Finally. The old school arcade game that you’ve wasted so many quarters and time on i finally here! On August 5, go back in time virtually and literally with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But this time with HD graphics. Check the trailer above and try to tell me that you won’t buy this game.
Game will be available on Xbox Live Marketplace for $10.
If you’re a big fan of the Robot Chicken show on Cartoon Network’s Adult swim, then you’ll be happy to know that you can get a free episode download code from us. All you have to do is tell us why you deserve one of our free codes.
You’ve heard about the awesome music video made just for the fans of The Guild that was shown at Comic-Con. If you want to be one of the first people to download it, you need an Xbox and a download code for it. I have 15 codes left. If you want it, just e-mail us why you deserve a free code.
I stood in line for the first day of autographs from the cast members from The Guild for about a good 20 minutes during the San Diego Comic-Con preview night. I bought a Season 2 DVD (so should you) and got it signed by the cast members. While there, I asked them to tell you guys why you should watch this awesome web series, if you aren’t already watching it. Btw, sorry my wireless mic is kinda horrible. =(
In addition to buying a Season 2 DVD, I also got some free codes to download the complete first ever The Guild Music Video from the Xbox Live booth. I have some extras. If you want one, just send me an email. I promise, it’ll be one of the best videos you’ve ever seen. Probably second to A-HA’s Take On Me.
The much rumoured and often speculated portable Xbox might just be nearing reality. In a recent article Kikizo quoted Shane Kim, a Microsoft VP, as saying that an Xbox handheld is not just possible but highly likely:
“For us, it’s a matter of focusing on ‘when’, because if we chased after a mobile or handheld opportunity, we would not have the resources and ability to do things like… Project Natal. But we’re building a service in Live that… will extend to other platforms. No question about it. We understand that customers don’t want an island experience, they want to be connected to the rest of their lives.”
The gaming world can be a daunting one to jump into, especially when one considers just how long many gamers have been gaming. Speaking to a friend of mine, a geek in her own right and a major bibliophile, she expressed her interest in gaming in an odd way. While she is not a gamer herself, she would spend hours watching her brothers play games, interested in what was going on in the game itself and in the story. Immediately, I figured that if she was spending so much time watching people play, there was a major reason why she herself didn’t jump into gaming: she sucked at video games.
More gaming after the break.
We’re just gotten wind that Worms 2: Armageddon is readying release and to spice up your interest Team 17 have released a trailer for the vintage port. Worms is one of those games that is truly addictive, sucking you in and before you know it you’ve played 4 hours of blasting, shooting and wormicide. A release date and pricing are not yet known but are promised imminently, so if you’re fancying a bit of team based destruction then watch this space (and the trailer of course!).
The countdown is over! Here’s the trailer!
http://static.capcom.com/mvc2/flv/mvc2_teaser.flvI’m so glad this is being remixed into Xbox360 and PS3. Even though people wanted and expected Marvel VS Capcom 3, we can’t say that we aren’t happy with the nostalgic MvC2. The trailer says that the game will be online for download this Summer and an exact date is not announed yet. I’m guessing around E3 time since it’s a little over 1 month away. But for now, Capcom, I will now accept that ride you are offering.
We all heard of this song:
If this still plays in your head during dreams of Marvel VS Capcom 2 at the local arcade, then you’ll be happy about this countdown clock at http://www.tu4ar.com/ . What is that for you might ask? Maybe an announcement for a MvC2 remake? How would we know? Go past the break to find out more.
For those of you who follow online trends, maybe you’ve heard of Red vs. Blue? Yes? No?
Well for those of you that have, the folks from the Rooster Teeth Production staff that produces the Halo-inspired online series are hosting a Halo 3 community playdate, using the new Mythic Map Pack this coming Friday, April 10th. Yours truly, the big RvB nerd that I am, will be getting in on that action under the gamertag Fullmetal XZ. The details can be found on the Xbox website, here:

Note: The new map pack will be required for the event.
Currently, the Mythic Map Pack is only available to those who managed to snag a copy of the Halo Wars: Collectors Edition, but fear not. Bungie has stated the map pack’s release will be April 9th, just in time for the community playdate. More details about the Xbox Live Marketplace release of it can be found here:

And, for those of you wondering what Red vs. Blue is, here’s the first episode for your enjoyment.
