Ubisoft won't say what this 'superhero' concept design is for ... but it'll happily sell you a t-shirt of that design. Perhaps later, when the company actually reveals what this design (featuring "an old-time soviet exoskeleton?") is about, you'll be really cool for having the shirt even before it became a thing.

The design comes from UbiWorkshop's Concept Lab. Ubi's Julien Cuny teased some of the possible destinations for these images: "A comic book? Animated movie? Or live-action? A novel maybe? Anime? I don't know... a boardgame? Again, it's obviously not a video game..." Obviously? Again? The only "answer" provided is, "The best Superheroes are the ones you've never heard of," which suggests that the new property is about Batman erasing the entire world's memory.

The shirt will only be offered through December 6, for $20 CAD (also about $20 USD).

Call of Duty: Black Ops launched in Japan last week, and though it wasn't the major cultural phenomenon it was here, it managed to top the Media Create sales charts for the week of Nov. 15-21. Well, the PS3 version did, anyway, with 128,922 copies sold. The Xbox 360 version came in at #7 with 30,279 copies. This is just the subtitled release -- it'll get another sales boost in December when the dubbed version arrives.

Other success stories in Japan last week include the sequel to Fossil Fighters on DS at #2, Pokemon Black/White at #3, Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition at #4, and Tactics Ogre on PSP at #5. Black Ops trumped Colors last week, as Sonic raced to a #33 finish on Wii and #49 on DS.

Do you like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit enough to watch a trailer for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit? If so, that moderate, casual fandom could be rewarded with free DLC.

EA is offering a free three-pack of downloadable cars, including the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible, the Lamborghini Murcielago LP 650-4 Roadster, and the Dodge Viper SRT10 Convertible Final Edition -- if this latest trailer reaches one million views by December 12. We've embedded it after the break in such a manner as to encourage views. We'll stop short of telling you to Rickroll your friends with it, but if we've accidentally planted the idea in your mind, there's just nothing we can do about that.

[Thanks, Alexander]

Steam's "Give and Get" sale continues today, with yesterday's tempting one-day discounts giving way to an even better batch. You'll be able to buy the gorgeous Machinarium or Runic's dungeon jaunt, Torchlight, for $5 each. And if you're smart, you'll consider spending that same amount on the "Indie Clever Pack," which comprises World of Goo, VVVVVV, Eufloria, Doc Clock: The Toasted Sandwich of Time and Iron Grip: Warlord.

At the time of publishing (3PM EST), you have 22 hours left on the following options:

  • Machinarium -- $5
  • Torchlight -- $5
  • Indie Clever Pack -- $4.99
  • Blur -- $14.99
  • Tropico 3: Gold Edition -- $7.50
  • Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box -- $14.99
  • Empire: Total War -- $14.99
  • Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 2 Gold Edition -- $13.60
  • ARMA 2: Operation Arrowhead -- $19.99

Steam's gift packs for today include a Portal six-pack for $14.99 and ten copies of Irrational's Freedom Force for a patently silly $7.49.

Now you can try Telltale's Laytonesque puzzler Nelson Tethers: Puzzle Agent without even the teensy investment required for an iPhone game. The publisher has released "lite" versions of both Puzzle Agent and Puzzle Agent HD (for iPads and iPhone 4s), allowing you to get something new on your phone without dropping any cash.

If, however, you're more interested in spending small amounts of money than none, Telltale also launched a "30 Days of Telltale" sale today, offering a different discount every day through Christmas. It started off auspiciously enough, with 50% off everything in the Telltale store, except for the new Poker Night at the Inventory and the upcoming Back to the Future.

A February 25th release date for Gardens in Germany. This could very well be a placeholder date. I don’t think the rest of the world will be getting their hands on the 3DS until after Japan does.
