Warlords And Sudoku On XBLA Wednesday

Looks like Xbox Live Arcade decided to follow the Wii's example this week, adding both something old and something new to the mix this Wednesday with Buku Sudoku and the Atari classic Warlords.

Warlords (400 Microsoft points), like many arcade re-releases comes in both original and fancy form, with the extra room leftover from making the primitive graphics less primitive translated into places you can showcase your face or whatever other sections of your body you wish to share with the group during online multiplayer matches.

Then there's Buku Sudoku (800 Microsoft points), which I am very angry with and don't wish to discuss.

Both games should be available via Xbox Live early Wednesday morning.

This week on Arcade: Buku Sudoku and Warlords [Xbox Live's Major Nelson]

Clip: C&C3 With Live Vision Camera

As long as this won't slow down gameplay I am so all over this live video in the middle of gameplay. The best part, being able to humiliate the losers after the game is over, in real time. Brian Crecente More »

Latest by Kaikara: C&C3 will be damn good on....PC not on 360. I just can't see all the micromanagement (uber micro lol!!) and complex tactics working without good old mouse and keyboard. Also for all those interested the flamer fanboy as Emotep has more »

Live Camera Support for C&C 360

Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars could give Xbox 360 fans a bit more live-action cinematic than they've bargained for, as EA announces Xbox Live Vision camera support for multiplayer matches. Now instead of just assuming you lost to a brilliant military thinker and feeling better about yourself, you can actively see that it was a bored 14 year-old who handed you your ass. And speaking off ass...
"Plus, for the winner, the Spotlight cam gives you an unchallenged ten seconds of fame to let your enemy know exactly how you feel about your victory."
There is no way in hell I am playing this on the 360 now. There are things out there you just can't unsee. More »

Block Live Camera Porn

Msoft wrote to let me know that you can in-fact block unwanted Live Vision video streams in games like Uno. Good thing, because the complaints about abuses keep rolling in. So if you're one of those people whose virgin eyes or delicate nature is offended by the sight of nubile nudity or hardcore porn (yes, both have already happened in Uno) then here's your ticket out of virtual Gomorrah.

TGS06: Xbox Live Arcade, Too Nerdy Even for Game Nerds

The last presentation I attended today from Microsoft was for XBox Live Arcade with the general manager of the Xbox Casual Games Group, Greg Canessa. He was quick to point out the success they've experienced over the past year, with 10 million downloads, 30 games down, and a promise of 50 by years end — which means that the regular 1 release on Wednesday schedule will probably get more crowded in coming weeks.

Clips: Xbox 360 Vision Cam on Uno

Short and relatively boring video showing the Vision Camera in action during a game of Uno. Kinda not the most exciting pairing, but still sorta neat. Check out my full early impressions of the Vision Camera here. Brian Crecente

Vision Camera Hands On

Microsoft was kind enough to send me an Xbox 360 Vision Camera on Friday. It's a cute little thing that plugs into the USB port of your Xbox 360. I had a chance to mess around with it over the weekend, though I'm still waiting for Totemball to come out so I can really put this thing through the wringer. More »

GC06: Major Nelson Alludes To Exciting Masturbatory Functions of Vision Cam!

Major Nelson — pictured above or maybe to the right limboing and insanely waving while screaming into a Mr. Microphone — dropped an exciting, electrifying, arousing, possibly titillating feature of the Xbox Live Vision Camera whilst demonstrating it at Microsoft's GC06 Tiki Tent: remote-controlled genital stimulation.

Xbox Live Cam Dated

The Xbox Vision camera for Xbox Live will be hitting the U.S. and U.K. on Sept. 19, according to a Major Nelson Podcast. The camera will work with Uno, the World Series of Poker and a third, yet to be named title, at launch. It will also work with a bevy of new features that will be enabled with the Xbox Live Spring Update that we wrote about last week. Brian Crecente More »
