Awesome Xbox 360

Bungie’s April Fools joke this year is a doozy. Combining the Halo universe with the classic Battle Chess, they’ve put together a game concept that seems just too good to be a prank.

Shattered Dimensions is a beat-em-up with web-slinging and melee combat, in which Spidey bounces between multiple parallel worlds, including a 1930s-inspired Spider-Man Noir universe.

Lost Planet 2 may still be a couple of months away, but in the mean time, here’s something to whet your appetite for blowing up the Akrid – 4-player Co-op mode. Yummy. Explode-y.

After many delays, the highly-anticipated sequel to Mafia finally has a release date. Expect to see the cinematic M-rated killing spree hit PS3, Xbox 360 and Windows on August 24, 2010.

Razer slices into the console market with the Onza and Chimaera, both for Xbox 360; the former is a controller with adjustable analog sticks while the latter is a 5.1 circumaural headset.

It’s been available on Xbox LIVE since October, but Beat Hazard finally gets a debut trailer above; the 1-2 player 2D space shooter uses your own music collection to generate enemies.

With a road-worn finish that screams attitude, the Rock Band Wireless Telecaster Player’s Edition guitar also features Shredderz fret buttons, upgraded Strum Bar and Bigsby whammy.

You’re not much of a shock trooper if you haven’t pulled the trigger on Halo 3: ODST, but here’s the intro (Part 1, 2) if you need convincing; we reiterate that Nathan Fillion is the man.

It doesn’t include Mad Catz’ sweet controllers, but Modern Warfare 2-themed Xbox 360 bundle is a sweet deal with a 250 GB HDD, 2 wireless controllers, COD: MW2 and a custom case.

You’ll lose ’em in thick brush, but Mad Catz’ Xbox 360 and PS3 Controllers put Modern Warfare 2 fans in the crosshairs with digital camo and dual back-mounted Combat buttons.

Both the Wii and Xbox 360 get their own flavor of Logitech’s Wireless Drum Controller with similar specs: stainless steel surfaced bass pedal, 30 foot range and quick fold-flat design.

Coming to XBLA soon, Serious Sam HD is mostly a graphics tweak but we’re still excited over the trailer above; hordes of goofy monsters and gobs of destruction = count us in.

Get ready for a massive 80s/90s cartoon flashback: your favorite half-shelled, pizza-devouring heroes are hitting XBLA and PSN on 8/5/09 with TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled.

This Desperate Measures trailer for Halo 3: ODST shows why Nathan Fillion should narrate every game trailer: it’s a down-to-earth breakdown of the characters, weapons and story.

If you’ve got an Xbox 360 with an HDMI port, you’re in luck: the XCM Black Light Case is a stealthy black case with LED-backlit pre-cut window that’ll rotate between seven colors.

I spy a Covenant plasma pistol: this amazingly detailed Xbox 360 mod by Max is a Halo-themed diorama that should make any Spartan weep; it took roughly two months to create.
