“This DEMO is intended for promotional purposes only”
Boy have they got that right…. But I’m going to take it a tad bit further for them. Above you see a walkthrough by GearsCON‘s Liam Ashley for the Bulletstorm DEMO now on the XBL Marketplace. If you haven’t Downloaded this yet… you should.
The Bulletstorm DEMO showcases it’s exclusive Echo Mode, a “Point Run,” essentially. This mode takes you through a certain scenario and you “Kill with Skill” earning as many points possible to show your mark on the Leaderboards. And, as the DEMO (Grayson Hunt, Space Pirate) says, “This is just a succulent morsel of the greatest damn game ever made.” There’s a slew of games out there that could rival that, buddy… but there will be MANY people who will agree with you….
This game is highly anticipated and will be lovingly “broken in” by the GCON crew, along with a “Game with the Developers” Event. Keep an eye on their page Here to keep up on the details.
I am counting down the days myself (4) until I can christen this bad boy. I will be brandishing a nice new review for the full game later next week. After that, counting down the days until Gears 3 BETA opens up for us to tear it apart. Oh, wait! You didn’t know? You should… Those who pre-order Bulletstorm for the 360 will get a Gears of War 3 BETA Invitation. I got mine. AND, if you pre-order through Amazon (Bulletstorm Game Box Below), they are giving a $20 Amazon credit toward your next purchase. Win… EPIC WIN.
If you haven’t pre-ordered this bad boy yet…you EPIC FAIL. The game launches on Tuesday, Feb. 22nd. Yes, that’s THIS Tuesday. I’ll make it easier for you…

Out of nowhere, or from IGN, from what I can see… Came this “Epic and Depressing… Epically Depressing? Depressingly Epic?” (Instyle76) Trailer of Dead Island. Either way there are many more descriptive words that could work here. These are probably the best two. Enjoy this Awesome-sauce, and tell us what you think…
Dead Island will be released for Windows, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3. IGN states that the game’s Publisher is TBA, but Wiki notes Deep Silver in this category. No official Release date has been confirmed…
The Defiant Map Pack has been officially announced and a reveal trailer has been released. This isn’t shaky and blurry footage from a handheld camcorder with a hand written note held in front of it, this is the real deal. Hit the Read More link to check out the trailer, and for a link to Major Nelson’s Flickr containing screenshots.
Cruising through the net today in between matches of Firefight on Reach, it was brought to my attention that Halo Waypoint did a piece over Halo couples. Well as you can imagine, John and Des were listed amongst them. The article tells their story of how they met by pure chance.
We’ll be placing a link to the article in our Press section, but until then you can just click the link down below to read through it. I extend my thanks to the Waypoint crew for reminding us that gamers have a place on Valentine’s Day as much as any other couple.
