Gears of War Timeline

March 11th, 2011

At last years San Diego Comic-Con International Epic Games had their annual session focused on Gears of War. The panel did a walk-thru of the E3 demo explaining all of the new features of Gears of War 3. After that the voice actors for the new female playable character was announced. Then the voice actors that would be returning for Gears of War 3 joined the panel.

While this was interesting what I found to be the most interesting part of the presentation was one specific slide that listed the chronological order of the books and games. I took a picture of the slide but it was not very clear so I have recreated the slide here for reference.

I recently purchased a Hauppauge HD PVR 1212. I have successfully tested it and found it capable of recording Xbox 360 game play using the component outputs. This new toy will allow me to add screen shots and even video to future articles.

I have already started to add screen shots to the my in-progress Resident Evil 5 Item and Emblem Game Guide.

I hope that this will make any guides I make easier to follow and replicate.

Remember all of the guides I write are wiki’s so feel free to update them if you have additional info.

Free Xbox Marketplace List Updated

January 30th, 2011

No comments

I have updated the various Free Xbox Live Marketplace Content lists on the site.

The biggest addition and change is the Free Xbox Live Game Add-ons list. This list is driven by a database that is updated once a day, so the list will always be up to date. The only downside is the list currently includes desisted items and I will be working on a method to identify these items.

I will also be updating the “Full” Games and Arcades Games lists to use the same database in the next few weeks.

In order to “catch up” I am doing this final huge update of content that has been released in the past two months or so. This may be the last update as the content becomes search able and the site focuses more and sales and price drops.
