| Xbox 360 Slim by fall 2009 | | 2008-05-13 11:23:51 | | Microsoft can never stop coming up with something new. Gamers loved the Xbox when it rolled out of production lines. Soon after the Xbox, we go the Xbox 360. Now, according to news reports, 65 nm GPUs for Xbox 360 are leaving production lines and should hit the stands by the fall of 2009, and is expected to be called the Xbox 540.The 65nm technology doubles transistor density compared to the previous 90nm generation, and delivers powerful performance and performance efficiency, and will have the Valhalla chip, which is a "system-on-a-chip design", giving you a slim looking case.

| | GTA IV has 40% attach rate with new Xbox 360s | | 2008-05-13 07:14:20 | | The recently percentage-happy folks at Microsoft have unveiled a new statistic. According to a spokesperson on Major Nelson's podcast, trigger-happy carjacker Grand Theft Auto IV is having a 40% attach rate with new Xbox 360 consoles. "The game is attaching well to new consoles, roughly 40 percent of 360s going out the door had a copy of GTA IV going with them," he said.We wouldn't put it past Microsoft to track receipt details, but we wonder how the statistic was derived. Correlation from total hardware sales, total software sales and the increase in sales? A look at all receipts from all major retailers? They're not going to tell, but the best to take from this is what we already knew: Grand Theft Auto IV is selling like gangbusters and taking everyone with it.[Via GamesIndustry.Biz]

| | | Xbox 360 HD DVD drives going for €9.99 in Ireland | | 2008-05-06 05:04:00 | |
And you thought $49.99 was cheap. Word on the street has it that Microsoft's Xbox 360 HD DVD add-on, which has been seen as slightly less valuable since Toshiba pulled the plug on the once mighty red format, has stooped to €9.99 across the pond. For those not savvy on the absurd devaluation of the US dollar, we're talking $15.47 -- and that's with a Media Center remote bundled in, too. We're totally straight-faced when we say that's actually not a half bad deal if you're a fan of the media already out there, but the parsimonious among us are definitely waiting for these to come bundled with our favorite cereals before pulling the trigger.

| | GTA IV Xbox360 / PS3 Comparison | | 2008-05-01 16:38:00 | | Just yesterday, I had a friend over to bring his Xbox360 version of GTA IV, so I could compare both consoles and see who comes on top. After playing for about an hour on both systems, I...uhm, We came to the conclusion that, both consoles are equal. Basically, on my TV, there were no visible diffrences while playing both on 1080i resolutions, except of course some pop ins on xbox, but thats because ps3 version loads a 3gig file on hard drive to minimize both that and load times. Audio-wise both systems deliver stellar performances. On a visual note though, xbox seems to be little more cleaner overall, but ps3 version has better smoke effects during explosions.Overall, both parties have nothing to b!*c# about...this is GTA at its finest.

| | | X-Play: Xbox Live Orientation | | 2008-04-26 19:17:14 | | Xbox Live gets us mad. We don't mean because of the dips in service that happen from time to time, we don't mean some of the exorbitantly priced content; we mean the people. We love people, but on Xbox Live social normality is thrown out the window as some gamers just need to turn on that hate.We always thought it was because some people (not all, but you've met these people too) are just straight up jerkfaces (see also, Asshats) but apparently some gamers were just introduced to Live via this orientation video.X-Play created a (sometimes) funny video that's meant to shine light on the personalities of Xbox Live and how the hate came to be. Video's embedded after the jump due to some NSFW language and crude humor, but remember the whole thing is a gag and is meant to have you shake your head in both understanding and disgust because it's pretty accurate.

| | Operation Darkness demo hits Xbox Live | | 2008-04-25 13:01:21 | | Upon first glance (and your second through seventh glances, admittedly) Operation Darkness seems like a game created by insane people.It's a squad based tactical game where you're fighting the "hidden battles of WWII," but the reason they were hidden is apparently because they were waged against skeletons. And and some point, one of those skeletons gets punched by a wolf man in a trench coat. See? Crazy.We tell you all this, not as a lead-in to dispel your presumptions about the game's insanity, but to see if you'd play the new demo on Xbox Live for us and let us know how it is. Because frankly, we're a little freaked out.

| | GTAIV: PS3 vs. Xbox 360 In UK | | 2008-04-23 23:39:45 | | There are essentially two approaches to releasing video games: either you stick with a company and a console and hope people like your games enough that they’ll buy that console just to play your games, or you spread your seed far and wide, sowing in any field that seems fertile enough for a cash crop.Many successful franchises do this: Metal Gear Solid remains strongly in the Sony camp for the most part, Bungie despite regaining their freedom from Microsoft has still made no moves towards breaking their partnership with them. Nintendo sinks its claws deeper into the youth of the world every year with yet more Pokemon games.Some titles however are just too big to stick to one system. Since its inception the Grand Theft Auto games have garnered both acclaim and criticism, with most of the criticism coming from outside of the gaming community. There’s no doubt that the upcoming Grand Theft Auto IV will be a big seller all around, but if the UK is anything to judge by it seems that th | | By: Online Games | | |

