 THQ blames Red Dead Redemption for lower UFC 2010 sales
THQ blames Red Dead Redemption for lower UFC 2010 sales
Published by: LegendaryFire on Thursday, July 29, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,


Last month, THQ reported some not-so-awesome sales figures for its second annual entry into the UFC Undisputed franchise -- to the tune of an almost 50 percent decline from sales for last year's first stab at game-ifying the sport.

In a recent discussion with the print version of MCV (via CVG), Jon Rooke, the company's UK marketing director, provided one possible explanation for the decrease: "That's largely down to Red Dead Redemption," Rooke explained.


Though Undisputed 2010 has managed to ship a sizable 2.6 million units, Rooke stated that the title hasn't "delivered the broader sales yet." He added, "Rockstar have probably taken a fair amount of our market share. They shipped 5m units, taking a lot of consumer dollars." We know exactly what he's talking about: We picked up Red Dead Redemption instead of UFC because we heard the former had really great wrasslin' -- but we were unfortunately greeted with hours of rustlin' instead.

 Master Chief to Return!
Master Chief to Return!
Published by: LegendaryFire on Thursday, July 29, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,


The last time we saw Master Chief in Halo 3, he was sailing off somewhere in the depths of space, passed out via cryosleep, and slowly headed towards a mysterious planet. Who would’ve thought we’d get to see man wake up?

A lot of people, actually, including 343 Industries’ creative director Frank O’Connor who says Master Chief’s return is definite. “We’d have to be the world’s biggest assholes not to follow through,” O’Connor said in a Comic-Con interview. “We certainly haven’t seen the last of Master Chief.”

While anyone can figure you’d have to have ice running through your veins to want to end the Chief’s story at Halo 3, it’s nice to hear that Halo: Reach doesn’t signify the end of our favorite spartan.

 Namco Announces ''Tekken X Street Fighter'' for Xbox 360 and PS3
Namco Announces ''Tekken X Street Fighter'' for Xbox 360 and PS3
Published by: forahobby on Wednesday, July 28, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360, Xbox Live,


NAMCO BANDAI GAMES IS TAKING THE FIGHT TO THE STREETS WITH TEKKEN® X STREET FIGHTER. Two Fighting Game Giants Clash in the TEKKEN® Universe for the Duel of the Decade.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., (July, 2010) – One of the greatest rivalries in gaming history is heading towards an explosive showdown as NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc., announces that TEKKEN X Street Fighter is in development. Set to change the fighting game landscape forever, players will get the best of both worlds, pitting the might of the greatest video game fighters of all time against each other within the TEKKEN® universe.


TEKKEN X Street Fighter will invite Street Fighter® characters into the TEKKEN universe for the very first time. Each Street Fighter character will receive a TEKKEN visual makeover while keeping their fighting style and special moves fully intact. Once there, players will discover for themselves whether they’re really a match for the lethal power of the TEKKEN alumni.

“The ultimate dream match-up is about to be realized. With this astonishing collaboration, a new chapter in fighting game history begins,” said Katsuhiro Harada, TEKKEN series director, Namco Bandai Games Inc. “The Street Fighter and TEKKEN development teams have a great relationship. However, I see this new project not as a collaboration, but as the competition of the century between two legendary fighting game franchises.”

Spanning over a 14 year legacy, TEKKEN is among the most popular and well-known gaming brands in the world with the entire franchise selling more than 39 million units globally to date.

 Ubisoft Confirms Release Dates For HAWX, RUSE And Driver
Ubisoft Confirms Release Dates For HAWX, RUSE And Driver
Published by: LegendaryFire on Wednesday, July 28, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,


Top of the list is HAWX 2, the sequel to the arcade flight-action game based in the Tom Clancy universe. We loved the first game for what it was and can't wait to see what the next game holds. We'll have our own trailer too, so keep your eyes open for that, but you can expect to see the game released on 3 September this year across all platforms.

RUSE too has been dated, again, despite it being pushed back, brought forward and pushed back again. Assuming it's not playing RUSE with itself and its release date again, we can expect to see that a week after HAWX on 10 September.

Driver San Francisco has been slated for Q1 of next year. So we reckon late April.

    XNand Healer GUI v0.5
    Published by: LegendaryFire on Monday, July 26, 2010
    Tagged: Hardware, Homebrew, Xbox 360,


    TingedAce released a new version of XNand Healer GUI. It started off as an uncrippling tool but now changed into a general purpose NAND dumping tool that should really aid the first part of the JTAG'ing process.

    What's new/fixed:
    - Much improved user interface including progress bars during NAND analysis
    - Ability to cancel NAND analysis
    - One-click bad block remapping
    - Added dialog to let you choose how much of the NAND to dump just before reading

    Well that didn't take long did it? Some enterprising folks from China have made available the first ever cooling system for the Xbox 360 250GB. Slipping onto the bottom of the box, this sleek cooling system promises an 'anti skidding' system and a 'shockproof system' in addition to the 'high density thermal design'.
