I recently made a detour to the magazine section of Barnes and Noble while waiting for a table at a restaurant. I picked up a magazine called “Play” that featured a Bioshock preview as its cover story which contained an interview with a Bioshock developer. The following is the information I gleaned. Bioshock is not…

Here’s a look at some really lame achievements from destructoid.com Whether you like to collect them (or buy them), Xbox 360 achievements have been the new e-peen for everyone to flash. It’s almost like you aren’t a real man unless you have an uber achievement score. Well, as most of you who own a 360…

Having missed out on the original GRAW and looking for some gaming excitement to hold me over until some of the new summer releases, I bought GRAW 2 from BestBuy last night. FYI, I had them pricematch Circuit City’s online price, so I got it for $49.99. Gamespot gave it 8.7. You can read the…

If you’re looking for info on Crackdown, the MS-Xbox World forums has it. You can view maps of every race location, stunt location, and hidden orb location.

If you plan to buy any of these at the sale price you should be there early or hope to be extremely lucky. Lastly, local BestBuys will not have all…

The following information was provided by one Gamestop manager in Oceanside, California. I have no evidence to suggest it applies to every game retailer in the US, but it is conceivable that it might. I’m one of the losers who had to purchase Crackdown to get in on the Halo 3 Beta. Not taking any…

This audio-less and anti-climatic video gives a brief glimpse of some of the weapons in Halo 3 (alpha build). The MA5C assault rifle is here, replacing the MA5B, and has a slower rate of fire, presumably at the benefit of more damage per round. The M6D pistol is also back (from Halo 1) with fewer…

I was discussing upcoming XBOX 360 games with FoulBreed and we had the revelation that this year is going to be expensive for those of us wanting to play all the new “revolutionary” games. Games I am sure I want: Halo 3 Crackdown Assassin’s Creed Bioshock Forza 2 Oblivion Shivering Isles Expansion Pack Games I…
