Xbox Live Diamond Membership Card February 18, 2007
Posted by slippyweasel in : Misc., XBOX 360 , add a commentAre you married, and your wife (or husband) doesn’t support your gaming habit, need to save a little money on your gaming-related gear, need to save on food or clothes (so you can afford your gaming gear), and you have an Xbox Live gamertag, then you should sign up for the Xbox Live Diamond Card. It is free, and well worth it if do crazy things like eat, wear clothes, use a computer, or (most importantly) play games. It is accepted by companies like Quizno’s, Papa John’s, Circuit City, Gamestop, and Tivo as well as many other retailers selling everything from shoes to surround sound systems. Check it out here!
Splinter Cell: Double Agent February 18, 2007
Posted by slippyweasel in : Action, XBOX 360 , add a commentThe long anticipated arrival of the latest installment of the Splinter Cell series arrived in October of last year, and it was both a great game, and a bit of a let down. If you have enjoyed the Splinter Cell series, particularly on a Microsoft system, then you will be treated to more of the same great graphics, stealth action, online multiplayer, and the now classic Tom Clancy feel. But, the strength of this game is also its weakness: if you are a veteran of Splinter Cell, then for you, it doesn’t really offer anything new. I suppose this is hard to complain about because Splinter Cell has a great recipe for an enjoyable game, so I highly recommend the title to anyone new to the franchise, but I must say if you are familiar with the series, this one is a rent, but not a buy. – SlippyWeasel

Bungie Releases Halo 3 Beta News February 18, 2007
Posted by xerocube in : Action, XBOX 360 , add a commentFor those lucky enough to get involved with the Halo 3 beta (yeah, Weasel, I’m looking at you), Bungie has released some Q&A on the topic. Even hinting at when the beta will begin, and it doesn’t look like it will be when Crackdown is released. Sorry, chums.
