The Gamerscore Blog guys are confirming a few games that will be headed to the Xbox 360 Platinum Hits lineup on March 16th in North America. If you didn't know, the Platinum Hits program is a list of games that have been singled out to retail for $29.99, because they "supposedly" achieved greatness during their lifetime. We may not always agree with certain games that come to the Platinum Hits, but nobody can disagree with the cheaper pricetag. Below is a list of games that will become Platinum Hits in North America.

Battlefield 2: Modern Combat
Burnout Revenge
Call of Duty 2
Dead or Alive 4
Fight Night Round 3
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter

Burnout: Revenge mystery auto-update

Posted Apr 11th 2006 12:15AM by Ken Weeks
Filed under: Burnout Revenge

Remember that mystery meat the cafeteria lady used to dish out in highschool? If you booted your copy Burnout: Revenge this evening you got an automatic update via XBL. Sounds good. The problem is, for a minute there nobody was sure what this update did, including the Director of Xbox Live Programming (aka Major Nelson). Major says he doesn't have the full details, but you can now burn out in those cars you downloaded from the Xbox kiosk.

Xboxic readers report it will also re-set the Top 20 videos every month, making it easier to get that achievement.

[Thanks Gary]

First review of Burnout: Revenge for 360

Posted Mar 5th 2006 1:00AM by Ken Weeks
Filed under: Burnout Revenge

1UP has posted the first review of Burnout: Revenge for the 360:

People who have played the current-gen version should get the 360 version if:

They didn't play it to completion, but wanted to.
They played it to completion, but love Burnout a lot.
They have a nice HDTV and stereo system.
They are addicted to achievement points and playing on Live.

People who haven't played the current-gen version should get the 360 version if:

They are breathing.

I assume most of our readers fall somewhere in the first category and all in the second. See you at the cash register this Tuesday.

Burnout Revenge at CES

Posted Jan 6th 2006 3:45PM by Adams Briscoe
Filed under: Burnout Revenge

Gamers attending the International Consumer Electronics Show are getting a taste of Burnout Revenge during a short (but playable) demo. IGN is sharing their thoughts with a hands-on preview and so far it looks good. While some of the features that will be shipping with the retail version weren't available, the "extremely polished" aesthetics running at 60 frames per second are enough to make even the most skeptical gamers salivate.
