The new RRP for the Arcade model is R1999 (R700 off), The Pro is now sitting at R2999 (R700 as well) and the Elite at R3999 (R600 off)…. I said earlier that breaking the R2000 bracket is …

By doobiwan If it’s a movie game, chances are its going to suck. Movie tie-ins typically exist just to cash in on co-release marketing, taking tired formulas and reskinning them. But occasionally something amazing comes out of the blue. (Star Wars Pod Racer comes to mind). The thing with Beowulf is however that it’s neither of the above. Beowulf is …

Someone needs to tell Incredible Connection that the price cuts haven’t come into force yet. Well I am really hoping that these new prices are going to become the standard, Incredible Connection are currently selling a Xbox 360 Pro with a free game (Halo) for an unbelievable R2799. That’s R100 more than an Arcade with no free games…. If this …

Comments Off on Gametrailers.com – Army of Two – Review

We reviewed Army of Two last week already and generally loved it. Then IGN reviewed it and also were quite complimentary of the game. However now Gametrailers.com have crashed the party and have released a review that all the doomsayers have been expecting really. They don’t dislike the game entirely but they are also not happy about quite a few …

  My Dutch is non existent but I can read numbers in any language. Apparently on the 14th of March (Thursday) there is going to be a price cut across all the 360 ranges, dropping the Arcade version down from 278 Euros to 199… That’s quite a huge cut. If our price cut followed directly it would mean a price …

I see a lot of rubbish while I am trawling the web for gaming related stories. Normally I just ignore it and move on. However sometimes the crap is just so bad that I feel I have to subject you to it as well. Yes it’s mean but it’s Friday and you are all going to say horrible things about …
