Resurrection, the new Battlestar Galactica Deadlock DLC, will be released on August 29th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. The Colonials strike back with Battlestar Galactica Deadlock Season 2!
So say we all! After the dramatic ending of Sin and Sacrifice, the Colonies are in total shambles and with no clear leadership. But humans will never give up, as the Gods have a plan for everyone. Resurrection marks the start of a new Season of battles, stories, challenges in the Battlestar Galactica universe. Having lost their mother base, the Colonies will need to forge a new headquarter: what better than the Battlestar Galactica battleship to launch a counterattack on the Toasters?
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Deadlock takes you into the heart of the First Cylon War, to fight epic 3D battles that will test your tactical prowess.
Take control of the Colonial Fleet from the bridge of the mobile shipyard, Daidalos, and free the Twelve Colonies from the Cylon threat. Build your fleets, protect the Quorum alliance and prepare to dig deeper into the conspiracies of this heroic conflict.
Developed by Black Lab Games and published by Slitherine Software, Battlestar Galactica Deadlock releases on December 8, 2017.

Star of “Spartacus: Gods of the Arena” and “Xena: Warrior Princess” to Voice Character in Upcoming Fantasy Action Game.
(Rockville, MD) – Bethesda Softworks®, a ZeniMax® Media company, today announced that Lucy Lawless will lend her voice to the fantasy action game, Hunted: The Demon’s Forge™. Hunted is a fresh take on the classic dungeon crawl experience that delivers the intensity and action of a modern-day shooter. It will be available in North America on June 1st and throughout Europe June 3rd on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and Games for Windows.
Lawless, who rose to fame through her groundbreaking performance as “Xena: Warrior Princess”, currently stars in the television series, “Spartacus: Gods of the Arena” and recurs on the ABC series “No Ordinary Family”. In addition to these two high-profile roles, she also starred as D’Anna/Number Three in the critically-acclaimed Syfy Channel series “Battlestar Galactica.”
“Hunted is an incredibly dark, intense game and I’m delighted to have the opportunity to work on such a thrilling project,” said Lucy Lawless. “After playing the heroine for so long it’s refreshing to portray such a villainous, seductive temptress!”
In Hunted, Lawless voices the character of Seraphine, an adventurer-turned-temptress. Under the influence of the Demon Forge’s ancient and powerful evil, she appears as a spirit guide that lures Caddoc and E’lara, the game’s protagonists, into a dark and twisted adventure with promises of great wealth and power.
Under development at inXile Entertainment, Hunted has been called “A Dungeon Crawl for the Gears Age” by Kotaku.com and has been described by Eurogamer as “violent, deceptively thoughtful and witty.”
Hunted has not yet been rated by the ESRB. For more information about Hunted visit www.HuntedTheGame.com or browse the 360-HQ.COM games database for our own selection of screenshots, trailers, news and info.
The Xbox 360 supports DivX and XviD as of today, which may make some of you with big file collections (like us) as giddy as a kid in store with puppies made of candy. We threw our entire collection of movies, TV shows and random clips at it and found that the 360 can play back pretty much anything. Here are some notes.
You can play files off of a CD/DVD. This feature wasn't listed on the Xbox Team's website as one of the supported locations for playing back content, but this is fantastic for homes that have wireless networks (or no network at all). In fact, reading off a disc is probably the best way to ensure your movie won't cut out in the middle due to network congestion (unlikely) or someone turning off the computer accidentally (fairly likely).
It supports almost all files. It played back all TV shows we threw at it, including My Name is Earl, 30 Rock, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Battlestar Galactica, and The Venture Bros.. Most of these, and most TV downloaded TV shows, are encoded in XviD format. As for DivX, that's supported back to version 5.0, but it's unlikely that you're going to find any DivX 3 or DivX 4 online, unless you're talking about old files you've saved for a couple years.