Anyhow. Talk about personalizing your own unique system and experience.

| | Xbox 360 chopper + leather pants = gaming biker | | 2008-04-10 18:57:38 | | Australian GAME stores are running a scratch-off promotion (just like lottery tickets, but better!) where with every Xbox 360 that's purchased, customers get a chance to scratch and win all kinds of gaming prizes. Prizes including a custom crafted and super manly Xbox 360 chopper that's still being produced. You can hop on over to their "See the Bike!" page to watch the eventual evolution of the bike, because right now, it's looking kind of naked and non-360 themed. But we're sure it'll be 360'ized soon enough if the chopper's guages are any indication of things to come. Buy a 360 from GAME and (possibly) go vroom, vroom!

| | More light on the Xbox copying Wiimote | | 2008-04-09 22:00:00 | | According to 8BitJoystick.com, Microsoft definitely has a Wiimote-clone in development. The project has the internal Microsoft codename of "Newton" and could be a few months away from prototype.The interesting thing is that Nintendo does not own all of the patents for the Wiimote's technology. A few of them are owned by a company called Gyration and Microsoft could conceivably license the tech for their own use. Nintendo hired Gyration to help them develop the Wii remote and licenses the tech from them.We could definitely see Microsoft trying to do something like this as they continue to chase a broader market. This would also be something that current Xbox owners could buy without having to get a new console.Now, if only they would port Smash Bros. to the 360.Remember, this is all rumor at this time.[Via G4 TV.com]Copycats mofos!XHT With Love! | | By: X-Intelligence Krew | | |
| | Xbox 360-Mote? | | 2008-04-09 18:34:09 | | According to MTV News, the Xbox 360 has a new peripheral in development. Supposedly, this new controller will likely resemble Nintendo's Wiimote controller for the Wii console. The controller will apparently be centered around motion sensing, and have the oh so familiar shape of a remote, not unlike the Wiimote. The controller will be controlled via an LED sensor bar, as well as have all the familiar Xbox buttons set in an array on the remote a lot like the Wii's, and a microphone for voice chat as well. A mock-up (picture below) of the proposed remote over at Gizmodo caught my attention, because it looks exactly like the Wiimote. Of course, none of this information is for certain, and the controller project could easily be canceled, because you know Nintendo will have something to say about this. Personally, I think this is a pointless move by Microsoft. People that want to play games using a motion controlled remote already probably have a Wii, or plan to get one, which leaves them w | | By: Stuff Blog | | |

| | Grand Theft Auto IV on XBOX 360 | | 2008-04-05 12:23:00 | | Is there a doubt in anyone’s mind that 2007 will end up going down in the books as the greatest year in gaming history? The holiday lineup on the Xbox 360 alone is staggering, with games like Halo 3, BioShock, The Orange Box, and Call of Duty 4 competing for your gaming dollars. We had a chance to see each of those titles at E3 last week, but there was one sure-fire blockbuster that was noticeably absent from the festivities (aside from an all-too-brief showing at a press conference). Granted, it’s not like we were expecting to see Grand Theft Auto IV at the show, as developer Rockstars Games is notorious for their protection of their marquee titlesGTA IV tells the tale of Nikolai “Niko” Bellic, an Eastern European immigrant that comes to New Yor…er, Liberty City to chase the American Dream. Although his cousin Roman promised him a life full of champagne, women, and luxury cars, Niko instead finds that his deadbeat family member is deep in debt and working at a cab stand.

| | Awesome Xbox 360 Arcade Controller Mod | | 2008-03-22 10:29:31 | | I always like seeing modded products that look like they could be sold in retail stores. The dedication that modders have amazes me, and this new project I will show you is no exception. A guy that goes by the name of ShaolinDrunkard created an LED lit arcade-style joystick controller for the Xbox 360. It could easily be seen as a controller made specifically for the Xbox Live Arcade games, but it would work great in fighting games as well. He did a pretty good job, and when lit up it looks really awesome. If I had an XBox 360, and the desire to make something, this would be the thing I would make. Check out more pictures of this and a bunch of other awesome joystick mods at the guy's Flickr page.This will be my last post till I go on vacation. Hopefully I can find some free WiFi somewhere. So I'm off, bye :)Thank you for subscribing to my blog! Tell your friends!

