    Who would have seen it coming. Halo 3 is the most played game on XBL for the week of November 24th.



    This could be due to a number of reasons. Broken Matchmaking for Gears 2, COD players are now split between two games or the drop in price of the Legendary Map pack for Halo 3.
    Whatever the reason Master Chief has taken back the top spot.

    Xbox 360 Top Live Titles
    1 Halo 3
    2 Gears of War 2
    3 Call of Duty 5: World at War
    4 Call of Duty 4

    7 Left 4 Dead
    8 Madden NFL 09

    Assault heros 2 is coming to XBL arcade

    Assault heros 2 is coming to XBL arcade
    Published by: dartht33bagger on Sunday, March 16, 2008
    Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,

    Lock and load! Sierra Online will soon unleash Assault Heroes 2 for Xbox Live Arcade on the Xbox 360. Re-imagined for an even more intense arcade shooter experience, the Assault Heroes 2 game expands its horizons into outer space. New features include hi-jackable enemy vehicles, many more levels and an enhanced co-operative gameplay mode.

    "Assault Heroes was a resounding success so making the sequel even more phenomenal was a tall order," said Nicole Perez, vice president of marketing, Sierra Online. "The developer, Wanako, took on that challenge and has crafted the ultimate arcade shooter experience."

    Just when mankind thought the world was safe, the Assault Heroes are called back into action to once again save the planet from a sinister alien race in Assault Heroes 2. With a bigger and more powerful arsenal of weapons, players will be fully equipped to take out waves of fierce enemy foes and unbelievable bosses for many hours of destruction. Battles will also get up close and personal with more on-foot action in intense close-quarters firefights. Whether attacking on foot or piloting all-new spacecraft, players will enjoy optimum mobility in the most dangerous situations.

    Developed by Wanako Studios, the Assault Heroes 2 game will be available on the Xbox 360 this spring.

    MS Fires Casual Assault with Free XBLA Games

    MS Fires Casual Assault with Free XBLA Games
    Published by: wes213 on Tuesday, November 20, 2007
    Tagged: Gaming, Live Arcade, Live Marketplace, Xbox 360,

    Microsoft is upping its assault on the casual market by offering free Xbox Live Arcade games to prospective 360 owners and the friends that persuade them to buy a console.

    Microsoft is hoping to take advantage of Wii shortages this holiday by reaching out to those looking for a casual gaming fix. European gamers who persuade a friend to purchase an Xbox 360, and the person who actually parts with the cash, will each receive ten free XBLA games for their troubles, assuming they don’t forget to fill out and send off a form.

    The ten titles in question are Every Extend Extra Extreme, Sonic The Hedgehog, Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting, Bomberman Live, Marble Blast Ultra (pictured), Spyglass Boardgames, 3D Mini Golf Adventures, Small Arms, Assault Heroes and Zuma Deluxe.

    According to Stephen McGill, head of Gaming and Entertainment, Microsoft UK, the offer “…enforces the fact we’ve got an exceptional online service in Xbox Live, which truly does bring everyone together.”

    Last month Microsoft launched the Xbox 360 Arcade pack in place of the prior entry-level unit, the Xbox 360 Core system, in a bid to target the family-friendly market being bossed by Nintendo. The Arcade pack comes with a wireless controller, five full pick-up-and-play arcade titles, high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) support and a 256MB memory card.
