At the moment Amazon.com is offering the below magazines for only $5 each for a one year subcription. There is even an option to extend your current subscription for only $5 if you are already subscribed. Unfortunately this promotion is only available in the United States, and will run until June 5th. I think that the Xbox Magazine is a really good deal considering it also includes the demo disc which occasionally comes with additional content such as themes or awards. Never hurts to get something for a lot less than normal.
Ok news for all you Call Of Duty fans out there .. it’s now official !! Treyarch the developers that have worked on the alternate Call Of Duty series alongside infinity ward are now dedicated 100 % to the Call of Duty studio/franchise. They will do “NOTHING” else apart from working on the Call Of Duty franchise. Previously they had worked on such titles like James Bond Quantum of Solace, and a few Spider Man games. But from now on it’s only going to be Call Of Duty.
This could be a good thing as they can now dedicate all of their resources and energy to making the Call of Duty franchise even greater than what it already is.
CVG published the following quote from the developer
“Treyarch is a 100 per cent Call of Duty studio – and it has been for a long time now, long before any of [the Infinity Ward] events occurred,” Lamia told CVG.”We focused all of our efforts on creating the best Call of Duty game we possibly can and what that meant is not working on anything else. We are a multiple team studio and focusing on Call of Duty and Call of Duty gameplay meant focusing all of our teams on that.”
Now what’s everyone think of this ? Do you think this is going to produce a far better game or will it make no difference to the end product ? Ohh and don’t forget .. we also have EA’s KING OF KING’s FPS being released very soon “MEDAL OF HONOR” Maybe once that’s out the Call Of Duty series might just become a distant memory

Now if Bruce Lee was still alive today, would he still be considered the best martial artist in the world today? Or do you think someone else is more deserving of that title now. Also as a side note, how do you think he would do in MMA? Would he be one of the best fighters able to knock out anyone?
I think he would still be considered the best if he were still alive. He is THE martial arts legend. Yes, he would do very well in the MMA.

If you thought the Wii Wheel wasn’t a good enough peripheral for your Sonic & SEGA All Stars Racing or your Mario Kart Wii games then you are in luck, as this new racing peripheral is definitely going to blow that out of the water. Because it is a fully blown up inflatable race cart with a position in the wheel for the Wiimote.
This is actually an accessory that I’m sure a lot of people would actually enjoy, at least children for the most part. Because if you could choose between a simple wheel and an inflatable car, any 10 year old would choose the car and even some adults I know. If you were to be interested in this car though it’ll run you $40 which isn’t too steep, but hey at least it is for a good cause.
Turns out that CTA, the company that is making this product, is also promotingKids Are Heroes which encourages children to take an active part in their community and help others. Bit of a switch that they are encouraging this promotion by using a video game peripheral but either way it’s getting the word out.
So what do you guys think? Is this one of the best Wii peripherals out there at the moment? Or have you seen better? There has to be at least a hundred different types of peripherals for the various games that are out now for the Wii.
Title: Splinter Cell Conviction Genre: Action / Stealth Platform:iPhone/iPod Touch Developer/Publisher:Gameloft Price: $9.99 US Buy now
Sam Fisher is back and revenge shall be his once again even on the iPhone / iPod Touch. Gameloft have done a fantastic job with bringing Sam Fisher to the Apple iPhone/iPod. Spanning over 11 different missions you’ll get to visit places like Malta and even take a tour of duty with Sam in the middle east. As always the storyline for conviction is about Sam’s thirst for revenge for the murder of his daughter and with your help he’ll be able to accomplish this task and put an end to that person’s life the same way he put an end to his daughters.
Splinter Cell Conviction is a 3rd person shooter similar in gameplay to Gameloft’s recently released title Zombie Infectionwhich was released only a few weeks ago. The control system works the same way with the left analog stick moving Sam around. Moving your finger around the middle of the screen will change and move the camera angle around which you will need to do quite often so you can see where you are going or line up your enemies to take them down. Which brings us to the action buttons, on the left side there are two buttons which are used for a variety of different things, from running into cover, leaping out of cover, climbing up ladders and poles, aiming and firing your gun to grappling and performing take down and execution maneuvers when in close quarters and also grabbing an enemy and using them as a human shield.
Other such moves you can pull off with those two buttons all depend on the situation you are faced with. If you encounter an enemy that has information the interrogate button appears when Sam is near an enemy. Once you have an enemy at your mercy you can punch the crap out of them till they provide that much need information. Then once they have nothing else to share Sam ends their pittiful existance. Now there are a few other actions Sam can do. One of them is deadly “MARK and EXECUTE” this only happens at certain places in the game / levels. Once you approach an enemy(s) that can be Marked for death a little black circle appears over their heads. Pressing the action buttion will allow you to mark the targets and then with the press of the other action button will allow Sam to pull off the kill with the greatest of ease. It’s a great feeling to pull one of these off and makes you feel real bad ass. Adding to this is the ability to MARK and EXECUTE enemies from behind doors. Sam can use his “Convex Mirror” to look under the door into the next room and if possible “Mark and Execute” enemies. This is super cool and is a complete pleasure to pull off.
Now there are a few little issues with some of these actions, when trying to move into cover not all locations allow you to do so. You can only take cover at locations defined and allocated by the game. This is a little annoying as you might want to take cover just around a corner where there’s two or three enemies but wont be able to do so. Another issue this time with the aim/firing system. When attempting to shoot enemies if they are a little out of range Sam will not be able to take the shot to take them down. Once an enemy is in range the cross hairs will change from white to red. Only then will you be able to execute your enemies.
The AI in the game as mentioned in video review are not the sharpest tools in the shed. As explained if Sam is hiding in the dark he is pretty much undetectable, he could be standing right next to an enemy they will not even see him. Which is a little silly, on the other hand if Sam has been detected enemies do their best in taking him down with a barrage of gunfire. Now I have to say that even on the hardest difficulty level it does take quite a lot of lead to drop Sam. This is possibly a good thing for the player but it’s not very realistic, especially on the harder levels where your meant to be feeling the pain a little more.
As this is review is accompanied by a video review. Lets take a break from all the reading and click on play to watch the remainder of the review.
Splinter Cell Conviction takes you through 11 missions of non stop action, stealth and even on rails shooting (speed-boat) level, it’s a fine mix of action, stealth gameplay that will certainly keep you busy for hours. The story is great and the gameplay is fun. As explained above there are a few little issues but they do not in anyway ruin the experience of the game what so ever. Gameloft has once again his a homerun with Splinter Cell Conviction, fans of series who own a iPhone will find this quite enjoyable with all the little extras that made the Xbox & PC game so great such as the Mark & EXECUTE, and interrogating enemies. New comers new to the series will also be able to quickly and easily pick this game up and run with it with no issues what so ever.
For the price ($9.99) Splinter Cell Conviction is a must have as its certainly one of the best games on the Apple iPhone/iPod Touch at the moment.
