...mes this Christmas.

1. Halo 3 for Xbox 360 is my number one pick. Like it or not, it's the game that all the kids are talking about at school this year. If by some miracle you have an Xbox 360 and haven't purchased this game before Christmas, then it's one you must have. The graphics are incredible, the AI is much improved and it's even fun to watch.

2. BioShock is a completely different game. I call it the scariest game I've ever seen on a console, sure I lead a somewhat sheltered life, but I think that BioShock got everything right in this genre. It's a Zombie horror-fest with lots of twists and turns, excellent graphics and game play.

3. Gears of War - The first thing I heard about Halo 3 was that it wasn't as good as Gears of War. GoW is a tactical fighter, you need to think to play Gears of War, it's more like America's Army than say Quake. It's about time that all of these "war" type games got realistic, after all in real battle it only takes one bullet to kill you.

There you have it, a list of some very good games available for this Christmas. Of course every person has their favorite games and I'm sure that there will be some people who's favorite didn't make this list, but the list is a good starting point, especially if there is a gamer on your list and you don't play yourself.more

Next-Gen Console Focus - Playstation 3 - 7th Generation Console With A Cell For Power

...The Playstation began way back in 1986 - when Nintendo was experimenting with disc reading technology. when the CD rom XA format was released, Nintendo began to talk to one of the two companies involved with the standard ... Sony. The two companies struck a contract deal whereby Sony would develop a Nintendo branded console that would load both traditional cartridges and the new Sony-developed CD format for gameplay.

However, the deal fell through in a shocking fashion at the 1991 CES (Consumer Electronics Show) when behind-the-scenes re-negotiations by Nintendo cancelled the contract between them and Sony and struck a new deal with Philips. This sent waves through the Japanese business community as this type of backstabbing had never before been done - it as very un-Japanese. However, the deed had been done, and Sony was left in the cold. They took their technology which they had dubbed "Play Station" and went forward with it, developing their own games for the new console.

The Official Launch of the PlayStation was on Dec 3, 1994 and in North America on Sept 9, 1995. The PlayStation had in fact released over a year previously in Japan and had been the subject of a lawsuit between Sony and Nintendo as Nintendo tried to block sales and production claiming full ownership of the technology. Nintendo lost the lawsuit.

Sony had an innovative advertising campaign that helped to massively fuel expectation for the PlayStation release to a public unaware of Sony as a gaming company. It worked and has helped to push sales of the PlayStation console to more than 100 million units by the end of it's production run in March 2006.

X-Box 360 Red Lights

...hines are very fragile and quite temperamental so it's very important to keep them in an open area and not locked up in a storage unit on your entertainment stand.

If neither of these things work, check your manual to see how to contact Microsoft, or you can look to purchase online a book on how to fix this yourself. From what I have heard, these are very easy to fix, and you can do practically for free what Microsoft is going to charge you $150 for.<...more
