Gaming superstar Lisa Foiles bravely stepped into the Xbox Live spotlight for “Game with Fame”. It’s a Microsoft ploy that lets the great unwashed masses game with someone famous. You can imagine just how popular the Lisa Foiles event was going to be. Needless to say; Lisa (aka @darthchix0r) quickly hit the friend invite limit […]
Tahiticora in a thong – is it an advert for Xbox?
The marketing gossip site AdRants claims the following video is an ad for Microsoft’s Xbox. The research I’ve had to put into this is terrible. Terrible. There is certainly a model called Tahiticora and she certainly seems to make an asset out of her ass. She’s also on Twitter. As well as publishing this video […]
Target charges $99 for console set up
The US retailer Target – which hasn’t made it to the UK or mainland Europe yet – has a service that sets up gaming consoles at people’s homes. Imagine you’ve just bought a shiny new PS 3 or Xbox 360 but, oh no, you can’t figure out how to plug it into the TV. Disaster! […]
Blood Bowl out in Europe
Blood Bowl is one of my favourite Games Workshop games of all time. My tem was a mix of humans and dwarves. I played Blood Bowl II and even painted the models. I hate model painting but painted cheerleaders got extra points. This trailer comes from SouthPeak. These guys are the people making the game. […]
Batman – Arkham Asylum 2 Announced
Batman: Arkham Asylum was without a doubt the finest Batman simulator ever released. It should come as no surprise then that a sequel was announced…
Halo: Reach trailer
Can you wait for Halo: Reach? I’m not sure I can. Halo is the only game that challenges Left 4 Dead for pure and simple, pick up and play, fun on Xbox Live. Halo: ODST was just a small fix to keep this Halo junkie alive while he waited for the real deal.
Laugh with Princess Robot Bubblegum
I’m clearly an anime fan and yet I found the Princess Robot Bubblegum spoof funny. It’s here to promote the must-be-a-hit-or-rockstar-dies game Grand Theft Auto but its heavily woven up with Microsoft – sorry everyone else. I’d also note that Princess Robot Bubblegum spoof the genre so well that it could only have been put […]
An introduction to Halo Waypoint
Halo Waypoint is designed to be a central hub for all your Halo activities on the Xbox and Xbox Live. This dashboard addition is there for Halo experts and fans. It’s a good way to make the expensive franchise and fantastic game even more sticky; it’ll be built in to your daily Xbox experience. We’ve […]
Bayonetta looks cool
We’re going to have to wait until 2010 until Bayonetta‘s out (unless you’re in Japan) but it looks cooler and cooler with each teaser. The cosplay wonders were good, the screenshots better and now we can sample the ad campaign in Japan. The mighty Kotaku are rumouring that Japanese fan mag Famitsu will award Bayonetta […]
Fighting the Metal Queen in Brutal Legend
Brutal Legend is going onto my Christmas wishlist. I’m just not sure whether I want the PS3 or the Xbox 360 version. I guess, if there is a tie, then the Xbox 360 wins due to Xbox Live and a better gamer point system. Do you agree? Anyway; here’s a great video tutorial from Geoff […]
