Reactions: Xbox 360 conjures the Witcher 2 April 17th
There are a lot of numbers in that headline. But that’s not what I’m reporting on! No, instead, I’m glad to inform you that one of the PC’s best games of 2011 will finally be making its way to the 360 on April 17th, 2012. And it’s not just a simple port.

Reactions: Fresh NeXtBox Rumors.
Now with panda support!
Lots of people like to refer to Microsoft’s next console as the Xbox 720. Me? Not so much. I’ve always been partial to “NeXtBox.” It just rolls off the tongue so nicely. But let’s put semantics aside and discuss the deluge of rumors that have been spewing out from all corners of the internet about what, exactly, the NeXtBox will contain.

I have to say that the maps shown here look pretty fun; I sort of want to go play some Gears now. The pack is available now, and for $10, you’ll get five new maps to obnoxiously act out your thrashball dreams on. Below are more detailed fly-through videos for three of those new maps.

Before we move on to how out of touch Microsoft’s marketing people are (oh, there’s a trailer below that will blow your mind), let us first discuss the game featured in the above video–I Am Alive. The title’s development struggles have been well documented and there’s certainly reason for concern when we stop to consider that it shifted developers mid-development and transformed from a full-fledged retail game to a downloadable title. And that gameplay does look a little rough around the edges in the graphical department. But I can honestly say that Ubisoft Shanghai’s take on the post-apocalypse is one of my most anticipated games of the year. It’s just fundamentally different from nearly every other game on the market today, and in this humble writer’s hopes, has the potential to revolutionize video games’ take on the post-apocalypse in a very positive way. So dude: seriously, just buy it.

Will it be as cool as that alternate ending to Carmine’s epic saga? Probably not. But $10 will net you “five new maps, four character skins and ‘Re-up,’ the Gears version of Call of Duty‘s ‘Prestige.’ Here, it allows players to rank through level 100 multiple times for ‘exclusive emblems and weapon skins.’” Good times, no?

“The middle of the first quarter of 2012,” specifically. And if the video below is any indication, then the core gameplay should be a lot more fun than its predecessor.

That there game seen above is Ryse, a First-Person Brawler designed by Crytek to take advantage of the unique control scheme offered by Kinect. Revaled at E3 2011, it was originally slated for release on the Xbox 360, but if the LinkedIn profile of a former Crytek level designer is any indication, then Ryse has been pushed to “X-Box Next Gen.”
Author: CodyTrailers: So what’s this RAAM’s Shadow DLC all about?
It’s like Epic has a little man hidden inside my mind, listening for all my awesome ideas like A GUN THAT SHOOTS KRYLL. But it’s less of a gun and more of a summon creature spell that RAAM casts with his magics. Locusts have those, right? Well they must, because the only explanation for kryll in daylight is a powerful protection spell.

Just wanted to remind everybody that the remake of one of the greatest Shooters of all time is releasing next Tuesday. Is it just me, or does it seem like Microsoft has devoted like $100 total to this game’s marketing campaign?
