Microsoft have announced today, via Major Nelson, that the prices for the Xbox Live service will be going up on 1st November 2010.
Since gaming has been pretty bleak this summer, I think it's time to look ahead to what games to watch out for on the run up to Christmas 2010.
Being named by the developers as "the end", CodeMasters look to end their rally triology with a massive, and muddy, bang with DiRT 3

Don't know which games to buy on your iPad? Check out the very best games released for the iPad that every gamer should play.
When I first heard about Borderlands, I didn’t really think that much about it. It looked like another average game that I didn’t really need but after a slow month for games I decided to use my valuable game reward points to buy it and im afraid, I was right, it was average. The story of the game is that you are one of four mercenaries, Siren, Soldier, Hunter and Berserker. You have come to the planet Pandora in search of an alien vault which is said to contain alien technology. Now onto the game play. At the start of the game, you chose one of the classes that you level up during the course of the game. The class…
Another video for an upcoming release has popped up this week. A new video has been created by Valve to promote the upcoming Left 4 Dead 2 game. Recently we’ve seen the release of part one of the Assassin’s Creed 2 short movie to support the release of the game. That video followed more of a serious note. Valve have gone for a little less budget, being set in a shed, and less serious video to help promote their game. Check out the video below and remember to pre-order your copy of Left 4 Dead 2 on PC or Xbox 360 before release on November 17th.
To help promote the release of the upcoming game Assassin’s Creed 2, Ubisoft have been creating a short movie. The first part of the movie has now been released onto YouTube.

Along with the 15 minute clip also comes this description: “When the Duke of Milan is brutally murdered, the Assassin Giovanni Auditore is dispatched to investigate. The answers he uncovers implicate Italy’s most powerful families reaching all the way back to the Vatican itself. As…
My final racing game of the year for the Xbox 360 arrived this week and it has certainly proved to be the best one of the year so far. The game shocked me slightly when it first arrived, mainly because it arrived on Tuesday when the game wasn’t released until Friday. The second thing that shocked me was that it came with two discs, one being an install disc. I’m not sure if this is common practice on Forza games, as this is the first one that I’ve bought, but it certainly came as a surprise for me. As for the content of the second disc, when you load up the first disc you are made aware that the second…
I looked at Operation Flashpoint a few times before the release, but I was wary as to whether it would stand up against other FPS games. After hearing a number of people saying how good it really was, I chose to buy it. It’s obviously a big hit with gamers considering the first 2 shops I went to had sold out, been some time since that had happened. The story of the game takes place on an island just off the coast of Japan in the near future. The Russians actually own the island, however, it is contested territory between the owners and China. Sparks start to fly on the island when there is a huge oil deposit discovered and…
