Tenchu Z recently released some images of some of your ninja abilities. I have added the images to my photo gallery. These images show of your ability to go invisible, and impersonate others. All I have to say is, who doesn’t want to be a ninja that can become insivisble?
Just happened to be browsing the Live Eye pages and not that I am shocked but the online now list for halo 3 beta is growing.
Well after a little trouble (which was almost expected) you can now finally play Halo 3 Beta, and due to those issues, we get a few extra days to play the beta…
We sincerely apologize for the delay. We know we have a lot of fans that have been waiting for the beta for months, and even took time off of work to start early today. We really appreciate their enthusiasm, and we hope the small delay won’t damper everyone’s enjoyment of the game. Given the circumstances, we will be extending the duration of the “Halo 3” multiplayer beta from June 6 to June 10, 11:59 PM PDT.
Microsoft is having another All Nighter on Gears of War. Just like the all-nighters in the past there are prizes to be won, and this time you can have your very own “The art of Gears of War” hardcover book.
read all about it on the official page

You might remember I was a winner back on New Years 2007, which I believe was the first All Nighter and where I got my hands on a copy of Gears of War complete with signatures from Trixie & Major Nelson |
So who is going to be participating in this, or are you going to be to busy playing Halo 3 Beta?
Steve519 invited onto the .5 (Live on Live) version of the XBLRadio podcasts. With a little bit of some technical issues, and the fact that apparently everything is ‘alot like Halo’, it should be interesting to see how the show turns out. Rumor has it, the show will be available tomorrow.
If I keep getting all this practice maybe I will actually have to start hosting my own person “squidcasts” here - but don’t hold your breath

About the game:
Eets is a puzzle game with a dash of humor. You are a little guy that loves to eat pretty much anything in his way. You have to manage through over 100 puzzles in which you get Eets from point A to point B using vairous tools provided by you, and tools all ready laid out on the screen. Each tool interacts with Eets in a different way, and you must place these items in the proper way to get Eets to a puzzle piece. Fans of the game Lemmings should find this fairly similar - you cannot control Eets once the round has started, simply replace your tools and retry if they were not positioned in the correct way.
