March 27, 2007 - 19 years ago

This is completely insane. This guy works for EA and gave us a little demo on how BBR is meant to be played. Completely blindfolded and he ends up getting a perfect score. I was never really interested in BBR but for some reason this video makes me want to give it a shot… How many times do you think …

Xbox 360 Elite – Manufactured

March 27, 2007 - 19 years ago

I am not sure why Microsoft are still not confirming this Xbox 360 Elite? Now we have some manufacturing pictures released onto the internet. The photo is date stamped 14th of February so unless the time on the camera was set wrong these things have been manufactured for over a month now so they will have a decent stockpile when …

Wow, that is pretty much all I can say when I look at how fantastically Master Chief has been painted onto an Xbox 360.

By Gavin Mannion
March 26, 2007 - 19 years ago

So the PS3 was finally released to the PAL territories last week Thursday. So what are the websites saying about the PAL Launch then? The most suprising thing for me was the fact that some Italian stores started selling the PS3 before Friday the 23rd against orders from Sony. I am sure Sony has not taken kindly to that but …

So those clever people over at GameTrailers.com have put together another comparison video for the console wars. This time is is Virtua Tennis 3. What is interesting about this one is that both versions of the game where made by completely different studios, so the fact that they end up virtually identical is amazing. I cannot tell the difference between …
