In Australia who seem to get screwed all the time with Video Games are currently having to pay [...]

Could you imagine that when the Xbox 360 launched it would end up with Netflix, Twitter, Facebook and Last FM? The service was such a closed and monetised operation until late when Microsoft have seemingly thrown caution to the wind. It’s actually great to see and while the appeal of Twiiter and Facebook might wear [...]

This year Microsoft are taking a serious gamble with their Games on Demand service that will be hitting with the upcoming dashboard update.

The spotlight lists the 1 Vs 100 Beta coming this Friday along [...]

It might be another World War 2 First Person Shooter but Battlefield 1943 definitely has it’s appeal. Not only is it a dirt cheap multiplayer Battlefield affair but it’s also only available through downloadable platforms only. No retail versions at all for this Xbox Live Marketplace or Playstation Network only title.
I have to admit this [...]
