By Gavin Mannion
April 10, 2007 - 19 years ago

I love these comparison shots that are coming out between the PS3 and Xbox 360. In general the 360 has always had the better of the PS3 in the graphics area but now that the PS3 has been out for a decent amount of time in the US you would think that would start to change. Well thing again, take …

So Microsoft have officially announced what is going to be in the Xbox 360 Spring dashboard update and there are some very interesting things. My favourites of the lot are the simple ones.

April 10, 2007 - 19 years ago

In a recent interview with Mark Rein (Epic Head Honcho) it came out that Microsoft is none to pleased that Epic wants to give away all the GOW maps for free instead of selling it through the XBLA Marketplace. This has now caused a storm in a teacup all over the internet with claims that Microsoft is profiteering on Epics …

They have also mentioned Killzone, Heavenly Swrod, Ratchet & Clank, Lair and Warhawk would see the light of day in September but Sony US has denied this saying that the only one with a release date is …

A weird viral site has popped up which seems to indicate a new Rainbow 6 game on the way…. The site is obviously Ubisoft and it has the little Rainbow 6 logo at the bottom. The site is interesting though as it has a picture of a beaten man who is possibly in a coma and a constant stream of …
