News, Far Cry 2

One million copies is nothing to take lightly, seeing that Ubisoft's Far Cry 2 has been (for the most part) under the gaming radar thanks to this Fall's blockbuster gaming lineup that is a bit crowded. We raise our glass to Ubisoft in hopes of seeing another Far Cry grace the 360 with even more explosive goodness and maybe an even more advanced map editor. Maybe ...

THQ and Sandblast just revealed that Destroy All Humans: Path of the Furon will make its way to retailers the week of December 1st. We're sure your copy is already secured with a pre-order.

Path of the Furon will be the first Destroy All Humans title to grace the Xbox 360 and will feature fully destructible environments, multiplayer support and co-op. Maybe its reception will be warmer than the original's lukewarm reviews and maybe Crypto will finally realize that probing cows does absolutely nothing for his human species research.

News, Rock Band 2

Foo Fighters fans should be feeling just fine today, as a boatload of new Rock Band DLC has landed on Xbox Live Marketplace. More specifically, fans can get their grubby little foo fighting mitts on the entire The Colour and the Shape album. The whole shebang will set you back 1600 MS Points, otherwise known as 20 earth dollars. If you like your DLC a bit more piecemeal, you can pick up any of the individual tracks listed below for 160 points ($2) each. Given that their are 12 songs total, the full album will save 320 points, or $4. Now go fight that foo!

News, Xbox Live Arcade

Microsoft has yet to make any official announcements, but it looks like some new Xbox Live Arcade Hits are headed to our favorite download service. Three new titles have appeared on the official Xbox.com Arcade Hits page: Feeding Frenzy, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, and Worms. All of them are listed at a new price of 400 Microsoft Points ($5), half of their original 800 Point price. We checked Xbox Live Marketplace and all three titles are still listed at their original price, so right now all we're really waiting for is an announcement from Microsoft. Given that Wednesday is the day that Xbox Live Arcade announcements are made, we wouldn't be suprirsed if these new discounts are announced today or tomorrow. We'll update this post when we have new information.

After all, Worms + Friends = Party.

News, Left 4 Dead

We're not even sure why you're sitting there reading this. If we were you -- and despite what your schizophrenic side tells you, we're not -- we would be running to our Xbox 360 and downloading right now. But, for the sake of formality: The Left 4 Dead demo is now on Xbox Live Marketplace for all to download and enjoy. The demo includes single-player and online multiplayer sections of the game and even supports two-player splitscreen support. Go get it already!

For those of you lucky enough to have the NXE, we should note that the demo is not currently showing up in the New Arrivals section of Game Demos on XBLM. We had to browse the All Games section for Left 4 Dead (it's under L!) in order to find it. Also, strangely, it can be found in the Game Demos section under the letter L, but only if you sort the list by popularity. Our best guess is that a cyber zombie has been chewing on the brains of Xbox Live. It's the only thing that makes sense, really.
