Rock Band 2 lands full albums from Chili Peppers, Jane's Addiction, more

Aug 28th 2008 3:37PM (Joystiq Xbox)
I'm in for Foo Fighters, RHCP and possibly the No Doubt. Although, if it's a "Best Of" for them I'm just going to assume it's Tragic Kingdom without that being the title of the album. They didn't have a whole lot of hits after that, IMO.

Rumor: Rez and Chessmaster to release this week [update]

Jan 21st 2008 11:50AM (Joystiq Xbox)
Any idea when Poker Smash is coming out? OXM says it's due this month; hopefully the week following this one. That game looks great and it got a really nice review.

MS open to the possibilty of a 360 Blu-ray peripheral

Jan 9th 2008 10:00PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Personally I think they should definitely pursue a BR drive add-on. The hope of that alone will keep me from buying a PS3. I love my 360 and hate Sony, but as a BR player it's one of the best out there at the moment. Please MS, don't make me turn to the enemy...

This Week in HD DVD: Anchorman game plan edition

Nov 26th 2007 5:09PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Looks like "The Omega Man" is the only one worth picking up.

No more dev blogging for Jeff Minter

Nov 26th 2007 5:05PM (Joystiq Xbox)


I think Minter is a hero, Space Giraffe has saved me easily over $200 in 'shroom costs; well worth the paltry amount of points being charged for it.



In all seriousness though, I remember all of the hype about him working on a new game and stuff... what did it all amount to? A pile of crap. The only reason it probably got thrown on XBLA is because of his past work experiences, but one must never rely too much on their past accomplishments as it leads to being a lazy twat who has nothing to do but cry about his poorly selling title.

Xbox Originals to be achievement'less

Nov 15th 2007 12:58PM (Joystiq Xbox)
No achievements = no reason to purchase. Plain and simple. The no XBL in Halo:CE I can understand, but no achievements??? Come on.

Man sues MS for Xbox Live consumer fraud

Nov 14th 2007 11:35PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Did anyone bother to check his Gamer Tag to see how many achievements he has on Perfect Dark Zero...?

New info rolls in on THQ XBLA games

Nov 6th 2007 8:11PM (Joystiq Xbox)
I still want a Blast Corps type game, that was a friggin awesome title.

Shipping this week: war is hell edition

Nov 5th 2007 10:15AM (Joystiq Xbox)
I thought the first two CODs were pretty sweet; it was the third that blew major ass. COD2 nailed some really cool large battles, especially that last one with the tanks coming through the smoke; awesome. I couldn't stand COD3, but that wasn't made by the original game makers, it was done by Treyarch as oppose to Infiniti Ward.

Gears multiplayer almost didn't make the final cut

Oct 29th 2007 7:41PM (Joystiq Xbox)
Kinda curious what they were planning on selling if there was no multi player (does that mean no co-op too?). The campaign itself is great fun; but terribly short. I couldn't imagine anyone willing to buy the game for its single player experience alone as there is simply not enough there to justify $60...