Two of Capcom's upcoming digitally distributed titles will be larger than Xbox Live Arcade's current size limit of 150 megabytes, said Capcom senior director of communications Chris Kramer at the publisher's office this week. During a presentation at Capcom's recent "Digital Day" media event, Kramer told the crowd that the company's upcoming games Bionic Commando: Rearmed and Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix will be larger downloads, to accommodate the high-res textures of the former and the 1080p display option for the latter. Kramer characterized this as Microsoft making a "very special exception" for Capcom.Ben Judd, producer of Bionic Commando, told 1up.com in an interview at the Game Developers Conference that the Xbox 360 version of the game would not look as good as the PlayStation 3 version because of the siz | | By: Online Games | | |

| | | Blu-ray Xbox 360 add-on rumor resurfaces - SendMeRSS | | 2008-03-07 13:09:26 | | Blu-ray Xbox 360 add-on rumor resurfacesFiled under: RumorsYesterday our email exploded with news tips regarding the latest in the Blu-ray Saga. In an interview with the Financial Times, Sony Electronics US president Stan Glasgow proclaimed, "Sony is in talks with console rival Microsoft about offering a Blu-ray drive for the Xbox 360." While Microsoft has since denied any HD discussions are happening with Sony, we remember that a few MS execs let it slip that this could be an option if Blu-ray won the "war," which it did. One thing to keep in mind Xbox fanboys, this decision stems from wanting to offer multiple avenues to HD content to Xbox 360 users and doesn't mean we'll see that new SKU that slaps Master Chief's next outing on a BD disc. At least we think.[Thanks to everyone who sent this in] Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments Link - Comments - Xav de Matos - Fri, 07 Mar 2008 18:30:00 GMT - Feed (1 subs) blu-ray format-war hd-dvd Se | | By: Online Games | | |

Dr. Edgar Herbert was dropped in the Atlantic and left for dead, but after washing ashore near a nuclear test facility, the only thing on his mind is revenge. Now that he has the ability to transform himself into energy he can do just that. Wield the destructive power of nature as you unleash tornadoes, earthquakes and lightning storms in rural, suburban, and urban environments. If the game’s name sounds familiar, it’s because THQ released a 2D version of Elements of Destruction on DS back in January.

| | | Kid Thought He Got An Xbox 360... | | 2008-02-29 23:27:02 | | This is a video that brings mixed feelings. At first, you think "oh, the parents just gave the kid a couple T-Shirts boxed in Xbox 360 packaging, and are going to give him the console later." If that was the case, it would be more acceptable. But this poor kid was given what looked like an Xbox 360 for Christmas, but that was not the case. The worst part about it is the parents and family members in the background laughing insanely. If I was this kid, I would be filled with extreme anger. To fool a ~8 year old like that is pretty cruel. Though, the guys over at Engadget have decided to send an Xbox 360 his way, so that is pretty cool.Thank you for subscribing to my blog! Tell your friends!

| | Xbox 360 swings high over HD DVD business | | 2008-02-26 14:38:00 | | Why is that more and more is being focussed to the Xbox 360 business while the HD DVD segment is slowly losing its ground? That's more on the minds of the users and the retailers understand what's in the mood of this section of users and hence are shifting their gaming business accordingly. The trend is clearly visible with Microsoft announcing its plan to discontinue the development of HD DVD players for its Xbox 360 video game system. The company is rather considering Sony's Blu-ray format over the HD DVD. Earlier Warner Bros. Entertainment had announced of its plan to quit with their HD DVD business. Seems like the Xbox inferno has completely pulled over the whole of gaming gene. | | By: GENEXTPRODUCTS | | |
| | 5 Reason to Own an Xbox 360 | | 2008-02-24 16:31:56 | | To be honest there are plenty of reasons to buy an Xbox and there are plenty of Web sites telling you why you should by an Xbox. But here are my reasons as to why you should own an Xbox 360.Firstly, High Definition. Most people now own a Plasma or an LCD, with most people choosing these TV's as a fashion statement - They look better than old school CRT TV's. So if you have a nice HD ready TV, throwing an Xbox into the mix is a great way to start getting the most out of your TV. Not only are there hundreds of games to choose from, all made for HD TV's, but through the live marketplace you can purchase a great variety of HD films and TV shows.Secondly, probably the biggest use I get from my Xbox is not from playing games, but from streaming my divx files from my laptop to my Xbox so I can watch the latest Lost on the big screen. You can find a guide on how that is done herethirdly, Xbox Live! This great service allows you to go head to head against anyone in the world on your favourite g | | By: iSmooch | | |
| | Tversity and Xbox 360 | | 2008-02-24 16:29:46 | | Hi all, in this post I was going to tell you how you can watch your downloaded Divx Movies on your tv via your Xbox 360 by using a programme called Tversity. However since the winter update the Xbox now supports divx and Xvid vids.Therefore for the purpose of Streaming Videos to your Xbox, Tversity isn't now required, however im still going to post this because using Tveristy is still pretty cool for your Xbox (and ipod, PSP, PS3 etc).I've been using Tversity for a while now and my main use was for watching my Divx collection through my Xbox. I still use Tversity for this purpose as Tversity allows you to make several changes to its settings to get the best out of your digital collection and allows smoother streaming.Also, Tveristy allows you to watch URL videos on your Xbox, thus you can watch your favourite youtube clips and other videos that streamed across the Web on your tv.Another awesome thing you can do with Tversity is link it up with sopcast and watch all your free online spo | | By: iSmooch | | |

