Good rumors from the Destination Playstation conference. Per some sources at the retailer show, alongside the Gran Turismo 5 Prologue launch on April 15th will be a redesign of the Playstation Store.
The new Playstation Store is rumored to look a lot like the SingStore (that’s it in the picture) and have an improved navigation system. […]

The Turok demo is finally available in North America on XBox LIVE. It’s about time too. I’m all over some more playable dinosaur fighting action - but it will be nice to know if standing in a very short line (in about a week, man this demo is late!) for this game will be worth […]

Got plans this weekend? Bored? Whether you’ve got anything to do this weekend or not, login to Xbox Live and download your free copy of Undertow. It’s the the holiday outage hug-and-makeup gift from Microsoft and the chance to get it free ends Sunday.

Grab 800 not-quite-free Microsoft Points from 1-800-4MY-XBOX. Microsoft started giving away Undertow downloads as a cover-their-butts freebie to make up for the holiday Xbox Live outages.
It’s not exactly a blockbuster game, but it’s free to everyone and nice for those of us who never saw any outages because we’d gorged ourselves on pie and were […]

Now that the Xbox Live version of Goldeneye has been halted the first leak in the wall of secrecy is above. Maybe some developer or laid-off game tester is ticked off that their work will never go live - maybe some fanboy just wants to screw with all of us. Regardless, we’re posting […]

Bionic Commando is a classic 2D-scrolling shooter (and puncher, thrower, bionic armer…) from the 8-bit arcade and Nintendo consoles. Just announced by Capcom is the 3D Bionic Commando Reloaded on Xbox Live Arcade and the Playstation Network. Still a side-scroller, the gameplay looks sweet and the 3D maps and characters are killer.
Check the video preview […]

The make-good for that pesky Xbox Live debacle is finally here, and it’s a fine prize, particularly for those of us who didn’t have any XBL problems. Free game for nothing? I’ll take it.
Xbox Live members — gold and silver alike — will be able to download the full version of the submerged shooter […]

Three individual Rock Band song downloads Tuesday for Xbox 360 and Thursday for PS3. All three of these are about $2 each. All three are a bit more upbeat than last week’s update:

Come get some!
“Sources” report that the release of Duke Nukem 3D as an Xbox LIVE Arcade title may happen soon. From where I sit it can’t happen soon enough, but I’ll settle for a few more months. With the multiplayer upgrades it should be a blast:
And best of all, it’ll feature a four-player online cooperative […]

Major Nelson has been gagged. Along with every other Microsoft employee the official Xbox blogger can not talk about Xbox LIVE because of that class action lawsuit filed in Texas due to the outages over the holidays.
In his weekly podcast Major Nelson discusses how he can’t talk about the status of Xbox LIVE - and […]

Not only did Microsoft not unveil the rumored HD DVD-bundled Xbox system at CES this week, but the company announced they would begin offering TV shows and movies from ABC and MGM - two companies currently aligned with Sony’s Blu-ray.
Somewhere, a Toshiba executive is sitting in a park, watching the ducks and reassessing his life.
The ABC/MGM […]

Harmonix is keeping its promise of weekly downloadable song updates for Rock Band. This week turns up the intensity from last week’s DLC update. Iron Maiden’s Number of the Beast is just a cover, but The Hives’ Die, All Right! and Stone Temple Pilot’s Interstate Love Song are the real thing.
Prices on each song are […]

All that holiday downtime equals a free Xbox LIVE Arcade game to every member of the service. It’s not going to heal all the extra time spent with family for gamers with days off and new gifts to play. It’s still a whole lot better than how Microsoft handled the original Xbox 360 bricking problems […]

Major Nelson, Microsoft’s official Xbox PR-blogger, has been dropping status updates for days. He’s finally posted to Twitter that Xbox LIVE looks pretty good to him. He’d like to know what the rest of us think:
LIVE is looking pretty good now….how is it for you guys-n-girls?
If you’re down hop over to the Major Nelson blog […]
