A concerned parent has apparently taken to the official 360 forums, looking for an explanation as to why his son had been banned from Xbox Live until the Year of our Lord, 9999. Microsoft was only too happy to oblige. More »

Continuing the Street Fighter being unleashed by Capcom over the next few months is a special Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix themed Uno deck for the wildly popular Xbox Live Uno game. The deck adds Sagat's stage from the game as the backdrop, places Street Fighter characters on the cards with animated moves on special cards, and adds a whole new card to the mix - the Hadoken card. When someone plays Hadoken, they choose a player. That player must draw cards until they pick up a block or jump card. More »

The New Xbox Experience is almost here, meaning those lovable, Rare-designed Avatars that Microsoft has squeezed into the interface — and games like Scene It? Box Office Smash — will be plaguing your Xbox 360 before you know it. Microsoft and Xbox Live Arcade developers are adding retroactive support for Avatars in a handful of games, with UNO, Bomberman Live, Hardwood Hearts, Hardwood Spades and Small Arms getting updated with the new feature on day one.

A new report from research firm Frank N. Magid Associates reveals that Xbox 360 are not only largely unaware of the console's high definition graphics capabilities, but that nearly a third of owners are unfamiliar with the Xbox Live Arcade service. The report, based on responses from 1800 households (however, only 149 of which actually own an Xbox 360), reveals that while a large number of users have purchased or tried an XBLA title, a surprising number of them are clueless about how they can get UNO, Double Dragon or Pac-Man Championship Edition on their chill white Xboxes.

Microsoft is planning to give Xbox Live users a nice little bonus in the coming weeks by giving away the Carbonated Games-developed shooter Aegis Wing for free. A press release snuck out on Microsoft's own Gamerscore Blog earlier today describing the Xbox Live Arcade release as a four-player "2-D side-scrolling space shooter that combines epic space combat with fantastic visuals... set to a rich symphonic soundtrack." The release has been removed and replaced with information on next week's release, Soltrio Solitaire. More »

Now, word from Microsoft mouthpiece Major Nelson indicates that beta registration is open for the Xbox 360 and Games For Windows crossover gaming network. Interested gamers will need to take a survey to be considered for the beta, which you'll find linked below. More »

Best way to show off you've got too much money and time on your hands? Drive around the Google Wi-fi enabled city of Mountain View, California in your Jeep Wrangler Rubicon while playing Uno and Rainbow Six Las Vegas over Xbox Live. The whole set up will allegedly hit you in the wallet for about $4000, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't do it. More »

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.

]]> http://kotaku.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=204717&view=rss&microfeed=true I still have pretty mixed feelings about the Xbox 360's downloadable content. On the one hand it's a brilliant way to give aging games substantive updates without having to release an entirely new game. And sure, a quality update or meaty content addition should cost gamers money. More »

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 »
]]> http://kotaku.com/index.php?op=postcommentfeed&postId=198369&view=rss&microfeed=true I was up till 2 a.m. this morning playing games, which isn't that unusual. The fact that the game I happened to be playing was Uno, well that is a bit odd. I finally got around to buying the Xbox 360 version of the card game yesterday, mostly because I was waiting for the Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter map pack to download. I just couldn't find anyone to play who didn't have the maps anymore. Dammit! More »

Xboxyde has screens and video of the Xbox Live Arcade version of one of the best cards games of all time, Uno! It began showing up on debug units recently and looks pretty straightforward but very well done. This is a perfect addition to the XBLA line-up and will go a long way to acheiving Microsoft's goal of "touching" a billion users with their console. More »
