Source: videogamesblogger.com

Don't mess with Daniel Craig! Er . . . Bond!

Ready to rock the James Bond 007: Quantum of Solace theme in your Guitar Hero World Tour?!

Thanks to Activision you can, as the new theme from the upcoming movie (which hits theaters here in the US on November 14th) is available now for you to download and play to your hearts content!

Guitar Hero World Tour - Band Kit on Xbox 360

The theme is called “Another Way to Die” and is a duet by Jack White and Alicia Keys, which marks the first time a Bond theme is a duet, and treads on mature new Bond-theme ground due to it’s insane fusion of jazz, rap, hip-hop and rock.

The track is up now and costs 160 Microsoft Points ($2.00) or $1.99 from the PlayStation Store.
If you’re curious about Activision’s game based on the movie, then be sure to check out our James Bond 007: Quantum of Solace review to get the lowdown on how it shaped up!

Gears of War price drop to $40. Re-release two-disc version with all extras out on June 24

Source: videogamesblogger.com

Gears Of War for Xbox 360Starting today, Gears of War’s price will be lowered to $39.99 (Xbox 360) and $29.99 (Games for Windows) throughout the U.S. and Canada. It’s another $5 cheaper on Amazon for the single disc version, but for that small difference you might want to check out the $39.99 two-disc version…

On June 24th, a re-release two-disc retail version of Gears of War (Xbox 360) will arrive in the U.S. and Canada. The two-disc version includes previously released multiplayer map packs, the Annex game mode, and the ability to earn up to eight additional multiplayer Achievements worth 250 Gamerscore. Gamers will also get a taste of the highly anticipated sequel, Gears of War 2, through trailers and other extras.

Two-disc version contents includes:
* Gears of War: Game with Annex multiplayer mode, Map Packs 1 & 2, Theme - ‘Emergence Day’, and Gamer Pics - ‘Gears of War,’ ‘Emergence Day’.
* Gears of War 2: Trailers - ‘Duel,’ ‘Assault’, Theme - ‘Bare Your Teeth’, and Gamer Pics - ‘Crimson Omen’.

PS: While this two-disc version contains both Annex mode, and the ability to earn an extra 250 gamerscore (for a total of 1250) from a previous title update, the Xbox 360 version will NOT contain the PC-exclusive Timgad level, so no console Brumak battles.

Halo theme performed at a concert yet again

Source: thexboxdomain.com

I guess this Halo theme thing is rather popular. Who would have thunk it? Guitar Hero 3 gets it, now this performance at a UMGSO Concert five days ago. Bungie’s Marty O’Donnell must be mighty proud of the love his music receives. If you fall into the Halo music roxx camp, why not buy the Halo 3 soundtrack while your at it if you haven’t already.

*Check out the other related video’s to this as well. Their all videogame related.

Get your hands on a Zelda themed custom faceplate

Source: thexboxdomain.com

There’s always room for a custom faceplate, right? If the answer is yes and your Legend of Zelda fan then the above custom faceplate is for you, that is if you bid on it and win. Created for the Xbox 360 owning Zelda fan.

The faceplate is gold in color with a gold medallion over the power button, which will activate the power button when pressed. Green light from the rings of light are visible around the edges of the shield, but the center of the button - the power light - is obscured.

If your interested then it would be wise to hoop to it, because the auction for the faceplate is over in just a little more than 2 days.

Bungie Day ‘07 free Picture Pack and Theme for 7-7-07 only

Source: thexboxdomain.com

company_15.gif

Who doesn’t like free? I know I do, and chances are so do you. Luckily In a complete coincidence of the calendar, the lucky number 7, and Bungie’s number 7 lore, comes a free theme and picture pack on the Marketplace. Good news this is, but you need to get it downloaded TODAY, as for the theme and picture pack will dissappear into the ethos after today. So, turn on that 360 and browse on over to that Marketplace blade and get that theme and picture pack ASAP. If you don’t, don’t say we didn’t tell you.

(update) As mentioned by Pasz in the comments, the Blastacular Map Pack for Halo 2 is also now free. Previously the latest two new maps Desolation and Tombstone where a $4.00 purchase only option and caused half of the Halo 2 playlist to be unaccessible with out them after they where added to the playlist sometime after they were released.

What a day for not having to spend any money. Thank you Bungie. Woot!
