GEARS OF WAR FREE ΠΕΡΙΕΧΟΜΕΝΟ!!

 

 

 

New content for Gears of War coming this week

By: Luke Hepburn

08/01/2007 01:45 pm

 

New downloadable content for the Xbox 360 exclusive “Gears of War" is on the way and what better way to celebrate the New Year than to meet friends new and old online and greet them with the sounds of a chainsaw? Sponsored by the Discovery Channel, the complimentary new content will be available for download via Xbox Live Marketplace early Thursday morning, January 11.

 

By now most of the current maps have been memorised, analysed and brutalised, but this map pack will feature two new maps including one where players fight around a downed King Raven helicopter.

 

Below, please find descriptions of the new maps:

 

* Raven Down: A Raven Helicopter has gone down in the middle of a large scale battle with the omnipresent Locust Horde. Gears have taken out the Seeder and gamers join Delta Forces moving into the crash site from all angles to search for survivors.

 

 

 

 

* Old Bones: In an attempt to eradicate any traces of human history and culture, the Locust Horde has emerged under Seraʼs Capitaline Museums and has begun to destroy them brick by brick. Each gamerʼs mission is to help the Delta Force recapture the museums before all remnants of humankindʼs existence are obliterated.

 

 

 

κουφαλες get ready!!!

This is legit. The Gears update will go out over Xbox Live before the downloadable content is available.

We'll post some more information about this in the morning.

Gates at CES: Microsoft No. 1 in gaming

In his keynote address at the Consumer Electronics Show, Bill Gates said that he expected Microsoft to overtake Sony as the leader in videogame consoles.

<--- τι παιδι!!

 

January 7 2007:

 

LAS VEGAS (Reuters) -- Microsoft Corp. Chairman Bill Gates on Sunday called the early success of its Xbox 360 game console a role-reversing change of fortune for the software giant looking to overtake market leader Sony Corp.

 

Gates also announced Microsoft would offer an Xbox 360 that doubles as a set-top box for its fledgling Internet television (IPTV) service, or a "living room device that does it all."

The Xbox 360, Sony's PlayStation 3 console and Nintendo Co. Ltd.'s Wii game machine are locked in a battle for leadership in the $30 billion global videogame market. Sony and Nintendo came out with their offerings in November, a year after Microsoft introduced the successor to the first Xbox.

 

Having beaten its target to ship more than 10 million units by year-end, Microsoft (Charts) said Sony (Charts), which dominated the last generation of consoles with its PlayStation 2, is the one playing catch-up.

 

"It's a complete reversal of last time," Gates said in an interview ahead of his keynote speech at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. "Last time, we tried coming in a year late with a big, clunky box that cost more and having less titles. We tried that and it's not that much fun."

 

Sony has had an iron grip on the videogame console market with its two previous PlayStation models - combined unit sales of which have hit more than 200 million globally - but its launch of the PS3 was beset by delays.

 

Earlier, Sony said it met its goal of shipping 1 million PS3 consoles to North America by the end of 2006, but did so by diverting some units earmarked for Japanese consumers.

 

The PS3 retails for as much as $600 in the United States versus about $400 for the Xbox 360 and $250 for the Wii.

 

Despite the price tag, Sony said it reached the 1-million-unit shipment mark for North America faster than it did with previous PlayStation consoles.

 

The Xbox 360 is increasingly becoming a main component of Microsoft's plan to take control of the digital living room.

 

The console's online marketplace allows users to buy TV shows and movies and it can also grab content on PCs around the home and put it on the living room display. Microsoft now wants to take it one step further with the IPTV service.

 

"People are underestimating the importance of the announcement that the videogame is the set-top box and the set-top box is the videogame," Gates said. "There's the living room device that does it all."

 

IPTV carriers, such as AT&T (Charts), will be able to offer the new set-top box in the 2007 holiday season to customers who want to play videogames and watch TV from the Web of a quality on par with cable or satellite.
