It freakin' rocks.

But the guitar controller had the strum bar issue, and we're waiting for the replacement to come in the mail. In the meantime I grabbed a different guitar controller from Best Buy that I'll return when the replacement comes in. \m/


Did you get the notice that I believe you are entitled to a free video game because of the guitar issue? I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere on Joystiq.

Attn all Xbox Live (Gold) Members:

I read the open letter from the Xbox Live GM today (on xbox.com) and due to all the crapiness that happened on Xbox Live over the holiday break; all gold members will be entitled to a FREE XBOX LIVE ARCADE GAME.

More details are supposed to be out soon; as to what game it will be and when it will be available. If I hear before ya'll I will post in here and let ya know.

Free games are good!

Expired!?!? You gots no more Xbox Live?


I just watched a video doc for the game "Prototype" that comes out later this year. OMFG, ladies/gentlemen. This game looks badass. GTA meets Crackdown meets Condemned. It looks sick!

Mine is too!!! I've been keeping my RROD 360 alive, somehow, but now I think its to the point that its overheating. It froze up on my playing three different games, yesterday....including attempting to play CoD4 late last night. So, very soon I'll be without a 360 for a month or so.

OH...and new RUMOR posted on Xbox360Fanbody, but I'll give you the direct link from Xbox Evolved.

The above rumor sends "tingles" up my spine!

I have a feeling its probably the same build; just being reworked. I have a hard time believing that this won't happen. Especially with how tight Rare and Microsoft are, and Activision is growing to be the single biggest game developer in all the land. Well, next to fucking E.A. Games.

Now I got peoples telling me I should have my 360 back from the repair center in a max of 4 weeks; not sure if I believe that.


Also; didn't know there is a free guitar hero rip-off online. Johnny this game would be KILLER for you because you can create your own tracks for the game. There is a whole wiki catalog of created songs. I'm downloading a bunch of random songs right now and gonna check out the game as we speak. Its called "Frets of Fire". And its even compatible with the GH2 corded guitar.

Rumor: Special Edition Guitar Hero in the works. Featuring U2 as the game's headlining act. Another special edition featuring Aerosmith has been rumored for a few months, now.

Classic NES title, Bionic Commando, is getting a fresh remake for the Xbox Live Arcade. This XBLA release is to coincide with the new retail version of Bionic Commando that is coming next-gen.
