Legendary Map: Avalanche For Halo3

Legendary Map: Avalanche For Halo3
Published by: wes213 on Wednesday, March 19, 2008
Tagged: Gaming, Live Marketplace, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,

Team BUNGiE Has droped the screen shots and info about the second map from next month’s Halo 3 Legendary Map pack and it's kind of sorta a remake.


When the team was asked why this map they responded with:
JS: Honestly there are so many maps I would personally love to see placed within Halo 3’s DLC. And for me and others Sidewinder was one of them. I think it’s just one of many we really wanted to do. Not to mention I believe there were allot of folks banging on the door requesting it.

LB: Since the Halo: CE days, Sidewinder has been a fan favorite. Sure it might not be on EVERYONE’S list, but it seemed to be on the short list for a lot of incredibly vocal fans. And hell, it’s HUGE! And we needed more BTB maps.

MB: It just made sense. Looking back at the release maps and DLC1 maps, everyone could see that we needed another Big Team Battle map along the lines of Sandtrap, and with the Community's love of Sidewinder, it was a great fit.

NS: Two reasons: Sidewinder is one the most requested remakes and we also needed another big vehicle map. And maybe this isn’t the only classic we’re remaking. There’s always hope for said Internet Halo fan.


The map pack is due April 15th for 800 marketplace points and team bungie has said: "It wouldn’t be wholly accurate to call it a “remake,” but elements of Avalanche are certainly culled from Sidewinder – it has the same familiar U-shape, multiple ways from base-to-base, and a whole sandbox full o’ vehicles to play with. But there are many, many changes too."

What Bionic Commando: Rearmed Worth To You?

What Bionic Commando: Rearmed Worth To You?
Published by: wes213 on Tuesday, March 18, 2008
Tagged: Gaming, Live Arcade, Live Marketplace, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,

The official Bionic Commando: Rearmed web site has announced that Bionic Commando: Rearmed will be going for 10 bucks in the US and that they came up with this price after taking a poll on it.


They have made no comment on pricing for the European version so far but since this game is on my got to have it list i will let you know as soon as the information is available.

Here is what producer Ben Judd had to say about the poll and its results: “While the results may suggest that $10 is the sweet spot for most people (in the US the final tally was 83% in favor of the $10 price point and 17% in favor of the $15 price point), there is another side of the story which wasn't represented by the poll results – and that is the huge number of user comments that we received, where a majority were suggesting they would pay $15 or even $20 for the game.”

Bionic Commando: Rearmed releases in May and i for one cant wait.

What Ninja Gaiden II Will Offer

What Ninja Gaiden II Will Offer
Published by: wes213 on Tuesday, March 18, 2008
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

Ninja Gaiden has always been a fan favorite and one of the hardest games to master for a long time now which makes it a grate buy any time.

With that said lets get down to the new info we have for Ninja Gaiden II due out in June 2008 and what all they have done to make this game better then all Ninja Gaidens before it.


Key Features:
• Exhilarating ninja action. Assuming the role of a ninja warrior, players will experience an all-new combat system that requires skill and mastery of their full arsenal of weapons, including Obliteration Techniques that allow players to quickly and stylishly finish off an opponent. In addition to the variety of brutal new primary weapons and enhanced versions of previous favorites, Ninja Gaiden II will feature unique acrobatic combat and attacks used not only by Ryu Hayabusa but also by his formidable enemies.
• Easy to play but hard to master. The new auto-healing system in Ninja Gaiden II featuring semi-permanent damage restored at save points, is the natural evolution of the franchise’s distinctive gameplay and introduces a new twist to managing health. With a newly implemented auto-healing functionality and save-point system, as well as an extensive story mode and multiple levels of difficulty available from the start of the game, the gameplay of Ninja Gaiden II will be accessible to more casual players and challenging to even the most demanding gamers.
• Massive content and engrossing story. The themes of revenge and friendship in Ninja Gaiden II give rise to a series of dramatic events to create a truly compelling story. From Tokyo to New York and to the netherworld, the story will lead players through a lengthy, action-packed story mode as they skillfully maneuver Ryu Hayabusa through a demonized world fraught with danger.
• Shared adventures over Xbox LIVE. The Ninja Cinema feature will allow gamers to record Ryu’s combat exploits as movie clips on their Xbox 360. Players’ favorite clips can be viewed at any time, and by coupling them with the black-and-white Akira Kurosawa-style video filter, they will be able to relive their adventures as though they were part of the traditional Japanese art form of the samurai film. The best Ninja Gaiden II players in the world will be able to upload their clips to Xbox LIVE for everyone to download and view, making this new Ninja Cinema feature a great way to accelerate the growth of the Ninja Gaiden II player community around the globe.
• Realistic graphics in next-generation gaming. Built from the ground up from Team NINJA’s in-house gaming engine for the next-generation Xbox 360 platform, Ninja Gaiden II represents the best in amazing visuals, responsive control and thrilling combat with an extensive assortment of ninja weaponry.

If you ask me whats the best thing in the features list i wold need to say its by far the Ninja Cinema and the the fact that now i can show my friends what i did and not just tell them some unbelievable story since i wold now be able to offer them undeniable proof.
This will undoubtedly remove the fib factor from gaming story's.

Kane & Lynch To Get Achievements By DLC?

Kane & Lynch To Get Achievements By DLC?
Published by: wes213 on Monday, March 17, 2008
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

Reports are surfacing that Kane & Lynch: Dead Men just might be getting DLC that may have 5 new achievements embedded in it.

Discovered by Xbox.com The five new achievements are being hidden under the "Secret" achievements status and will contain one 100GS, two 50GS and two 25GS achievements.


Since Kane & Lynch: Dead Men was not a huge hit and was not received well by the public I'm not sure how many out there wold even care about this news at all.

I'm sure some of you may have this game and as always every games has a fan or two out there so should they make the DLC cheap or even free those that have the game will surly want to get the content when and if it hits for the achievements points alone.
