 NEW hoard mode up now.......
great gamemode only for a short time, if anyone has still got gears 2 you gotta try this with the 8x exp its really worth it.

Anyone who logs time in Epic Games’ Gears of War 2 will earn 8 times normal experience point generation for slicing virtual foes up and down.

Only Epic Games’ official description can do this post justice: “We’re lighting up Horde with one hell of a fireworks display—nine solid waves of Tickers followed by a single wave of pure Boomer action. Best of all, we’re capping it off with eight times the experience across all multiplayer modes. It’s insane! It’s pyrotechnic! It’s this weekend!”

The insane promotion runs now through 9 AM Tuesday, July 6. What are you waiting for?

 Looks like its CAN happen to anyone.
Larry Hryb, Director of Programming for Microsoft's Xbox LIVE online gaming network, has had his Xbox LIVE profile hacked.

Known by his gamertag Major Nelson, Hryb was part of the Xbox 360 launch team and was one of the first game execs to have a regular podcast and blog.

In his LIVE account, his bio info (Name, Location) and the speech bubble appear to be hacked. The hacker have been writing various messages on Major Nelson's account:

Kotaku is confirming with Microsoft whether Hryb has been informed of this hack and what further steps will be taken.

more info in link people....

 usb = save your games on your 360
about time this if you ask me

Documentation obtained by Joystiq – and subsequently confirmed with two separate sources – reveals that "USB Mass Storage Device Support on Xbox 360" will soon be a reality. The document, authored by a senior software development engineer at Microsoft, states that due to "increased market penetration of high-capacity, high throughput USB mass storage devices, a 2010 Xbox 360 system update" will allow consumers to save and load game data from USB devices. The update is purportedly coming in Spring 2010.

Once the update occurs, Xbox 360 owners will be able to download Xbox Live Arcade games, Xbox Live Indie games, Games on Demand, DLC and Title Updates to the storage device. "USB storage devices may, however, have far greater memory capacity than MUs (at the date of writing, the largest MU is 512 MB), and may therefore support previously infeasible operations-such as installation of a full disc-based title." That's right, you can also store disc-based games to the USB device; however, it will require the disc to be in the tray for authentication, identical to the current functionality

According to the document, the USB mass storage device must be at least 1GB and the system will do a compatibility check. "The system partition occupies 512 MB of space, and by default the consumer partition occupies the remainder of the device capacity, or 16 GB, whichever is smaller." Upon inserting a blank USB storage device, "consumers are offered two choices: 'Configure now' or 'Customize'." The "Configure now" option will use "the entire device capacity, up to the maximum of 512 MB plus 16 GB" meaning, regardless of the overall size of the device you're using, the Xbox will only enable 16 GB of usable, non-system storage. The "Customize" option will allow you to "preserve some pre-existing, non-console data on the device" such as music.

It should be clear by now that Microsoft is simply pulling out of the Memory Unit business and not the highly lucrative Xbox hard drive business. With an artificial cap of 16 GB – still shy of the 20 GB hard drive that shipped with the original 2005 Xbox Pro and a fraction the size of the currently shipping 120 GB hard drive – USB storage support simply removes the onerous requirement for a Memory Unit on Xbox 360 Arcade units, and brings the Xbox 360 platform a feature that's been present on the PlayStation 3 since that console's 2006 launch.

If you're intent on circumventing Microsoft's cutthroat hard drive pricing the Xbox 360, you can use two USB storage devices for a maximum of 32 GB of usable storage; however, the console "has a fixed limit of two external USB mass storage devices" regardless of whether they're "formatted for the Xbox 360 or not." If you fill all three USB ports on the console, only the first two to be connected will be recognized.

With talk of a new (slim?) form factor for the Xbox 360 picking up, and plans to abandon (or at least obviate) Memory Units underway, we're guessing those Memory Unit slots could be cut entirely from future iterations of the console.

 Rare’s Perfect Dark remake out in a month, maybe
As near to goldeneye, Rare’s upcoming remake of the N64 hit Perfect Dark, prepare to become more excited, because an Xbox Live rep is calling for a release in “the last week of January or the beginning of February.”

“Logic would suggest that it’s safe to assume that would probably be the case,” the unnamed rep said, “though of course with such a high profile title all parties involved would like to ensure the release doesn’t clash with any other big games.”

Although Microsoft and Rare haven’t announced an official date yet, it sound like we just may be roasting extraterrestrials with exploding Phoenix shells within the next four weeks or so, for the price of 1200 Microsoft Points.

 Xbox LIVE Games coming to mobile
Back in E3 2006 Bill Gates revealed ‘Live Anywhere‘, a service that promised to allow access to Xbox LIVE from a range of devices, even suggesting the possibility of cross-platform gameplay.

well could it hit this year stateside? well maybe...

Internal Microsoft documents have confirmed that Xbox LIVE is on its way to mobile devices.

The service, called “Xbox LIVE Games,” will be available on phones running Windows Mobile software. According Kotaku, the internal Microsoft brochure from December 2009 makes no mention of the service on other mobile software platforms, thus cutting huge chunks from the services potential userbase. Including Microsoft’s own Zune music player.

Information relating to the service was revealed last week, with the discovery of a job vacancy at Microsoft for a ‘LIVE Community Director.’ According to the ad, the role requires the development of Xbox Live “across a range of properties, from Xbox LIVE to Windows Mobile.”
