JX and Fiends is THIS WEEKEND. Events are always fun! This is unofficial so you will not be receiving the Gamer Award, HOWEVER it'll be as fun as any other Event. Thank you JXZAW and ShadowFiend for hosting! It will be a first come first serve lobby. Although, if there are enough people waiting when they start, Shadowfiend said that they could split into two lobbies.

The greatest comic book game franchise in history is back and under control of it's original developer, Rocksteady Games. It's Batman: Arkham Knight and it's going to kick some serious Batman nemesis tail. Self Destruct gave all the Batman fans what they wanted by bringing this to us. Find the trailer in his article.

med_gallery_12241_647_32868.png
This month's Games With Gold for Xbox 360 are Civilization Revolution and Dungeon Defenders. I highly recommend trying Civilization Revolution when you can, it's a very fun game. I don't know anything about Dungeon Defenders but hey, this is what Games With Gold is for! News by Adam.
 
"Halo News" coming E3 2014
Halo-News-E3_02-27-14.jpg
 
Halo at E3. Is there anything more exciting? Sure we have huge titles like Titanfall, Batman: Arkham Knight, and many many more but Halo: Xbox One and Halo 2: Anniversary have been on the Halo Community's minds for the past 3 weeks to about a month now. What will it be? Will it be both? BeckoningZebra gives you the inside scoop on what may be to come this E3.
 
Leaked Titanfall Images and Speculation
med_gallery_30063_641_15077.jpg
 
Leaked Titanfall images have surfaced and Cooliest has got you covered. The Xbox One exclusive title, Titanfall is going to be an epic game which includes styles from many of our favorite shooter games. I've only heard good things from people who played in the Beta. Check out the images by peeping Cooliest's article.
 
 
 
343i Community Yearbook

A genius idea for us to get a better mental image of each other created by Scotty, it's the 343i Community Yearbook. Above is a real life picture of GSD. This is why he never has a mic when he plays Xbox, it's too hard to get around his ears. A handsome fellow he is though. For more pictures of our stunning members, click on GSD's yearbook pic.

YOUTUBE
Halo Wars 2 Story Continued
 
Above is a video by our Affiliate from Forge World Maps, Brett. Brett has come upon the description of Halo: Escalation #6 and relayed the info that it is about the Spirit of fire returning, confirming Ardent Prayer's hypothesis from reading the previous descriptions of the graphic comic! Wonderful news. Watch Brett's video above.
 
 
Thanks for tuning in this week. Sorry it was a day late but you could scroll back up and read it all over again.

I now feel like an idiot for not doing well on the Ninja vs Forum Event. I guess next time I should train more after not playing Halo recently. At least now everyone know who won and who lost. It was still great fun though. ;)

 

I should hopefully be attending this weeks Event. :)

 

Congratulations on Member of the Month Spyro. :D

 

Shouldn't anyone who has been interviewed receive the "Special Guest" Award or am I wrong?

Ok. ;) I've seen previous Members that have been interviewed and realized they hadn't even earned their award. There may still be some that need it.

 

Yea two members haven't been awarded with that Award because they were banned, no point in giving it to them :lol:

This wrap up looks like it turned on the heat! Great one Drizzy! I notice everyone's excited for the (As a Smash Bros fan) Final Destination battle. Where Mario fights Giga Bowser. (New members are Mario, and old members are Giga Bowser because they're the ultimate badass.)

Well great going Drizzy, I'm interested in this cool caption contest that's going on. ;)

As always great write up Drizzy.

 

I watched a lot of Titalfall footage of the Beta, and it does look like a lot of fun. Rooster Teeth has a nice long video of a few matches that is great quality. The only thing that I thought was a bit redundant was the way that you take down an enemy Titan when you mount it with your player. I know it's just a BETA, but it ruined a lot of the first impression seeing it over and over.

 

It pains me to say this, but I have decided to get an xbox one, and am really looking into which game to get with it. I know that I won't play it very much, I enjoy my 360 games, and only know of a couple One games that look like fun, Titanfall being one of them.
