REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

I thought that too. It's amazing what a benefit going to the number scale has been for GR.

I saw this too, at first I thought "we on tv" then I thought wait, it's 5 stars not 10/10. It is nice to see though.

They have released a revised commercial that says 5/5. I believe Ugh posted it in the "Awesome" thread.

Yeah, I saw the commercial on Adult Swim while I was at my mom's that week. Luckily she had a DVR, because I had to take a double look.