| | Xbox 360 HD DVD Add-On Discontinued | | 2008-02-23 23:57:28 | | Just days after the official announcement of the fall of HD DVD, more and more players are being taken off shelves. Microsoft's Xbox 360 HD DVD Add-on is one of those players, and has officially been discontinued. I believe it was yesterday I saw something about a price drop in the Add-on to $50. I guess if you happen to want a cheap player to play obsolete HD DVDs, then I suppose it's worth the money. As I have said before, I'm just glad the whole "war" is over. And I'm glad Blu-Ray won. But for you Xbox 360 owners, you will either be screwed and never get a Blu-Ray player, or you will get it. Depends on what Microsoft chooses to do. Though, a rumor has been going around that Microsoft is indeed in the process of making a Blu-Ray add-on for the 360, but there has been no confirmation as of now.Thank you for subscribing to my blog!

| | Indie Games Hot Topic At Xbox 'Bloggers' Breakfast' - SendMeRSS | | 2008-02-22 02:20:19 | | Indie Games Hot Topic At Xbox 'Bloggers' Breakfast' From left: Xbox Live chief Aaron Greenberg, Microsoft corporate vice president John Schappert, and Wired's Chris Kohler at the Xbox bloggers' breakfast at GDC. Microsoft brought members of the blogging community, from larger outlets like Wired.com and Kotaku to indie sites like RPGamer, together on Thursday morning to talk Game Developers Conference announcements over bacon and eggs. Microsoft execs John Schappert, Aaron Greenberg, and Chris Satchell were on hand to discuss the week's Xbox 360 news covered at yesterday's keynote. The conversation, as you might imagine, was dominated by discussion of the new indie games initiative on Xbox Live Arcade, which will let independent developers upload their creations to the service, creating what many are calling a 'YouTube of games' on Microsoft's box.But really, the most important takeaway for me from the meeting was when I asked (more of a demand, actually) John Schapper | | By: Online Games | | |
| | User-Created Zune and Xbox Live Arcade Games | | 2008-02-22 00:28:52 | | Earlier this week during their keynote at GDC, Microsoft announced many things. One of which has caught my attention. Microsoft announced that you will soon be able to create, and play games made by users like you and me (though, most likely from third-party companies) through Xbox Live and your 2nd generation Zune. To create the games, you simple pay for Microsoft's XNA game developing software, which is open for anyone to use. I believe this is a good step forward for Microsoft, having user-created content being dispersed really adds more to the functionality of Xbox Live. The XNA software will be able to create games for PC, Xbox 360 and Zune, and the games will be playable on all three. Meaning you won't have to make a different version of the same game for the Zune and PC, or Xbox Arcade; they will be interchangeable. One cool feature is the ability to play the games with other players online, on all three platforms as well. Suddenly a Zune with online games doesn't sound so bad.. | | By: Stuff Blog | | |

Fifth and sixth generation Xbox 360's are being developed in Redmond codenamed Opus and Valhalla, respectively.In October 2007, Joystiq reported that the third generation Xbox 360, codename Jasper, was being developed for an August 2008 launch to replace the current Falcon models. The Opus is described as the "zombie Xbox 360 killer," a mishmash of working parts from current red-ringed first generation Xbox 360's (codenamed Xenon) that includes a 90nm GPU and a 65nm CPU fitted onto a Falcon motherboard squeezed into the original Xenon case, which means this console would lack the new HDMI port.

| | 16% Xbox 360 failure rate | | 2008-02-14 11:07:00 | | Working with a sufficient sample size of over 1,000 claims, SquareTrade, a warranty seller, has projected the Xbox 360 failure rate at 16.4% -- and likely climbing. Comparatively, the company reports failure rates hovering around 3% for PlayStation 3 and Wii, based on less accurate sample sizes numbering in the hundreds. SquareTrade found that the ghoulish "Red Ring of Death" accounted for 60% of hardware failures it's documented and supposes that figure could keep growing. "It is reasonable to believe these failure rates will increase over time, since the Xbox 360 failure issues tend to increase with prolonged use where overheating appears the main culprit," SquareTrade CEO Steve Abernethy told 1UP.Admittedly, SquareTrade does not track specific versions of the console, but it's fair to assume, as Abernethy does, that "most, if not all" recorded hardware failures have occurred with the original Xbox 360 motherboard.
