Ghost Recon Advanced Warfigter Release Dates
Gamer’s Hell :: Tuesday, March 07, 2006
Ubisoft has released a new trailer from Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, showcasing the upcoming sequel scheduled for March 9th (Xbox 360 and Xbox – US) and March 16th (Xbox – Europe). The game will focus on the deployment of the Soldier of the Future – the ‘warfighter,’ in military parlance, into the chaos of urban warfare. The main character is Captain Scott Mitchell, the commander of the Ghosts and Special Forces allies equipped with the IWS in the quest to save the president of the United States, recover stolen nuclear codes and eliminate a vicious band of renegade soldiers hell-bent on unleashing catastrophe. IWS (Integrated Warfighter System) is a complex combination of cutting-edge technologies that transforms an individual soldier into the ultimate fighting force. IWS combines advanced weapons systems, satellite communication devices and enhanced survivability into one fully integrated combat system. You can also read a Q&A with producer Mathieu Girard on the PC version delay.

Land of Legends (PC) Review
Strategy Informer :: Sunday, March 05, 2006
Land of Legends, brought to you by Tiny Hero Studios and Shrapnel games, is a fantasy, turn based strategy game. Its cartoony look and feel do have a certain charm, and the game play is deviously simple. Think more Chess than Command and Conquer. No matter which of the three modes you choose to play in, you will essentially be moving pieces around a board, occasionally engaging enemies and taking over cities.

Guitar Hero – PS2
Hexus :: Sunday, March 05, 2006
Dance mats are for parties when you’ve had a few to drink and don’t mind looking a bit of a pratt. Guitar Hero is for whenever you fancy stepping into the fantasy world of being a rock god. So rather than slipping Led Zeppelin into the CD player and grabbing that tennis racket, boot up Guitar Hero and get as close to playing the songs as you ever will without 2 years intensive guitar lessons.

TOCA Race Driver 3 (PC) Review
Strategy Informer :: Sunday, March 05, 2006
Codemasters have put the emphasis on fun and playability, but haven’t skimped on the more technical aspects if you have a taste for that sort of thing. You begin the game slam bang in the middle of a race, with almost no idea what you’re doing and Sean Connery’s grandpa giving you driving tips, which you’d better listen to, or you’ll end yourself up in a wall. It’s a strange way to begin things, rather back to the futureish, what with materializing in a car and all, but if they were calling it reality then you’d need millions of dollars to create the experience that Toca gives you for less than a hundred.

Shane Kim Interview: Halo 3 , Launch, Stock, Demand
Net4Xbox360 :: Wednesday, March 01, 2006
* Next-gen.biz: Is Halo3 coming out this year?
* Shane Kim: It depends. If it’s the game that everyone is expecting then, yes. For us it’s about making a proper impact on the platform. It has to be something with huge significance, so we won’t be rushed.
* Next-gen.biz: Looking back at the launch, and leaving shortages aside, any regrets?
* Shane Kim: Any game developer will tell you they wish they had more time with the hardware. That’s always the case. If you look at the complexity of this console and you add Live…
With the first generation of Xbox we waited a year before launching Live; this year everything went out together. It would have been better to have more time with the development hardware. But this is not a trivial undertaking. It’s very challenging to create this hardware and a network like this.
* Next-gen.biz: Some have said that the launch lacked a single killer game.
* Shane Kim: I don’t think that’s fair. Everyone is looking for a Halo and a GTA, but we have to realize there are only two of those titles in history, and they weren’t those big legends before they launched.
It is easy to look back and say ‘nothing the size of Halo came out’, but the launch titles were all solid good games and there was some amazing work.
I would put this portfolio up against the original Xbox launch portfolio any day. I don’t see the fact that there wasn’t one game that everyone wanted to buy as a criticism. The strength was in the variety.
