Red Ring of death is deadlier than heart disease. FACT. Honest.

I'm a big fan of Lost Planet, thought it is one of the better 3rd person shooters out on the market.  So how will Lost Planet 2 shape up?  Well there's a co-op demo out soon

Games Roundup - 11th August

Ok, so ive never really written anything like this before, so bear with me, and all comments and opinions are gratefully received.

Righto, so, Roundup, Whats it all about eh?

Well I tend to read through quite a few different gaming sites pretty much all the time, and just thought it might be useful if some kind soul was to say pick out some of the more noteworthy articles into one central roundup that I could browse.  Sounds good? Well rather than wait for someone else to do one, or go searching for one I thought id have a go at it myself.

So heres my first roundup of some of the better things I'd like to share with everyone that ive found out.

One final point, this is all Xbox 360 stuff, sorry to all you other console jockeys, if I get into the swing of doing this more regular i'll look to expand :D

 

Dragon Age Origins, here we have a video looking at the Human Noble character in this long awaiting fantasy RPG.

So there you are playing Modern Warfare 2, when all of a sudden Fiddy Cent pops a cap in yo ass, mofo.

Youve seen them, theyve been out a while, but maybe youve never had a proper go on them and now you don't think its worthwhile buying them.  Well looky here Capcom have very kindly packaged some of their better older titles into a triple set box set.

For me this game just looks like its gonna be the shizzle.  Dantes Inferno and Team Xbox have a dev diary video all about the 3rd circle of Hell, Gluttony.

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/20523/Dantes-Inferno-Dev-Diary-3/

 

Heres another one I think is gonna be a big contender for game of 2009, ive been waiting for it for what seems like ages, and Eurogamer have done a Preview ready for the release in October.

And last but not least, were you aware that theres a big Xbox Dashboard update, no? wonder what its for? Check it our here.

What's all this then?

So, those of you who are familiar with me personally will know I tend to take the 'etch-a-sketch' approach to my web design projects.  Digital Natives in its current incarnation is nice as it is (http://www.digitalnatives.co.uk) but I want to do more with it, which requires something of a fresh start.
