  7. I fixed mine, now it lets me switch from full to mobile, but not back again, have to alter via ACP then to get full version back.
  8. Microsoft are set to introduce a wireless heart rate monitor called Joule with the next Xbox 360 dashboard update. The monitor will launch alongside a new service called Kinect Play Fit which obtains heart rate data with Joule and stores it in the cloud. Apparently, you will be also be able to use Kinect Fit Play without Joule, but details of how that will work remain unspecified. It’s an interesting proposition, one that we hope has applications beyond straight-up Wii Fit equivalents and Dance Central stat-tracking. We’ll see. Expect more at E3 next month.

  13. Feel like headshotting some Grunts and possibly getting some extra in-game credits while you do it? Then hop into Firefight because starting today and ending on Sunday, games played and completed within that playlist will present you with the chance to receive a 28,500-credit bonus. So stop reading, and go get some!
  14. Deep Silver appears to be planning to release Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition, according to a rating from the British Board of Film Classification. This not being an official announcement, there's no details attached to the listing, so what'll be crammed into the GOTY package is uncertain, but you can bet it'll be the Bloodbath Arena and Ryder White DLC packs. The BBFC listing tags the Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition for release on June 30th, 2012. Stay tuned for the official announcement soon, if the classification proves accurate
  15. New York, NY – April 25, 2012 - Tor Books, an imprint of Tom Doherty Associates, LLC—the largest publisher of science fiction in the world—is excited to reveal the title and release date for the second novel in the “Kilo-Five Trilogy” written by bestselling novelist and renowned game writer Karen Traviss. HALO: THE THURSDAY WAR will release in hardcover alongside a simultaneous audio edition on October 2, 2012. Traviss, whose first foray into the Halo Universe came with the short story “Human Weakness” in Fall 2009’s New York Times bestselling “Halo: Evolutions” anthology, launched her new trilogy last fall with the acclaimed bestseller Halo: Glasslands . A #1 New York Times bestselling author who has penned novels in the Star Wars and Gears of War franchises (she most recently served as lead game writer for Gears of War 3 ), as well as her own critically acclaimed science fiction series, The Wess’har Wars , Traviss has an incredible gift for writing believable and compelling military science fiction. “From the very first page, The Thursday War propels you into a universe on the brink of chaos,” says Frank O’Connor, Franchise Development Director, 343 Industries. “It will immerse you immediately and enthrallingly into the events and circumstances that will come to define the state of the Halo universe in Halo 4 . I can’t wait for fans and newcomers alike to experience the sequel to Glasslands.” HALO: THE THURSDAY WAR picks up immediately where Halo: Glasslands left off, with forces on Earth and among the Covenant threatening a peace that is precarious at best. With a splinter group among the Sangheili pushing for war, some human colonies rebel against earth authority; and as ONI policy continues to shift with the volatile situation in space, the discovery of a trove of Forerunner technology on Onyx provokes leaders on Earth to seek uses for it in the conflict. For the fight is far from over… "I wanted to focus on what it feels like to operate in a fragile ceasefire that’s turning into a mass of small, unpredictable wars where the enemy is much harder to spot and define,” says author Karen Traviss. “It's not about big set piece space battles, superheroes, and hardware; this is a messy conflict seen at close quarters by real people with their own problems, whether those people are human, alien, or artificial intelligences." About Tor Books Tor Books, an imprint of Tom Doherty Associates, LLC, is a New York-based publisher of hardcover and softcover books.

  16. According to a listing on Amazon, Activision is set to publish a new Family Guy game subtitled 'Back to the Multiverse', although beyond the product post on the retailer's site, there are no details on the upcoming title at present. The Amazon listing tags Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse for release this September, and Activision has told Game Informer that there'll be more details on the game shortly. You can pretty much take that as a confirmation of the game's existence then. There's also a logo for Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse below.
