FABLE
There’s been so many ideas about what Fable would bring to gaming that even for someone who’s played through the game twice, it’s difficult to sort some of the fact from fiction. If you are expecting Morrowind, you are going to be disappointed. Though Fable is indeed a game about freedom and choice, it is not nearly as wide-open as Bethesda’s mammoth RPG — and for that I am a little thankful. No, Fable is a lot more along the lines of an adventure game. It is easily on track to becoming Microsoft’s personal Zelda franchise, should the big MS choose to sponsor a few sequels. It’s an incredibly fun game, even though most of the genre-busting elements have been removed.
FAR CRY
When Far Cry was released on the PC 5 years ago it received praise from the critics.Now the game is just as good and dirt cheap u can buy it for 10$ i recommend it.
GTA San Andreas
The storyline of San Andreas should feel somewhat familiar to fans of 1990s cinema. Borrowing rather heavily from John Singleton, Spike Lee, and Ernest Dickerson pictures, this iteration of Grand Theft Auto is all about the thug life when it was still in its infancy. Following the exploits of young Carl Johnson, the game begins as CJ returns from exile in Liberty City after learning that his mother’s been killed via unknown circumstances. CJ feels pretty torn about coming back too, as he originally left Los Santos five years ago when his younger brother Brian was mercilessly gunned down. Nevertheless, family’s family and Carl returns home to San Andreas to pay his respects.
NEED FOR SPEED:MOST WANTED
Need for speed:Most wanted is a well-balanced, challenging, and substantial racing game that’s worth your while on any system. It returns the series to its cop chasing days while incorporating street cars, culture, and an impressive display of stylized FMV without forgetting the fundamentals: People like to drive sweet-looking, fast cars, they want more than a little freedom, and hey, if there are a bunch of hot chicks too? All the better.

Repairing the redlight on your Xbox 360 can be frustrating and a hassle. Especially when you aren’t sure where to start and what to do. So, what I’m going to do is share with you some Xbox 360 redlight repair tips. That way, you can start back playing your favorite game.
The Xbox 360 redlight repair tips are:
1. The first way to fix the redlight problem is to deal with the overheating of your Xbox. This happens to nearly 30% of the Xbox game systems. That’s why you are seeing the redlights. The reason it happens is because it doesn’t have a cooling system.
2. Another way to repair the redlights on your Xbox 360 is to send it back to Microsoft. It’s free if you are still under warranty. It will take them a long time to fix it and send it back to you, though. If you aren’t covered by the warranty, you will have to pay around $100.
3. The best way to fix the redlight on your Xbox 360 is to repair it yourself. It’s easy to do. I will actually share with you a video that will show you step-by-step what to do. All you need is a little more than 30 minutes of your time and some household tools.
These are some Xbox 360 redlight repair tips. If you want to fix your Xbox now, so that you can start back playing, you should fix it yourself. I’ll let you know where to view the video in a second. After you have fixed your game system, you won’t ever have to worry about the red lights coming back.

The Xbox is the predecessor to the new Xbox 360 console and it was quite successful. It has a large game
selection and brought some new features to gaming like a built in hard drive and online play. Now that Microsoft has moved onto the 360 it can be hard to find the original Xbox anymore. So where do you find one? How much should you pay? What should I know before buying one? These five tips below will answer these questions and help make your Xbox shopping easier.
1. Consoles Cost $90 or Less: The original Xbox stopped selling in the USA for a price of $149.99, but you can find it quite a bit cheaper now. Many stores will sell used Xbox consoles for less than $90. Be sure to shop around because prices can very a lot between stores.
2. Buy Used: Microsoft stopped making the original Xbox in 2005 and most stores don’t carry new consoles anymore. You can still find new consoles if you really want one, but you will definitely pay a premium. Thankfully, Microsoft built the Xbox well, so used consoles are still in good shape. The original Xbox isn’t like the Xbox 360’s that have had technical problems and recalls.
3. Don’t Shop in Retail Stores: You will most likely be wasting your time. All major retailers and most used video game stores have stopped selling Xbox consoles and games. They have moved on to the newer systems and don’t have room for it anymore. Some smaller independent video game shops in your area might still carry Xbox consoles though. Gamestop and EBGames only sell Xbox games now, no more consoles.
4. Shop Online: The best place to find an Xbox console and games is in online stores or ebay. You can use comparison shopping engines or google to find quite a few Xbox’s available. And like everything else in the world, you can find Xbox systems on Ebay too. Be careful when shopping online to make sure you don’t over pay for shipping though, especially on Ebay. Many retailers have a low list price for the system, only to charge really high shipping rates.
5. Watch What is Included: The Xbox originally came with one controller, an AV Cords, and an AC Adapter. You need all three of these for the system to work so be sure any sites where you shop explicitly say all three of these are included. You don’t want to think you got a good deal on a console only to find it didn’t include a controller, which will cost you more money to buy separately.
BONUS Tip: An Xbox console is almost worthless without some games, so try to buy from a store that carries a wide selection of games too. There is no need to spend extra time finding the games at another store, when you can buy them all in one location. And you will usually get discounted shipping on the games too!
If you keep these five things in mind when shopping for your Xbox you should be able to find a great deal and save yourself a lot of hassle. Go buy an Xbox console and start enjoying some of the great games the system has to offer.

GEARS OF WAR ACTION FIGURES- SERIES ONE
The first set of official action figures based on the hugely popular Xbox 360 game arrived in the middle of 2008 to a great deal of praise from fans. NECA produced the figures to a very high standard and stuck very closely to the game designs to create what are arguably the best video game figures ever.
The first set of official figures included the characters Marcus Fenix, Augustus Cole, Locust Drone and Locust Sniper. A box set of all four of the figures, with extra accessories and a variant head for one of the Locusts was also made available. The box set proved almost as popular as the individual figures, and was presented in a very eye-catching window-fronted presentation box.
GEARS OF WAR ACTION FIGURES: SERIES TWO
Series two of the officially licensed Gears of War action figures is due for release in November 2008. The gaming legend’s move to the world of sculpted and articulated collectibles continues with four brand new action figures to add to the range. Once again, the figures were presented with an extremely high level of sculpted detail on both the figures themselves and their accessories.
Series two features Dominik Santiago, Damon Baird, Theron Guard and Locust with ‘Exploding head’ variant extremity. Another box set was released alongside the individual action figures, containing all four of them with extra weapons. Once again, the box set was released in an attractive long box with window-front display.
GEARS OF WAR ACTION FIGURES: SERIES THREE
The third set of Gears of War action figures to be released by NECA is here with the start of 2009. Four new game figures are included this time around, along with an alternate version of one figure.
This new set includes a superb new version of Marcus Fenix, an excellent COG soldier, Theron palace Guard, and Locust grappler (along with alternate Locust Cyclops). As ever, the figures are available with game-authentic weapons and highly- detailed sculpts.
A third box set was made available that featured all four main human characters, but this time the long-box they were shipped in was rather shorter than the previous two box sets. It has still proven to be a huge hit with fans of the range.
No doubt a fourth series of figures, and more Gears of War merchandise, will be announced before long. Fans are already talking about what may happen in the rumoured 3rd game, and with news of a movie adaptation of the Gears of War franchise on the way, it looks like this is one adventure that won’t lose it’s power for some time to come.
