Everyone’s probably seen this original video by now, but have you seen this excellent rendition, featuring none other than the musical styling of Benny Hill?
The answer to the gaming lull

After over 2 hours straight playing this gem last night, I have come to the conclusion that Peggle is the greatest game available for the XBOX360 right now. There is no need for debate, this is fact. If you haven’t played it, you don’t know what you’re missing.
In case you think I’m joking, check my gamertag on xbox.com and see for yourself. I sincerely urge you to give it a shot, something about shooting balls into coloured dots to make them disappear is hypnotic. I understand this post is just a sorry excuse for professing my love for Peggle, but I don’t care, I can talk about whatever the hell I want.
PLAY IT NOW!
Hello XBOX360? Where are your games?

I’ve finished them all…. I’ve completed the expansions on Fallout 3, almost prestiged in Call Of Duty 5 , played through all of the Acts in Left4Dead (online co-op of course), but now I’m looking for something new, as I know a few of my friends are too.
After leafing through a few online release schedules, I’m wondering if my XBOX360 will be gathering a rather hefty layer of dust until the fall. I must be out of touch, but when were games like Velvet Assassin, Damnation and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood (the sequel no one asked for) even announced? Who is honestly looking forward to anything coming out BEFORE Bioshock 2?
This slight of negativity may be stemming from the fact that one of my XBOX360’s has finally red ringed. I say ‘finally’ because, honestly, who expected it to last more than 1 YEAR!? I digress, my apologies.
I’m sure it will improve, but once the playoffs are done, NHL 2009 will be making its way to EBGames and my XBOX360 will see a lot less use. Microsoft is damn lucky they have such a loyal fan base, they can afford these software lulls and non-stop hardware issues.
Links Of The Day – April 27th

Some pretty interesting links found online while browsing during lunch.
- Since the demise of Pontiac has, as of today, been confirmed, this list is pretty interesting for any fans out there.
- Here is another take on the story regarding the Pontiac shut down. I, for one, don’t necessarily want to see GM and its employees laid off, but I DO want to see improvements. Scrapping Pontiac and Saturn don’t exactly make as much sense as getting rid of GMC and Buick, but what do I know?
- Joystiq’s weekly webcomic wrapups are always great. I can’t be bothered to read every comic and instead let them pick ones for me.
- Microsoft’s latest iteration of the Windows 7 BETA includes what some might call, interesting wallpaper. This is my new favorite background.
