  • BREAKING: FFXIII coming to Xbox 360!

    Gamers everywhere, rejoice! During their keynote speech at E3 this morning, Microsoft announced that Final Fantasy XIII, formerly a Sony exclusive, will be coming to the 360. The Final Fantasy series was the only thing tempting me back to a Sony console (I own a PS2 but haven’t played it since the 360 arrived), and I am happy to save the extra money to buy all of the Square Enix games coming out for 360.

    Square Enix, known by fans everywhere as the best RPG developers out there, also announced 3 more titles coming to 360: Infinite Undiscovery, Star Ocean, and Last Remnant. All titles will be out by the end of the year, and FFXIII will launch the same date as the PS3 version, causing a huge war between fan boys and girls everywhere. I can not wait.

    Microsoft, FTW!

  • DRM Update – SOLVED!

    Well, I must say I am pretty impressed. I figured I was going to be a statistic and no longer able to play my XBLA games while Live was down for maintenance. But after one call to Xbox support and only a week gone by, they have resolved this issue to my complete satisfaction. I simply headed over to my download history and “re-downloaded” the content. It didn’t really have to download as it was already there, it simply had to renew the license. But after about an hour of updating (I have quite a few XBLA and DL content) I was back to normal.

    I must say that Microsoft has started to get a handle on the DRM issue. I hope you are as successful as I was.
