Halo Effect failed?

By Gavin Mannion

2

Well some suprising news doing the rounds this morning, it seems like all those reports of the Xbox 360 beating the Wii in September were a little pre-mature. Now that most of the shops have handed in their exact figures we can actually see that the 360 just missed out on winning the month by 5000 units. This is a blow …

This game is just looking better and better. This is yet another teaser review of the game that many people are tipping to be the true game of the year. I think on the multi-player side it is easily going to be the most popular console game in South Africa since we don’t have that Halo heritage. Last Updated: October …

I was sent a tip this morning about how the Blu-Ray player manufacturers are cheating the system by getting their players certified before the stricter/better requirements come into effect on the 30th of October. We are currently in the Profile 1.0 generation but as of the 1st of November all Blu-Ray players certified will need to have a minimum of 256MB …

Comments Off on Forza 2 DLC price cut

As the title says, the latest DLC for Forza 2 which is the Twin Ring Motegi race track has had its price cut from 600 points to 400 points. There was quite a large internet outcry when the 600 point price tag was announced and it is refreshing to see a developer listening to their clients. Why they constantly try to …

Yet another gameplay video for Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune… The game looks and sounds great in this trailer and I am just really hoping the person playing the game is a complete idiot. As you will see it appears that aiming is impossible and controlling the vertical movement exceptionally difficult. I cannot imagine it is as bad as the trailer makes …

A while back I reported about the Polish Xbox Live petition that was a little to similar to our own to be a coincidence. Well Robert Szkop, the guy who put it up, actually responded to me very shortly after that to apologise for the plagiarism and offer assure us that there was no harm meant in it. Which I …

Well after reading the poor review last week about Haze I was starting to worry that this highly anticipated game was going to flop. However a new review has hit the internet with some more information and this time the game is sounding better. While previously we didn’t know the real point of Nectar it does seem to be very useful… It seems the rebels …
