Enslaved's Pigsy DLC Will Have You Creating The Perfect Woman

And you'll be able to do it in eye-popping 3D if you have the equipment.

Prior to the release of Ninja Theory's Enslaved, Namco Bandai said that the game's colorful and appropriately disgusting side character, the porcine Pigsy, would be given a starring role in a chunk of post-release downoadable content. Release details are still being carefully guarded, but the publisher has finally lifted the veil on what you'll be doing as the character in the optional $10 fling. 

And a fling it is. In Pigsy's Perfect 10, as its called, you'll be tasked with assembling the perfect female companion from scraps of metal and debris found within the dreaded Titan Graveyard, an area that played a big role in the back half of Enslaved itself.    
    
The word from Namco is that you won't be scurrying around this area like you did with Monkey. No, Pigsy's skill set is supposed to differ wildly from the game's main and rather fit protagonist. Instead of your arms, you'll be using Pigsy's hookshot, bombs, and other "various devices," such as the Trouble Vision eyepiece, to traverse stealthily through the graveyard. There will also be sharpshooting sections.
 

No Caption Provided
 
If you have a 3D-enabled HDTV (and who doesn't at this point, am I right?), you'll be able to "experience" this content in 3D courtesy of TriOviz technology. The three remaining standard HDTV owners on the planet will also be able to enjoy the DLC in all of its 3D glory later this fall when TriOviz's 3D eyeglasses hits stores. No word on price on these, if you were wondering. 
 
Pigsy's Perfect 10 is still slated to be released at some point this year on the Xbox 360 and PS3

So glad it's story related DLC and not some terrible combat focused thing.

I'm tired of this 3D talk. Is it even a big deal in movies now? Seems like a lot of new theater releases are skipping 3D.

It is nice when yet another take on the Journey to the West occurs and they actually try to put in the right character types. :)

Ahhhh crap, just reading the title alone kinda spoiled the game for me in a way.
I just started playing last night, now I know that the characters I'll meet are exactly based on "Journey to the West" 
 
and I'm Chinese so I pretty much see a movie base on it on a yearly bases

Sounds good, I'm up for more Enslaved. I actually found Pigsy to be a surprisingly charming character, and the story of this DLC totally sounds like some creepy business he would be up to. It'll be interesting to see how his new skill set plays out.

I'm still on the fence about Enslaved. I am not a character-action fan but it just looks really interesting.

So I guess this is set before the main game then (anyone who finished it knows why). 
Cant wait, Enslaved was awesome and Pigsy was hilarious.

I'm tired of all the 3D bashing. I understand you people love to hate on things, but isn't it time to move on to something else? Like, I dunno, Surround/Stereo sound?  
"It makes my ears hurt! it adds nothing to the game to hear different things with both ears! I'm deaf on one ear so I can only hear mono anyway so stereo must die! It's just a gimmick to make people buy more speakers! You have to sit right in the middle of the room for it to work!"

Calling it now.  The DLC will end with Pigsy finding the perfect woman, casting a spell on himself that makes him look hot, and then give it all away when he gets drunk and the spell undoes itself.

TriOviz is the same 3D tech used in the Batman GOTY edition. 
 
I still have to find time to rent Enslaved and play it but glad they're supporting the game post-release.

Nice.  I really want to get this game and having a 3DTV I have even more incentive.  3D movies aren't all that great, but 3D gaming is fun.

Dude, calm down. I'm not "3D bashing." I'm saying that *I* am tired of 3D. If you like it then please feel free to post about how much you love it. Also, comparing 3D to surround or stereo is silly. (In Summary: MY OPINION.)

I don't see how it is. The concept is exactly the same. Stereo hearing and stereo vision.
Also I'm not blaming you specifically. I just said I'm tired of people complaining about it in general.

I don't like wearing glasses and I don't have to wear special glasses to listen to surround. I know it takes more speakers, but I don't have to strap them to my head. I also don't get a headache from prolonged exposure to my stereo. If the tech were better I would probably be more interested in it, but it isn't there for me to get invested in it yet. 
 
You might not be blaming me for your comment, but you did quote my post and singled me out in the process. I didn't take it personal though, so don't sweat it.

Well, wearing glasses is no different from wearing headphones. And if you don't you have to be seated in the perfect center to hear the sound properly, not to mention good speakers are really expensive. Also, what's wrong with glasses? Millions of people wear glasses every day.
Not everyone gets headaches from watching 3d stuff (I don't), but many people get headaches from loud noises too. Especially when they come from different places. (different phases) But I wouldn't suggest games and movies should stop supporting surround because of that.
 
I didn't intend to single you out. It was just a good post to comment. Very quotable ;)

Does anyone but me think the Pigsy model looks amazing? For some reason, to me, he looks way better than Trip or Monkey. Something about the detail and texture work look really good. Just an odd thing I noticed, that a side character looked better than the 2 main ones.
