Level 9 loaded.... [digg=http://digg.com/xbox/Give_Criterion_their_props_damnit] This feature was started as an appease of sorts to the fine folks of Criterion Games. Therefore after the most recent announcement by the Burnout Team, it's ample time that they get the props they deserve from someone outside of their die hard fans who'll believe in them no matter what even if they are on a sinking ... more.

Well, let's be honest. GTA IV is good. Real good. Hence the lack of posts in this neck of the tubes. So, in a lame attempt to salvage some sort of blogging dignity I write this. When you see nearly your entire friends list playing the same game you can't ignore that. Can you? On another note, Xbox Live Arcade is taking a break this week with no new release. Surely, not all are interested in Gran... more.

It wouldn't be right if the following was not brought to light on the eve of the megaton launch of the greatest time sink in the history of, well, at least 2008. GTA IV is about to wage war with the lives of millions. Uninterested siblings and spouses everywhere are about to become second class citizens and what better time for that to happen for people who just don't understand the joy. Not apa... more.

* Due to technical issues, you'll have to hit up the via link below for the video. The MVP Summit that was hosted up at the Microsoft campus a few weeks back was held and all was good so we are told ( I want the dirt MVP's ;) ). As this was meant to be posted much earlier than this, it still goes to show that Chris Paladino is a man of many talents. Is it right that he's the best singer (as far a... more.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIkh2REEZkE] Sure, Lost Planet Colonies is trying to throw in everything, but the kitchen sink some would say but van you really fault Capcom for that. As gamers, we always say that we want more more more, but do we really want more more more when it comes to a game that we may have already played in it's first incarnation? Well, that's what Capcom faces wi... more.

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8dNn2UGgnPE] We thought trailer 4 was the last of the bunch, but eh eh ehhh that’s not all folks. Trailer 5 has slid under the radar, unlike the game itself. But enough about that, because if your like nearly everyone, this freight train can't get here quick enough (at least for those who will be picking it up at midnight this coming Monday night). [Vi... more.

For those of you who has created a Rockstar Social Club account, you should have received a " Rockstar Propaganda" email letting you know that GTA IV is out next week as if you don't already know (and if you don't, you do now). Accompanying this email is a link to a profile of sorts about the star of the show, Niko Bellic. Further more a reminder about the opening of the Social Club for 4-29-08 i... more.

If you thought Lost Odyssey still wasn't big enough, four disc and all, more content is on the way just for you. Releasing on April 25, the "bonus"pack will be available for 200 MS Points and include access to a new memory and the new items "The Shattered Bond"and "Killer Machine". The new memory will be accessible, When all of the playable characters have joined the player party, visit the dem... more.

Keeping to their word of more to come from Criterion Games, Burnout Paradise is in for some major updates that should have fans of the series very excited. If not for the customary crash carnage, the new adddictions up coming will be nothing less than exciting indeed. First up are 70 new Freeburn Challenges in the up coming "Cagney" update. Multi part challenges: Instead of just doing one challe... more.
