Halo 3 V.2.0: WTF?

Finish the fight... again? A new game? A new video? A Pelicanload of possibilities.

Check my impressions at Official Xbox Magazine here.

Get moving Spartans, go, GOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Casey Lynch figures coming in McFarlane Guitar Hero figures, Wave 2

When I was a kid, I was under the impression that you only ever truly made it in showbiz if you had a figure made of you. I would often wonder if Harrison Ford had all his Han Solo figures, the OG Cantina scene outfit, the blue furry I-gotta-rescue-Luke Hoth outfit, the Bespin outfit, the Endor camo trenchcoat.... and what about the medal outfit on the 12" action doll?

Anyways... Kotaku is reporting that Casey Lynch is on the list of upcoming Guitar Hero characters to get the figure treatment, in "Wave 2".

I'm almost there, just a few more steps to stardom and I'll finally be able to hang with Harrison and Mark. Hammil, Mark Hammil. Oh, forget it.

Editorial: Pubgate, or What if Sir Peter Wanted Us To Cheat?

Read and sound off on my Fable II-flavored Pub games conspiracy theories at OXM.

Editorial: Disposable Hero? New Metallica for GH III, yay or nay?

Metallica have a new album coming out. I'm torn, because, well I haven't been a fan since they forced me to break up with them in 1991.

I'm especially ambivalent about a new metallidork record considering the whole thing is playable on Guitar Hero III (and World Tour once that hits) the day it hits stores.

How do I feel about it, and more importantly, how do you feel about it? I opine a bit about the whole mess at OXM here, see for yourself and weigh in.

Review: Turning Point: Fall of Liberty

More like fall of inspiration. Or fall of Spark Unlimited (one could only hope). Meh.
