AH: Play ilomilo now + XBL Deals of the Week

If you haven’t heard of ilomilo before, let me open your eyes to this quirky little arcade title. Your characters ilo and milo begin at opposite sides of a 3D puzzle and must make their way towards each other by navigating a number of challenges, all while moving about the different sides of pieced together cubes. The game does include 2 player co-op, however it’s local players only.
Interested? Well, the game isn’t released for download by the conventional methods just now, but there’s still a way to get your grubby mits on it. Visit the secret code site and grab yourself a redeemable code to use on the XBox Live Marketplace. Once redeemed you’ll have a download of the demo inbound to your XBox 360 hard drive. Once finished, play the demo and decide whether you like it or not, and if you do you can buy the full version of the game from within the game’s menu system.

XBL Deals of the Week
After the bonanza of deals from the holiday weekend just gone, XBox Live is slashing prices on some arcade games guaranteed to bug you, but in the best possible way:
- Worms 2 Armageddon – Half price for twice the worms, only 400 MSP
- Band of Bugs – A creepy, crawly, irresistible 400 MSP
- Earthworm Jim HD – High Definition hilarity for just 400 MSP
- Centipede & Millipede – Double the trouble for just 200 MSP

A couple of days ago, Hedgemony posted the first several pages of his ‘Guard Duty’ comic on our forum (Pages 1-3 are here, 4-6 are here, and 7 is here) – hosting was a tad dicey, which is why Grim left these alone, but I’ve localized them now, so seeing them shouldn’t be a problem. Check it out – and keep your eye out for Week 2, coming soon!(Louis Wu 22:34:31 UTC)

For those of you living under a rock and completely out of the loop, Deathwing will be escaping from Deepholm and changing the entire face of Azeroth in the process. There will be earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and mass chaos everywhere. I’m surprised CNN hasn’t covered it.
