The folks at EA sure aren’t wasting any time with the media train for their next entry into the Need for Speed series.  There’s a theme available in the Xbox Live Marketplace for Need for Speed: ProStreet.  It’s available for 150 Microsoft Points.  I grabbed an image from the actual XLM placement for effect.  I [...]

Ok.  I haven’t seen much press on what happened this week for console gamers around the world.  What am I talking about?  Games for Windows – Live is upon us!  The PC equivalent to Xbox Live is born with the release of Shadowrun and Halo 2 for Vista.  Console owners will now be up against [...]
