Have a look at the upcoming Xbox Live Arcade game, Star Trek: D-A-C. The game is a fairly simple space shooter, to go with the upcoming Star Trek film. Multiplayer and a wide range of ships should make it fun.
As the movie is meant to put a little cool back into the Star Trek universe, this one should make its games more accessible. Who doesn’t love a little classic arcade-style gameplay?
An image of the main character in the upcoming Assassin’s Creed sequel has surfaced online. Named Ezio, the character will appear in 15th Century Venice, where the game is set.
The character appears to be similar to Altair, the protaganist of the original game. Assassin’s Creed 2 will take the players to a different time in Italy. Ezio is said to have gliding wings available, designed by none other than Leonardo Da Vinci himself. He also carries hidden blades on both arms, and will have a wider variety of weapons available.
The game also promises to offer up more variety in gameplay, as the first Assassin’s Creed was a bit repetetive. Ezio will also be able to accomplish one simple task that Altair apparently couldn’t do: swimming.

Halo 3‘s long-awaited Mythic Map Pack has finally arrived on Xbox Live — at least, for those who didn’t already get it with the Halo Wars Limited Edition.
The Mythic Map Pack adds three new maps to Halo 3′s multiplayer: Assembly, Orbital and Sandbox. It can be downloaded from the Xbox Live Marketplace for 800 Microsoft Points.
The Mythic pack also contains new achievements that can be earned specifically on the new maps, such as the search for skulls hidden within them.
Online retail giant Amazon has begun selling Xbox Live Arcade titles, along with Microsoft points, from its online store. Amazon.com launched the new store yesterday in the U.S.
When purchasing Microsoft points or Live Arcade games from the site, Amazon will email you a code to use on Xbox Live in order to download the title.
The advantage of this is that it prevents Microsoft from obtaining your credit card information. I’ve personally had this problem — where Microsoft billed my credit card when it wasn’t supposed to, and reversing the charges (and getting them to remove my card) took quite a bit of work over the phone. I’ve vowed never to give my credit card information to Microsoft again, so buying from Amazon gives me an alternative to purchasing points from a physical store… that is, if the service ever comes to Amazon.ca.
