120GB HDD, Xbox 360 - £69.99

The 120GB HDD for the Xbox 360 is £69.99 in-store at Gamestation right now as part of their 'Star Buys' promotion. That's the same as RRP on a 20GB HDD and it comes with the transfer kit to move all of your content and saves over without any hassle.

I haven't been able to get an end-date on the promotion but they seem to be selling out fast. I can't imagine this will be on for too long.

RIP Free Radical

One of my favourite British developers has just closed their doors.

Free Radical, creators of the Timesplitters series, has, according to gamesindustry.biz, have closed up shop.

I loved the Timesplitters games, number 2 being my favourite, I have lost hours to it over the years. I loved Second Sight to bits too, it always felt like I was breaking the rules when I wasn't supposed to be, and it had a pretty great twist at the end.

In honour of their output over the last nine years, here's the best price I can find on all of their games. New where I can do, and if used is much of a discount I have included that too.

Haze, PS3 - £9.99 delivered

Sadly, none of their Xbox games have been made 360 compatible yet. Maybe Microsoft is bitter about them going PS3 exclusive (although that is entirely speculation on my behalf).

Who knows what could have lead to this decision. I guess a lot of the blame could be levelled at Haze not living up to what anyone would have hoped. Maybe there was internal management issues. Whatever the reason I wish everyone involved the best, and hope that everyone finds new employment soon. Thanks for the fun times.




BOOSH!
