So I just purchased the brand spankin' new DLC for Crackdown 2, Keys to the City. From their promo video, Ruffian Games has added some new vehicles, weapons, gameplay modes, and mechanics to the already enjoyable playground of Pacific City.

There's only one problem: it doesn't work. As soon as you throw down your hard earned Microsoft Points and try to load the DLC, it freezes your Xbox, and you're forced to restart. Wonderful. There's quite the rabble going down over at Ruffian Games' forum page. According to Gaz Ladden via the forums, "We have confirmation of what the issue is now. The paid part of the DLC was incorrectly configured when mastered..." So for now, here is a way to fix this problem until Ruffian makes a patch for it:

I played WoW 4 years ago for about a year.  I was a lvl 70 human pally in probably worst time the paladins have seen in WoW.  They couldn't out heal a priest, they couldn't out tank a warrior  and they sure as hell couldn't out DPS anyone.  I couldn't get into any PUG and my own guild usually didn't want me to raid with them because I was just that worthless.  So I turned emo and stopped playing because the game had lost it's luster for me.

Now I'm coming out of retirement and I'm wondering if any tank pally's out there have any resources / favorite links / awesome guides that I could take a gander.  So I can get better acquainted to all the new skills.

Many people think as console gaming as the main source of gaming but actually its just one of the many ways to play games. Half life and counter strike are all very good examples of pc to console ports but one of the many not so well known way of porting games for pc to console is via xbox live marketplace, wii ware or the playstation network.

In the not so distant future you will probably be sitting in front of your computer or TV screen adorned with your fancy schmancy 3-D glasses dodging as your video game tries to attack you through your screen.  With the latest infusion of 3-D to the movie theatre, you can rest assured that the gaming industry isn’t far off.

I got home from work last Friday with every intention of trying APB when the servers went live.  The clock hit 8:30 pm, it had slipped my mind that the server went live at 7:00 pm and I had to watch Caprica on SyFy at 9, so that didn’t give me much time.  I go to my computer and ran the game (that took forever to download in their shitty downloader), login, and bam some bullshit about my account being blocked.  For those of you that missed it, I announced on Thursday that I had been invited to join the closed beta for APB.  (Click here if you want to check it out).

It feels like forever ago that I signed up, I've been watching all their podcasts and very much looking forward to their beta. Well I officially got my invite to the APB beta. Here is what it looks like for anyone that did not get one, or anyone that might have had it go into their spam folder.
