That's right, your Xbox Dashboard is going to be receiving a redesign. Announced just today this change brings the xbox dashboard even closer in design to Windows Phone 7 & the recently announced Windows 8. The new dashboard should be fully Kinect enabled, and includes a new feature known as bing search. Now right from your dashboard you can vocally search using the power of kinect;the huge selection of games, music, sports, and movies available on Xbox Live.
Along with the vocal search Xbox will be bringing television straight to your console! That's right Microsoft is working to expand their IPTV services. They're so dedicated to this that the new dashboard has a dedicated section for it. Do we have any UFC fans in the house?

Tomb Raider (2012) - Inside the Press Conference Demo
One of the first games showcased during the Microsoft Press Conference at E3 this morning was none other than Crystal Dynamics' highly-anticipated Tomb Raider reboot. This world premiere preview showed audiences a playable teaser of the opening level of the game, wherein a 21-year-old Lara Croft is shipwrecked on a mysterious island and must use her "survival instincts" -- an actual gameplay mechanic -- to escape.
Visually, Tomb Raider looks stunning. It's gorgeous, gritty, and much more realistic than previous titles, from the dingy environments to the hints of desperation in Lara's voice as she limps her way through the sinister-looking cave she's trapped in. From what we were shown of Tomb Raider's gameplay, the first level looked much like an interactive ...by Published on June 6th, 2011 08:03 AM
Batman: Arkham City - First Ever Live Demo
Just a little over an hour ago, Rocksteady's Sefton Hill sat down with GTTV to premiere the first ever live gameplay demo of the highly-anticipated Batman: Arkham City. Aside from how stunning the graphics look, which you all probably have a clue of considering the plethora of screenshots that have been teased, here's what we've learned:
You wanted it, and now here it is -- Catwoman is officially a full-fledged, fully-playable character, with new animations, new moves, and new weapons, including a whip you can use to snatch guns out of enemy hands. Furthermore, Catwoman plays a very integral role in Arkham City's plot, which involves an ongoing dispute between her and another villain, Two-Face. In fact, one of the first decisions Batman is forced to make in the game is whether or not to ...by Published on June 6th, 2011 07:03 AM

Saints Row the Third is bringing more awesome, over the top action. To quote producer Danny Bilson "Saints Row the Third is a completely outrageous game, there's nothing like it out there, there won't be anything like it and people are going to laugh, going have fun, it's a crazy sandbox of wild stuff" Among new things bringing insanity to Saints 3 are a Man Canon which you can use to suck up pedestrians and shoot them back out, and a uh..uhm.. giant purple dildo sword, yup you read that right. The scale is said to be absolutely amazing with the third act of this awesome game you'll be fighting the military?!
How outrageous will Saints The Third end up being? We'll just have to wait until November 15th, 2011 and see!

Section 8 Prejudice is a must-have title for your collection. If you don't pick it up, you'll be missing out on one of the most definitive XBLA games available. With its superb multiplayer, it goes to show that XBLA games can really give full priced titles a run for their money
Multiplayer in Section 8: Prejudice is an absolute thrill. It is without a doubt the #1 Multiplayer XBLA this year. While the game lacks any form of co-op for the campaign it makes up for it with the abundance of modes it offers for you and your friends to play. The three modes available to you are Assault, Swarm and my personal favorite, Conquest.
Assault is a gametype that pits two teams against each other in an epic battle that has one team defending their bases while the other assaults. The game ends when the timer runs out or if all the bases are captured.
Next up is Swarm. It’s your typical "Horde/Firefight/Zombie" gametype. ...
