Great news for Real-Time Strategy (RTS) game fans! In Gaming Steve's podcast interview with Louis Castle, EA VP and designer of Command & Conquer (C&C) and Dune II, he confirmed that a 360 version of Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars is currently being developed by the same team responsible for the upcoming 360 version of Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle Earth 2 (BoME2). For BoME2 a unique control scheme was devised to allow playing RTS games on a console, which would be reused for C&C 3.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.

Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
This is great news! I will rule this game on XBoxLIVE. Hopefully a new Starcraft will not be too far behind.
C&C does pwn, and this game will, on the PC. RTS arent meant for consoles, and it will be poor at best unless it has mouse and keyboard support. and FYI EA doesnt own the right to starcraft.
Whatever dude. Have an open mind and know that nothing stays the same. Battle for Middle Earth is shaping up to be a great console game. There is no reason why this game can't follow in it's footsteps.
This game is the GREATEST RTS. Then again I never played any other one. I got addicted just playing the skirmishes never even liked the solo missions so your right Ghost this will actually force me to go live.
I'm glad this game is coming to the 360. Battle for middle earth is great but I love RTS's. I will have no problem playing both games. Its a great time to be a gamer and own an xbox 360.
