On 3rd Day, Xbox Gave To Us...A Free Theme!

Sun, 20 Dec 2009 15:55:36 -0800

Today, Xbox Live is giving away a free New Years Day Premium Theme. It's available today only for free, regularly 240 points. Apparently, there have been reports that it isn't really a premium theme and according to Major Nelson, the Marketplace/Marketing team are checking into that issue.

Games For Windows Live and Tinker

Tue, 15 Dec 2009 21:20:11 -0800

I gave the new Games For Windows Live client a whirl earlier testing it out to see how it is. I can see the groundwork being placed for the service, and it looks pretty organized so far. You can buy games, have it installed via the client, try demos, see videos, and such. Microsoft released Tinker today, a free Game for Windows Live, game, :p It features achievements, and all the pluses that future games (might have). In other words it features a lot of stuff that xbox users have, like being able to get achieves, send messages, and being able to talk to your friends (basically, it is like xbox live for windows). It's neat how it is set up.

If you get a chance, try the client and free game out.

Tinker is a neat puzzle game that features a robot who loves to dance. It hooked me (all funnies aside, it is actually pretty nice).

I hope to see more games like Tinker hit the Games For Windows service...see I can't play the higher end games cause my computer isn't built for it, but games like Tinker interest me. They still look nice, play nice, but don't require a powerful PC. Besides, I do like games that have achievements and enable me to talk to people at the same time. The ability to basically inter-hook to my existing xbox live account is a big plus to me. Hopefully, we do see more of these type of games for the service.

Batman Arkham 2? Yes, Please!

Sun, 13 Dec 2009 20:32:32 -0800

While I did watch the VGAs for the Halo Reach video, it was nice to see two surprises: Batman Arkham Asylum 2, which looks like it'll take place in Gotham City itself (open world possibility?). The second being Green Day: Rock Band, which means we will finally get to play those classic Green Day songs in addition to the newer hits. Basketcase anyone?

Overall, the VGAs were pretty good this year.

It's over 9000!

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 19:52:34 -0800

I just started playing Dragonball Z Burst Limit again, and trying to go for some achievments that have eluded me.

Playing the demo for Raging blast made me realize how many urks I have with the tekinachi series. Sure it has a ton of charcters but man...the controls urk me.

Nothing can ever top Budokai 3.
