If you missed this from Microsoft's E3 presentation, here is a video from the internets. Hopefully, we'll have something official soon.
This is still pretty cool.

Big Surf Island comes to 'Burnout Paradise' on June 11!

10:22 AM, May 22, 2009
If you've been following Criterion Games on Twitter (twitter.com/CriterionGames), you know that some big announcement has been teased for the last several days.
Well, today it has been revealed: even MORE DLC for 'Burnout Paradise' (Xbox 360, PS3); and this time it's going to be HUGE!
In the last few updates of the game a giant bridge has been under construction between the mainland and an island in the bay. On June 11, games will be able to travel to that island and participate in ridiculous new gameplay, including insane jumps and all new topography that's roughly the size of downtown Paradise. Plus the DLC offers new cars, including dune-buggy-type stadium cars. And Criterion promises "if you can see it, you can drive to it."
After the announcement a video was posted to the Criterion site (click here to watch it) and the new stuff looks amazing!

"Space Invaders Extreme" is coming to Xbox Live Arcade

6:42 PM, April 8, 2009
Good news! One of the best DS/PSP games (ever?!) is coming to Xbox Live Arcade.
It's the crazy-trippy re-imagining of the "Space Invaders" franchise called "Space Invaders Extreme."
If you haven't had the joy of playing this frantic '80's redo, then here's your chance... well, at least for you Xbox 360 owners. Otherwise, go get one of the portable versions... it's a fantastic game.
Kotaku has all the info HERE.

"DJ Hero" is officially official, kind of.

12:25 PM, March 23, 2009
Activision's long-rumored, denied and re-rumored foray into a DJ game, "DJ Hero," is now officially teased HERE.
I, for one, am REALLY looking forward to this game. I just hope it incorporates music styles that are beyond the obvious hip-hop inclusions.
Oh, and it looks like it's coming for every major (non-portable) system. Cool!
We'll see what happens next. Sign up at the official site for updates.

Kiss your free-time goodbye, 'Peggle' arrives on Xbox Live.

11:34 AM, March 12, 2009
PopCap's insanely addictive pachinko-pinball-shooting hybrid game finally makes its way to Xbox Live.
The game is just as great as all of its previous incarnations, but it adds nice Xbox Live multiplayer.
After a few heated online matches last night, I can confirm that online multiplayer is a blast. There are two options: play simultaneously in a party match (with up to 4 people) or play in a same-board duel. Both we equally fun and satisfying.
Hey, and you can't go wrong with more Xbox achievements!

Bummer for us users that just re-forked over another $49.99.
According to xbox.com, Xbox Live Gold memberships are now just $39.99.
No word if this is a permanent price change.
Imagine a day when they'll be FREE!

Need cheap rechargeable controllers for your Xbox 360?

12:39 PM, March 2, 2009
I found a nifty discovery this weekend.
Some Best Buy stores have orphaned Blue and Pink colored Xbox 360 rechargeable controller batteries for $5.99 and $4.99 respectively.
This is way better than the usual $11.99 to $14.99 price normally associated with these things. You can get over the colors... just put a sticker on 'em. Besides, the pink will look cool on the black controller.
But this also brings up troubling questions.
These are the EXACT same batteries as the white, red and black versions... why aren't they all $5.99 or $4.99?
And why is the blue battery a dollar more than the pink? Pink hatred?
I kind of want a pink controller now.
