One of my favourite games of all time, the original N64 hit Banjo-Kazooie will make its furry and feathered way onto the Xbox Live Arcade on November 26, reports EvilAvatar. The release is set to compliment the announced November 14 release of Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. Last Updated: September 25, 2008

  With Megaman out on PSN and Wii this week, and XBLA next week, here’s a little Developer interview to wet your gaming taste buds. Probably the most eye catching feature about this game is the developers decision to go back to NES styled 8 bit graphics. For those of you not familiar with the Megaman series, don’t be fooled, …

I have said before that I was more of a Quake boy than a Duker and that this game really didn’t interest me that much. But I have now changed my mind, this trailer brings back some great memories and I am just going to have to download this. The co-op part itself will make this game worth it as …

"It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum... and I'm all out of gum" Ah the good old days. Duke Nukem 3D was actually one of my first online experiences, playing with a friend using my 56k modem. Now the Duke is coming to XBLA and the date has been set for September 24 and will have new features not seen in the original. 4 player co-op, deathmatch and some sort of innovative replay and clip sharing feature make up some of the features that Duke Nukem fans can look forward to. The game will also include achievements as is the norm with arcade titles but will also have concept art that can be unlocked. "Shake it baby!".

Great news for Castle Crashers fans. Behemoth have posted an update on their sites blog saying the following: "We just got off the phone with Microsoft and we had a great talk about updating Castle Crashers, YES!! Looks like we’re on our way to getting this title update out and the bigger issues like saving and online connectivity resolved, in addition to other bugs that have been reported." They suggest that anyone currently experiencing issues should try and host games instead of join them, although that didn't work for me when I tried it out. So when can we expect the update? "We just got off the phone with Microsoft and we had a great talk about updating Castle Crashers, YES!! Looks like we’re on our way to getting this title update out and the bigger issues like saving and online connectivity resolved, in addition to other bugs that have been reported." Well even though we don't know when it will be available it looks like it will be ready fairly soon and then we call all finally enjoy a 4 player online experience.

Brett posted yesterday about the upcoming Death Tank, or scorched Earth to us older folk. Well it got me intrigued so I went on a mission to find out more about it and stumbled across this video. I can’t decide if I am excited about this game or worried that it’s going to be a complete failure. I devoted many …

As reported yesterday, the long awaited beat-em-up, Castle Crashers, was finally released for Xbox Live Arcade. While the games is enjoying a very positive reception it seems that there are issues with online play being experienced worldwide. We managed to get our hands on the game yesterday to give it a bash and it is proving to be a heck of a lot of fun. The only issue comes in when trying to play online. The game seems to be suffering from issues that cause the game to begin lagging and then ultimately drop completely. At first we thought it was down to an issue on our side (more specifically my side) but we eventually went onto the internet to see if the rest of the world was having issues as well. On the TeamXbox forums, I managed to find an official Castle Crashers thread that had many a member complaining about issues with games dropping and freezing. In other local tests some of the SA guys managed to play with 2 - 3 people for long periods of time but none have yet been successful when a 4th was added. Other games just died out after mere minutes. I have checked the official Castle Crashers website but at the moment they are experiencing issues with their server being flooded so I can't check to see if they have officially recognised the issue. With complaints arising worldwide I am sure that it is only a matter of time until the problem is sorted out with a patch but till then, be warned. If you are specifically downloading the game for online play then you might be disappointed when the games keep dropping so I suggest that you hang back and wait for a patch. Either that or you could go buy some beers and extra controllers and invite some friends over for an evening of mayhem. That's the way that we did it back in the olden days, remember?

This week Yahtzee reviews Braid, that game that everyone loves but I wasn’t over enamoured with. Yes it’s clever and fun but I just don’t think it’s as great as certain people make it out to be and you know what… Yahtzee agrees with me. Which obviously means I am right and can now go home and delete it off …
