We all know about ‘Metal Gear Solid’ and how it has always been a PlayStation exclusive. A few weeks ago the rumors were that the game would actually be launched for the Xbox 360, but then they were all cleared off after we got the word from Konami themselves that they are a PS3 title.
Now that was a few weeks back, and a lot of things can change but Nooz, a popular gaming site states that they have exclusive information from Konami themselves that they would be coming out for the Xbox 360 afterall. Daniel Boutros is the editor of Nooz, and in our experience he is pretty reliable and its not just another ‘exclusive’ for taking the limelight.
The reason behind the game coming to the Xbox is that the owners just don’t find it profitable enough to be an exclusive since there are fewer number of consoles to gun at. So lets just wait and watch for what is to happen to this, our first reaction is that this could well be true.

While I’m patiently waiting for father Christmas to bring me my Xbox 360 with Gears of War I have to make do with watching the trailers and reading reviews of this awesome looking game.
Wired News says :
“Why is Gears of War so insanely awesome?
Technically, it’s just the same old, same old. You’ve seen stuff like this a bazillion times before. Gears of War is yet another run-and-gun shooter in which you blunder through the post-apocalyptic boneyard of civilization, repetitively slaughtering a bunch of hulking, gibbering aliens.
And the game really is awesome. Indeed, it is staggeringly, derangedly so. I popped Gears of War into my Xbox 360 and sat in a cybernetic haze for three straight hours, emerging with my stomach in fist-size knots, so emotionally and cognitively depleted that I had to consult the instructions on the side of the box before I was able to cook a bag of microwave popcorn”

For the followers of the infamous Legend of Zelda series, there’s a forthcoming release for Wii users to excite you about. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is reportedly coming out the last quarter of this year. This newest addition is tagged as probably the best of its kind that Nintendo ever came out with.
In an announcement made by Nintendo, the said game will come out in two different versions. One is for Wii while the other is for the users of Nintendo GameCube. As with other much awaited Wii games, Twilight Princess will utilize the innovative Wii controls together with the hyped-up Nunchuk accessory. Movements are controlled by Nunchuk while the remote is for aiming and firing weapons.
The lead character in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is a wonderful young boy, Link. He is joined by other major characters which include Midna, Ganon, Colin, Ilia, Rakka and Toby, Hena and of course, Princess Zelda. The story revolves around Link, who was tasked by the mayor in their village to go to Hyrule Summit. In his journey, he entered Twilight Realm where he was eventually transformed to become a wolf, held captive in the castle. Through the aid of strange creature Midna, Link was able to escape. In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, we will witness Link as he transforms from a child to a teenager, and finally to a full-pledge adult going through numerous adventures and misadventures along the way. This is clearly a very enjoyable game not only for the young but for the young-at-heart as well.
If you enjoyed Trauma Center: Under the Knife, chances are you will likely get excited with the coming release of Trauma Center: Second Opinion.
The second in the infamous Trauma Center game series, this exciting game of missions and surgeries is going to be in the Wii system, using the revolutionary Wii remote control and Nunchuk accessories. Interesting enhancements will be included in the package, of course, to distinguish it from the original game. For one, because it uses the cool Wii remote, the controls can be maneuvered systematically to perform certain operating function. The same instruments are returning but the key in this game is quite surely the player’s depth in using the tools. An exciting addition to the tools which can be found in Trauma Center: Second Opinion is the Defibrillator. Surgical tools can also be controlled through the helpful Wii remote while Nunchuk joystick selects tools from the screen menu.
The yet unknown doctor’s mission is mainly to operate and reconstruct the patient’s bones, which will be aided by the stylish and useful Wii remote. Through manipulating the controls and pressing some buttons simultaneously, bone pieces should be put correctly in place. Previously, the operations were done on the torso while in this game, the focal point of the operation would be somewhere else. That is to give gamers the view on different aspects of surgery. That is why, for the surgeon wannabes, this game is a gem.
All in all, Trauma Center: Second Opinion is one way to challenge yourself and make you sweat.
