Tony Hawk Project 8 Soundtrack

While this isn't exactly new news, when I saw the other day that the new Tony Hawk console based skateboarding game would have a monster of a soundtrack, I had to find out more.  Tony Hawks Project 8, which is due in stores in early November, features a soundtrack of 56 songs from a wide variety of artist sampling hip-hop, punk, new wave, funk, metal and everything in between.  While I cannot comment on the quality of the game (although the reputation of this title is very good), I can vouch for the quality of the soundtrack.  Here's a partial list and you can click "read more" to see the entire list.

Star Wars: Empire At War Demo Available

I have never been a big fan of RTS games. I enjoyed Warcraft II and III, but C&C, Starcraft and Total Annihilation never turned me on. There was one RTS that caught my attention outside the RPG genre. It was Star Wars: Battlegrounds. It was fairly balanced and sucked this big geek into the giant world of Star Wars.

Recently, I heard there was another Star Wars RTS in development. After SW:Battlegrounds, I have been anxiously awaiting the new Star Wars RTS. It may not be out yet, but you can check out a single map demo available for download from FileCloud.
