So I know you've all probably heard about this by now. I think it's insane that they actually arressted someone over this. Especially since the Lite Boards have been up for 14 days prior and look NOTHING like bombs or anything you can conceive as a bomb (Note: a Thin circuit board + wires + batteries = Not a Bomb, Rocket Scientists).

Free DLC courtesy of Epic, MS, and sponsored by the Discovery Channel.

First map is titled "Raven Down".

Second map is titled "Old Bones".

Description: In an attempt to eradicate any traces of human history and culture, the Locust Horde has emerged under Sera's Capitaline Museums and has begun to destroy them brick by brick. Each gamer's mission is to help the Delta Force recapture the museums before all remnants of humankind's existence are obliterated.

Check iTunes top 100.

Soon enough video games are going to get the respect they deserve. They propeled a song to #1 on the iTunes top 100 list solely by placing it in a commercial.

That is amazing, and other forms of media need to recognize.

Gears breaks records!

As "Gears of War" continues to emerge throughout the world ahead of the holiday sales rush, the Xbox 360 juggernaut has sold an impressive 1 million copies world-wide in just its first two weeks of release--elevating the game to the fastest-selling title of 2006 and fastest-selling original Xbox game of all time.  

The battle continues to rage on Xbox Live as well, as more than 850,000 unique gamers have engaged in 10 million gameplay sessions while unlocking an impressive 7 million Achievements.  On top of being the #1 title on Xbox Live, "Gears of War" has also driven new members to the network, as paid registrations per day have skyrocketed more than 50 percent since the game's launch.

Propelling its rise to popularity, Gears of War has been crowned the best next generation game of the year by over 45 publications, earning a 95 percent average review score as tracked by www.gamerankings.com.  Critics everywhere overwhelmingly agree and have united to make "Gears of War" one of the best-reviewed games of all time.

"From the very beginning, we knew `Gears of War' would be an industry-defining hit," said Shane Kim, corporate vice president at Microsoft Game Studios.  "As we watched both the game and its hype grow, it became obvious that `Gears of War' was the rare title that could live up to such incredible anticipation, and judging from the reaction of critics and fans, it's done just that."
