Cavegirl Fragolympics Halo 3 (4v4) Semi-Finals
July 15th, 2008
The Cavegirls, longstanding friends to PraetoriaGuard, were kind enough to invite us to their “Frag-Olympic” summerlong tournament. The first event was the Halo 3 (4v4). Fast forward through a week of playing, and PG had made it to the Semi-Finals. We were up against our friends over at Podtacular, against their top squad, the All Stars. Having played versus them before, we knew we were in for some intense games… and boy were we right! Read the rest of this entry »
Xbox Live - Reloaded.
July 14th, 2008
Today, Microsoft announced the reason why we didn’t get a Spring Dashboard update -
They’re completely rewriting the entire service! Enough banter - let’s get to the goodies…
- Brand new marketplace interface.
- Faster menus & speedier transitions.
- Download a game you play constantly (Like Halo 3 or CoD:MW) onto the harddrive so it loads faster - plus, no loud spinning drive!
- New Avatars that are fully customizeable. You choose how they look - you can then use them in games.
- Multichat. For 8 people. They’ve set this up exactly like private chat now - so you can keep those 8 people in a multi-chat party with you as you go from game to game.
- Integrated Netflix support: You will be able to watch Netflix’s ENTIRE library on your Xbox 360 - and all it costs is a standard Netflix subscription
- Marketplace will be available on the Web. You can log into Xbox Live from your browser and purchase/download items directly to your 360 automatically. (We’re guessing the 360 maintains some type of “low power” mode all the time.
- More screen resolution options over HDMI & VGA
