Jubilee Xbox 360 Celebration Pack: Union Jack Skins

Just seen that the leaked news last month about a special edition Union Jack Xbox 360 package has been confirmed by Microsoft. It’s the same white hardware and extra stuff as you get in the older Xbox 360 Family Pack: a white 4GB Xbox 360 S console a white Kinect sensor 2 white wireless controllers Kinect Adventures Kinect Sports 3 months’ Xbox Live Gold membership The only extra to what they’re calling the “Celebration Pack” is that it comes with free Union Jack skins for all the hardware, so that you can make it look like this: That means you [...]

Gun sales banned for Xbox Live Avatars

I’ve just found out on OXM online that the Gears of War Lancer and Hammerburst avatar items are no longer available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace.  Apparently a new policy came into effect for all gun-like avatar accessories on the Xbox Live Marketplace from January 1, 2012. If you’ve already bought guns for your avatar, you should still have those, but it looks like you won’t be getting any more. What a load of bollocks! I am an adult Xbox 360 gamer and I don’t see the point of this ban. They put age limits on these gun games so why [...]

Spiderman Shattered Dimensions [Xbox 360 Game Review]

It’s great fun to play Spiderman, even with the occasional glitches it’s one of those games that keeps you playing, if you know what I mean. You have loads to upgrade as well. With things like power ups and fighting moves as well as web moves…

Burnout Crash will be Kinect enabled - but will it be good?

I am definitely going to get Burnout Crash, as I have Kinect already, so I’ll let you know if it’s crap :D. I am excited. But at the same time, I know how it goes when they bring out a new version of a game I love.  Here’s one example: Burnout Revenge was the most fun driving game of  its time for me.  But when they brought out Burnout Paradise, I thought it was SHIT — only my opinion! It just seems like sequels often ruin the originals and create a less impressive track record.  Is it just me, or [...]

The graphics (and the physics) are beautiful, the interactivity is a big step up from the previous generation, and it looks like I’ll be getting it for the Animal’s birthday.

Why I'm not a big gamer [but I like to watch]

I rarely pick up the controller, because I hate them. They’re fiddly, unfamiliar, and it’s frustratingly difficult to calibrate my movements to their sensitivity. Yep, that’s joysticks for you, vicar. [I'm sorry, my brain's just doing this today.] Kinect has been a joy for me.

Marvel vs Capcom 3 (Xbox 360)

Overall rating: 1/5 Best points: lots of playable characters; controller configuration Worst points: no 3D gameplay; can’t see opponent during special moves. I hired Marvel vs Capcom 3 (Xbox 360) from Lovefilm rather than buy it outright. I was looking forward to this title coming out, but was really disappointed after having a few goes on it. I hoped it would’ve had the same type of  stuff as Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe (Xbox 360) had going for it, with 3D fighting and Freefall fighting. But Marvel vs Capcom 3 is all 2D gaming until you do your special moves… Then [...]
