You know nice package but something you do not want once you get into it. Darksiders will h...[Read More]

This video is no longer availab...[Read More]
Uncharted 2 Multiplayer Update 3: Clans, Rematch, Booster Balance
This new update seems to be centered around keeping players playing as opposed top waiting dot games to load and waiting for players to join in the lobbies. Sounds great to me. Load times have been decreased before matches and after a game there is a new option for a rematch. It’s also good to see that they have worked to “balance” the boosters. Not sure exatly what was done on t...[Read More]
