Rumors surrounding the existence of a Wii-type remote for the X-Box 360 have been circulating for the last few  months and until recently, any form of proof, pictoral evidence or official announcement have been wanting.  Follwing an announcement from unofficial games magazine, ‘XBox 360 World’ we feature pictures of the two remotes in development, codenamed ‘Newton’ and ‘Darwin’.

Darwin Remote

Microsoft are reported to be partnering with a company called Motus who have previously been involved with Microsoft on the hugely popular ‘Links’, the rollerball golf game that could usually be found in most pubs across the country before the series died out and was replaced by PGA Tour Golf machines.  Reports speculate that the company has been in talks with Sony for development on a similar project.  Better get their skates on though as the Microsoft motion detectors are expected to be available before the end of 2008.  Expect a more official announcement at this years E3 in July.

Newton Remote

These Microsoft versions are expected to be more accurate and give a chance for Microsoft to reach out to the more casual gamer.  Microsoft domination could be upon us soon enough especially as preparations are already being made for a release of the next X-Box console in 2012.  Still, the battle continues to rage and neither Sony or Microsoft will be prepared to back down.

After being caught up in the razmataz of the GTA IV release and being convinced even more of it’s quality following its sell-out, I was finally able to secure a copy of Grand Theft Auto IV for the XBox 360.  From the 29th April 2008 (GTA’s release date) I called and called, only to be told that the game was sold out in every shop in the local area.  I could tell just how annoyed the staff were getting at being asked the same question every two seconds.

The game starts with the games main character, Niko Belic on a ship.  The ship is close to docking at Liberty City and Niko is talking and moving around the ship.  As he does, the camera pans in and out, you see wide views of the ship, it’s complicated build and design swishes up and down the camera shots while large, integrated writing is emblazened onto the surfaces within those shots, naming the games makers, designers, testers, actors, etc.  Within seconds, you’re hooked.
