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?

Did Microsoft just pull a 1985 Coca-Cola on the world? Was the "Xbox 180" an eleborate marketing scheme? I examine.

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it
By Starling
Posted on 06/15/13
E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Microsoft Perma-Banning Halo 4 Pirates

Posted on Monday, October 15 @ 08:11:11 Eastern by Alex_Osborn
The ban hammer has fallen. As we reported last week, Halo 4 has been leaked ahead of its November 6th release date and the game has been spreading like wildfire thanks to pirates. As such, Microsoft is taking swift and immediate action, permanently banning gamers for "prerelease title play".

This news comes from Reddit (via Eurogamer), where users have been lamenting the fact that they've taken a pirated version of Halo 4 online. We've included a copy of the perma-ban notification below in the hopes of scaring away anyone who may have been considering the pirate route. Just don't do it.


Please guys, don't pirate Halo 4. The members of 343 Industries have slaved away on this game for years only to have it stolen and ruined before release. We've only got three more weeks to wait. Stay patient.

    I really don't get it how those people can be so retarded...seriously, "Hey guys, I have a brilliant idea! Lets play this game that shouldn't be out for another month that was effectively stolen and play it on our personal accounts while connected to XboxLive!" Seriously, is it so hard to log out, cut off the console from the internet and play it without the risk of your entire friends list knowing about it (and reporting your pirate...make that retarded-pirate... a** to the M$??

    Unforunately, when you connect to Xbox LIVE you will still have the memory of playing that game.

    Well, if you get the achievements from that game. You can delete the game from your history, but it won't permanently delete the history.

    There's plenty of other games to play, why do this?
    I Hope they ban them all... :)

    Everyone knows you can't play pirated games online. You either will be caught or the DRM just can't be hacked.

    Man, what a bunch of idiots. They had to have known that if they played the game online they would have been caught. This has happened before with other games people got really early.

    My friend was worried when i got Asura's Wrath like 5 days early from the Capcom Store. I was like dude, they shipped it early, its not like i'm playing it weeks before it comes out.
