Rock Band Instrument Edition gets price cut EA have officially announced that the Instrument Edition of Rock Band (the box that has all the instruments but no game) will recieve a price cut on XBox 360, it will now retail for the price of £109.99 rather than the previous RRP of £129.99. As far as I am aware though, most online retailers seems to be selling the equipment for roughly £100 already. 0 comments Duane 2008-09-08 07:38:30permalink And we're back! The site's working again!After much coding and database wrangling Have a nosey around our shiny new layout, and post crap in our new and improved forum. Your old account should work fine. Anyway, while the dust settles, enjoy! 2 comments Mark 2008-09-07 15:12:22permalink ![]() Command & Conquer: Red Alert And I did this last week Duane, what's your point? ;P Anyway, this week's Wednesday Game is a bit special- it's the full version of the 13-year-old Command And Conquer: Red Alert. EA are giving it away to celebrate the release of the third game in the series, and both Soviet and Allied discs are available. 0 comments Mark 2008-09-07 15:05:04permalink More nursey footage from Silent Hill: Homecoming Some new footage from Konami's Silent Hill: Homecoming featuring everyones favourite "not sure why I find that sexy" game villain, the Nurse. Seems in this one the creepy town now has its very own Ann Summers, judging by the so-called "uniform". My fiance assures me that she doesn't suddenly change into something similar when she arrives at work...Show/hide video 0 comments Duane 2008-09-07 15:23:15permalink What We're Playing: Who's line is it anyway? I did last week's guys ;-) Anyway, my games playing as been all over the place the past week, I finished off [b]Gears of War[/b] on Casual because I'm really no good at these games (or most games for that matter...), returned to [b]Bioshock[/b] but have come across the same frustrations that I previously had, gave [b]Oblivion[/b] a try but felt it was just a postcard generator, before finally settling on a tri of golf games, [b]Hot Shots Golf 2[/b] on PSP, [b]Super Swing Golf[/b] on Wii and [b]Tiger Woods 09[/b] on 360. I'm not even a fan of the sport, but I do enjoy relaxing in front of a console game of it... I've also spent a bit of time with [b]Castle Crashers[/b] on 360, which is great fun both in single player and on local multiplayer (with the missus, have wanted to play on Live but lost my voice for a few days...) 0 comments Duane 2008-09-07 13:39:12permalink Castle Crashers Castle Crashers, from The Behemoth makers of Alien Hominid, hit XBox Live Arcade yesterday for the price of 1200 Microsoft Points. This past few weeks on Microsofts downloadable service have certainly been more expensive than normal, but Castle Crashers is most certainly worth its price.
Enjoy, I know I am, and if I play online with you at any point, baggsy Orange ;-)0 comments Duane 2008-09-07 13:39:12permalink ![]() GoldenEye 2D This week's Wednesday Game is the opposite of a remake- a 'demake', if you will- porting the Nintendo 64 classic GoldenEye into a GameBoy era 2D side-scroller. The game only goes as far as the end of Dam, the first level from the original, but remains relatively faithful- right down to a fantastic 8-bit rendition of the music. Download it here. 0 comments Mark 2008-09-07 13:39:12permalink What We're Playing: Nuts and Bolts I've started to dig into the [b]Ratchet and Clank[/b] series, starting with [b]Size Matters[/b] on the PSP, its probably not the finest example of the series, being by High Impact Games rather than Insomniac, but its enjoyable, I also have Secret Agent Clank and Going Commando waiting for me to play. Aside from that I'm still playing the [b]American McGee's Grimm[/b] games whenever they're released, [b] Persona 3[/b], [b]Burnout Paradise[/b] and [b]Psychonauts[/b] I've been unable to play [b]Football Manager Live[/b] for the majority of the week due to having some sort of problem running it that wasn't there before. 0 comments Duane 2008-09-07 13:39:12permalink Machinima Monday: You're too slow This weeks Machinima Monday was a bit of a rushed search if I'm being honest, still its a entertaining enough, and its only about a minute and a half long. In this short, Solid Snake decides to teach Sonic the Hedgehog a lesson. This piece was made using Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. Brawl, hit the jump to watch it.
