Major Nelson.com confirmed that Call of Duty 4 was the most played game on Xbox Live for the week ending January 28. Halo 3, unsurprisingly, came in at second place.

They can also sign into Xbox LIVE to chat and play “NFL Tour” cover athlete and NFL star Shawne Merriman of the San Diego Chargers. NFL players will participate in the Game with Fame from Arizona just hours before they go for the win in the Madden Bowl XIV and claim yearlong bragging rights. If you wold be interested in competing with Willis and Merriman you should send a friend request to the Xbox LIVE Gamertags WillisGwF and MerrimanGwF.

The Madden Bowl is an annual event in which eight current NFL players go head to head in a “Madden NFL 08” on Xbox 360 single-elimination tournament. This year, Madden Bowl XIV will be held at the Martini Ranch in Scottsdale, Ariz., and will feature eight NFL players who will compete for the chance to be deemed the league’s best “Madden NFL 08” player.

gamers who register as a Tournament Commissioner on http://www.xbox.com/maddenbowl for a four-day Play & Win Sweepstakes and then play in their tournament on Xbox LIVE will be randomly selected to receive special prize packages, such as an EA Sports 08 Game Pack or a trip for two to New York to be a part of EA Sports’ events during the draft in April. Existing Xbox LIVE Gold members may also register as a Tournament Commissioner online by downloading the exclusive gamerpic.

GameStop Opens “Tournament Store”
Published by: wes213 on Tuesday, December 11, 2007
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

Game retail giant GameStop announced on Tuesday the opening of a 4,000 sq. ft. facility that will serve as both a retail and videogame tournament center.

The San Jose, Calif. facility is the first of what GameStop said is a series of tournament-focused stores.

The new center will boast 24 networked gaming stations equipped with plasma monitors.

Tournament events will occur “most weekends” with “GameStop system-wide tournament finals occurring at least once a quarter.”

The first tournament is being held on December 15 from noon to 4 p.m., featuring Madden NFL 08. The winner will receive a $1,000 GameStop shopping spree.

It’s unclear how many of these stores GameStop intends to open. Reps for the company were unavailable as of press time.

GameStop currently has over 5,000 stores worldwide.
