Video 1 Video 2 Video 3 The quality kind of sucks. But this is the only thing I could find that won't get taken down by R*. Also, these links won't work on IE. So use Firefox or something else.

Well, I know we all take magazine ratings with a grain of salt, but Game Informer's latest issue has reviewed Red Dead Redemption at 9.75. I read it and it has me pretty excited. Concept Transpose the Grand Theft Auto gameplay template onto a Wild West setting Graphics Breathtaking scenery, unrivaled horse animations, and vastly improved cinematic cutscenes over GTA IV make this the best-looking Rockstar game to date Sounds From pitch-perfect gunshots to the daunting rumble of prairie thunderstorms, the remarkable attention to audio detail brings the world to life Playability The airtight aiming and cover system will be familiar to anyone who's played GTA IV, and the hors…

Well Kotaku is reporting that another map pack for MW2 will drop on June 3rd. HERE For those not wanting to click... From Kotaku... Enough whining about the high price of the Modern Warfare 2 Stimulus Pack! It's time to whine about the likely high price of the Modern Warfare 2 Resurgence Pack, due out early next month for the Xbox 360. During a company financial earnings call last week, Activision's Thomas Tippl seemed to indicate that the next map pack release for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 would drop in the latter half of the calendar year. Apparently Thomas Tippl cannot read a calendar, because June 3, the day the Resurgence Pack is scheduled to hit Xbox Live, is d…

For all you Magic: The Gathering fans, the new DLC for Duels of the Planeswalkers comes out tomorrow! http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/other/051110a

I mean wow! this game is way better then i thought. Once you get past the dated (lets face it, EXTREMELY dated) graphics, the strategy and massive amounts of tinkering you can do with this game means you'll be dropping massive amounts of time into it. I'm even missing a good portion of the reach beta because i can't put this addictive game down. If you're into the strategy or rpg style games ,Chris, you'll love this game.

Hands-On with the Halo: Reach Beta Since 2001, I’ve been an avid Halo fan, and some might say, a little too addicted to the entire Halo franchise. Luckily, I’ve been fortunate enough to play the Halo: Reach beta before the general public gets access to it via Halo 3: ODST. Strap your boots on; it’s going to be a hell of a ride! Character Customization Once the Reach menu was shining in all of its glory on my TV, I couldn’t think straight what I immediately wanted to do. Customize my character? Matchmaking? The Arena? I needed to make myself a unique Spartan, so I first headed off to customize my Spartan III. The UI for customizing your Spartan has drastically changed and …

Just announced. Red Dead will have some Co-Op DLC, and even better, it will be free! Linkage

I have my lappy set up for sharing with my 360. It sees my lappy and I can stream music if I run Windows Media Center on my 360, but I can't stream music from the dashboard. I stream a lot of music, in game sometimes, through my 360 from the dash. Something's not quite right with the relationship between my 360 and my new lappy. Any advice?

Anyone tried this? I like it so far! I am going to keep messing around with it. I have not been into a racing game since RC Pro AM (NES) and F-Zero (SNES). I like how you can call down disasters and events that change the race. I know nothing about the mulitplayer yet. I have not tried blur but Split Second felt really fun and I can only imagine the full game being even better.

I have one and won't be using it. If you want it, just post into this thread.

The first game add-on for Left 4 Dead 2 (L4D2) brings the original Left 4 Dead (L4D1) Survivors down south for a meeting with the L4D2 cast, while delivering new single-player, multiplayer and co-operative gameplay for the PC and Xbox 360. The Passing also introduces a series of weekly game mode events dubbed "Mutations." These week-long runs of new gameplay modes range from "Realism Versus" mode to "Chainsaw Massacre," which gives all players chainsaws with an unlimited supply of gasoline. There are over 20 Mutations planned, each playable on all L4D2 Campaigns. Mutations are exclusively available to owners of "The Passing" DLC. In addition, "The Passing" of…

Whatcha think? I think it looks really good, and interesting. Treyarch hasn't had a nice track record with fans though. Since Infinity Ward has pretty much disbanded. It's up to them to make a decent Call Of Duty.

Halo Reach Beta is not less than a week away, and i decided to make a montage. At first i was going to make it just me, but i figured i would make a section for other people. Finally, i decided that if i got enough videos from here i could make some type of Gamercide Reach Montage. So get me your clips as soon as possible, Bungie can pull the plug whenever they get enough data. If you cant file share them to me then i will post here some other way i can get your clips. Post here if you are interested, and when you have a video either send me an xbox message (with file share attachment if possible) or post here.

What do you guys think about it? I think it looks really good, the trailer got me excited.

Gray Matter author and adventure game veteran Jane Jensen is happy to see Gray Matter coming to the Xbox 360: “With the Xbox 360 release, Gray Matter can reach a broader audience, especially people who don’t play PC games very often. I’m very excited to see Gray Matter expanding to other platforms” , she said. Gray Matter will be the first new full-size adventure game by the famous adventure author since the release of Gabriel Knight 3. Staying true to the Jensen-style, the story interweaves gruesome incidents and supernatural events. The Xbox 360 version of Gray Matter will be released simultaneously with the PC version in Q4 2010. The game’s control system has been adj…

Possibly one of the best launch trailers ever?
