Guys I haven't finished Mass Effect 2 or 3 should I? Also RE5&6 and Dead Space 2&3.
I bought way to many games. Just a few of my backlog of 50+ games I've yet to complete.

"It's a great time" to own an Xbox One and it's only going to get better, says outgoing Microsoft executive

Xbox One functionality revealed so far is just the tip of the iceberg, former executive Marc Whitten says.

 


Kind of wish they werent making us wait to reveal more, most likely at E3.  Fromt he sounds of it, it may be MSFT's biggest E3 ever this year, but damn, theyre allowed to say things outside of e3 too lol




       

Kinect Sports Rivals Commercial




       

Former Rare artist, Wil Overton, has posted some concept art he did for Rare’s cancelled Xbox 360 Banjo kart racing game via his online portfolio. Check it out:

As can be surmised by the imagery, the game was likely to be more than just a racer featuring Banjo-Kazooie characters, but more of a conglomeration of Rare characters from a variety of Rare franchises. In the artwork, you can see Vela (Jet Force Gemini), Banjo (Banjo-Kazooie), Joanna Dark (Perfect Dark), Sabrewulf (Killer Instinct), Sabreman (Sabrewulf), and a Battletoad (Battletoads). Notice too the different types of vehicles and circuits (Jiggy Pro) the races would have taken place on. It’s very unfortunate this was cancelled as it could have been a big success for Microsoft and Rare, just as the Sonic All-Stars Racing has been for Sega. Once can only hope that something similar to this will crop back up in the future!

Doubt it ever will xD Phil doesn't seem to like Mario Kart type games....or using ideas off other companies and making stuff similar, it reminds me off some crazy car game from the pictures, forgot what it was called but you blew eachother up, sawed eachother etc. it was crazy Lol I forgot what it was called though...


Cell Damage lol...they could make it allot better though .. Idk if I would want a car type game like that or Mario Kart though since I could just play Mario Kart =P

The thing is Diddy Kong Racing (Made by Rare) is by many considered better than Mario Kart.  He may not want a Smash Bros game but id love to see Rare be able to make this.  All thaty nostalgia xD




       

UGH want that kart racer -_-



 

I'm not good at bringning new news (hahaha... ehhh) but I didn't see this posted yet.
