    • 360 gaming updates

      I just quickly scanned a official MS source for Xbox 360 updates, such as games, etc. and here is what will be happening so far this year.


      • The Halo Reach multiplayer beta will kick off on May 3. You will be able to access the beta via the Halo 3: ODST game disc.
      • Dead Rising 2 will release in North America on Aug. 31, Japan on Sept. 2 and Europe on Sept. 3.
      • Dead Rising: CASE ZERO an exclusive download only on Xbox LIVE, will launch prior to the full game and provide a playable prologue that bridges the story between the two titles.
      • Alan Wake will launch May 18 in North America and May 21 in Europe. Players can pre-order the title to receive the Bright Falls Bonus Pack, which includes exclusive content like Avatar gear, an Xbox LIVE theme, and a “making of” video.

      I don't understand why you're laughing at Ubisoft, I'm quiet thrilled for the next SC.


      cause conviction has been slated for release so long that they've given like 3 release dates and pushed it back each time. I love ubisoft, I was on the top scoring players for Ghost Recon 1 back during xbox original. They make solid titles but they really pulled a number on this cause when they released that gameplay footage ages ago claiming the game was almost done, it looked terrible. They scrapped it and started over.



      don't put out release dates if you can't make them. wait till you have a solid confirmation you can make it.

      Eh, It disappoints me when a game I'm waiting for is pushed back but I can deal with it, as a lot of popular game developers do it at some point.

      I think it's a rule in video games to never use the acronym SC unless it refers to Starcraft.

      I nearly killed myself. Be more careful, guys.
      Lol.

      1) I find it increasingly biased and greedy that Bungie is forcing people to buy ODST, despite it's worthlessness, to have any contact with their future product.

      2) Excited for FFXIII but not sure I would have enough time to play and enjoy it due to my upcoming purge of electronics to focus on my bulking.
