Xbox 360 Cheats – report bad cheat

That Exclusive We Mentioned

TheSixthAxis: Way back on the tenth of July we posted a little teaser about a title that was previously an Xbox 360 console exclusive but which would soon be making the jump to the PlayStation 3. Almost immediately the comments filled up and other blogs picked up the news and started spinning it and fantasizing about what that game might be. We never said it was a huge game, we said we thought you would be interested and that it was popular. We never staked our reputation on it. We were happy to get a little exclusive from a developer that we saw as a reward for sitting on the news since April when almost any other site would have ruined the announcement by leaking the news. We were pleased that we'd done things properly and that a developer had noticed and decided that they would like to deal with our little fansite. Yesterday goonlinegames.net ran a post suggesting that we had prior knowledge of Castle Crashers coming to the PS3, and that this was related to our earlier post. We'd like to set the record straight that Castle Crashers, whilst exciting for PS3 owners, isn't the franchise we were referring to. [read more]

360 suffers worst quarter in 2 years

A look at the 360's sales since the September 08 price cut. The recent sales boost Microsoft's Xbox 360 console has enjoyed since a drastic price cut in September of last year seems to have fizzled out as a result of stiff competition and the current worldwide economic recession take their toll on the once considered "recession proof" videogames industry. Microsoft reported during their fiscal year end update today, 360 sales for the 4th quarter amounted to only 1.2 million units, it's lowest quarter since 2007 when the console sold 0.7 million units for the 3 month period ending June 30th. Microsoft's Xbox 360 console had enjoyed a sales boost versus its competition when they announced lower prices on all 3 available 360 versions in September of 2008. Prior to that, 360 sales growth had remained flat year over year in their primary, US market to NPD data which tracks sales data in the US. The price cut came in the nick of time as 360 sales trailed their closest rival, Sony's Playstation 3, by over a million consoles worldwide for the 2008 calendar year according to Sony and Microsoft's official numbers. With the price cut in effect, 360 sales and a strong holiday season enabled Microsoft's games console to finish the 2008 calendar year in a virtual tie with Sony's PS3. [read more]
