These Microsoft people are very clever, hey. I had been booked for a round-table discussion at the J.W Marriott hotel during E3, but little did I know, that it was actually a secret unboxing session for the newer, smaller Xbox 360 that had not been announced up until that very day. The idea was that we were assigned to a …

The World has now been exposed to the power of the Vuvuzela thanks to the World Cup being hosted in South Africa. The whole thing has exploded as a new …
The fine folks at Ubisoft were kind enough to invite me to a private session with Driver: San Francisco as well as some of the team developing it. Driver has come along way, and the series itself has been incredibly quiet since Driver 3 (Driv3r) failed to impress critics. This time, the team is taking Driver in a very new …
Just after attending a special unboxing of the Xbox 360, I was given product sheets that give all of the details of the new Xbox 360. I have scanned the 3 pages in for those who want to check it out, and it also comes with a diagram of the layout, ports and so on. You will also notice that …
