just released the DLC in a
completely different game.
Battlefield Heroes recently
received a large push of content inspired by
Bad Company, including six modern weapons and the outfits of George Haggard and Kirilenko. Best of all, if you log onto
Heroes while using an account that's also linked to
Bad Company 2, you'll receive the Battlefunds required to purchase the new gear. Check out the new equipment in
the trailer posted after the jump.
[Thanks Graeme!]

Does your dead-eyed Home avatar lack a bit of that
buccaneering spirit? LucasArts has a sure-fire way to fix your lack of nautical flair: During its pirate-themed party at
GDC, the company announced that
Monkey Island costumes (pictured above) would soon make their way to PlayStation Home.
Now, we rarely get excited over virtual duds for our virtual manifestations -- but Stan's coat could really add a certain
savoir-faire to our
terrifying craft.

Further expanding on
LittleBigPlanet's catalog of costumes portraying PS3-exclusive game protagonists, Media Molecule has revealed that the next set of in-game duds will come from
White Knight Chronicles on February 25. According to
the PlayStation.Blog post announcing the new content, the costume pack will include the garbs of four of the RPG's legendary heroes: The White Knight, Black Knight, Dragon Knight, and ...
Leonard. One of these things is
significantly less awesome than the others.

Back in July, Lisa Foiles (of Nickelodeon's All That fame) wrote up a blog response to a post Owen Good wrote up about Girl Gamers.
In it she argued that girls who play games are not rare, but girl gamers are.
Tonight she sent along this pic of her dressed as Harley Quinn with a special message to Kotaku readers. Happy belated Halloween everyone.

Halloween is just around the corner, but you've still got time to make a sweet Bayonetta costume to prance about in Saturday night. Sega's Make-A-Witch Foundation website can help.
The degree of help Sega's website can give is relatively minimal, unfortunately. Suggestions include wearing a skin-tight cat suit, crafting butterfly wings so you can pretend you are always jumping, and making sure you get the attitude right, or no one will believe you are the witchy heroine of the upcoming game the website is actually an advertisement for. Here's an example of a helpful hint:
When it comes to defining characteristics, you'll be hard pressed to find another action heroine whose eyewear alone could be used to identify her. While you can't buy the butterfly-adorned sides of her frames over the counter, thin rectangular black rimmed glasses should do the trick.
Thin, rectangular black glasses? I've got those! Now all I need is the cat suit, some weapons, an attitude, and Crecente's hair and I am all set to scare the living hell out of children who dare knock on my door Saturday night. Thanks, Sega!

The night of
All Hallows' Eve is swiftly approaching. We're sure that, by now, you've got a rough outline of what pop culture icon you'll attempt to disguise yourself as. We're also sure that it's not one-tenth as awesome nor as intricate as the Covenant Elite (of
Halo fame) costume recently
created by YouTube user petemander1. That is, unless your Optimus Prime costume has animatronic, remote-controlled eyes and mandibles. No? It doesn't?
That's what we thought.
Check out the
two videos posted after the jump to get an early look at Pete's humbling (and slightly terrifying) creation. We'd say we can't wait to see how the full costume turns out, but we've already got plenty of subjects on which to base our nightmares.
