Hey guys/girls,

Whilst having a browse I found the following RUMOURS you might find very intresting:-

- Niko interacts with pedestrians e.g pushing them if they get in his way. - Niko steals an improved Admiral, proving old cars return. - Niko, in his mid-thirties, is on the run from a “dark past”. - The mafia take a role in the game (although not a main one). - Pop ups are eliminated. - Roosevelt Island appears in-game. - “The game isn’t trying to be photorealistic, but artificial intelligence needs to have a similar quality to the visuals or it’s not going to hold together.” Dan Houser - If you pull a gun out everyone will scatter screaming - One airport appears in the game. Helicopters have been confirmed by Dan as well. - Cross developing for the PS3 and Xbox 360 has apparently been a challenge. - Both systems have their pleasures and pains. - The game will be online (previously only a multiplayer mode was confirmed) - The character customization is not on par with San Andreas. - You can see right into buildings now. - The plot will contain “outrageous betrayals” and “jackknife reversals”. - Custom tracks isn’t confirmed but it is “possible” - Dan wants it to be a huge step up, but still similar to previous games. - There giving us more to do in our [Niko’s] leisure time. - There will be “virtually” no returning characters. “Anyway, most of the characters we liked were dead” DH. - The game is not as influenced by films as previous games have been.

Hey guys/girls so Halo 3 is nearing us! But to tease you all, there are new maps for Halo 2 . also the Halo 3 Beta is coming our way very shortly!! 800 million hours and counting! That’s how much time we’ve already spent playing Halo 2 on Xbox LIVE; that’s how much we love this game and rightly so. From 17 April the Halo community on LIVE is about to go crazy with the arrival of two new multiplayer maps. Not just any maps, but two of the most popular from Master Chief’s historic debut in “Halo: Combat Evolved” recreated especially for Halo 2.

Improved versions of the “Hang ’Em High” and “Derelict” maps will be available as premium downloadable content to anyone playing Halo 2 using Xbox 360 or original Xbox. For this reason the maps will be obtained using the in-game content downloader. They’re priced $4USD (€3 approx), and you’ll need a credit card to make the purchase. Now that’s not a lot of hassle for a heck of a lot of gameplay.

Hey Guys, So as we all Know there is a BIG line up this year as far as new released games are concerned!! But what are you most looking forward to?? Here is a list of the BIG lineups!

Final Fantasy XI Online: 2007 Edition ( Due for release on 30/03/2007) Includes Final Fantasy XI, as well as the three expansion packs: Rise of the Zilart, Chain of Promathia and Treasures of Aht Urhgan.

Burnout 5 (Due for release on 01/04/2007) Burnout 5 gives players license to wreak havoc in Paradise City, the ultimate seamless racing battleground, with a massive infrastructure of traffic-heavy roads to abuse. Gone is the need to jump in and out of menus and aimlessly search for fun like many open world games - in Burnout 5, every inch of the world is built to deliver heart-stopping Burnout-style gameplay. Every intersection is a potential crash junction and every alleyway is an opportunity to rack up moving violations. Of course, rules are made to be broken, and when gamers enter Paradise City, they’re assigned a Drivers License that quickly begins to amass a record of player’s most aggressive, reckless and destructive exploits behind the wheel. But it’s not the law that’s eyeing player’s progress… when gamers push things too hard they’ll be squaring off against the city’s most infamous burners, and these legends aren’t interested in who crosses the finish line first. Burnout 5 also delivers the next level of speed and destruction, with brand new next-generation technology allowing gamers to literally rip their cars in half, in the most explosive pile-ups in the series’ history.
