So where does this leave 360 Gamer? Will it remain as is? Will we have a separate Xbox One Gamer mag? Or a combined Xbox Gamer? Or perhaps a multi format Video Gamer mag?

I'll probably support you whatever you choose (at least until I know what i want... If anything!) Maybe an adult multi format is the way to go...

Bet you won't give anything away... ;-)]]>

IMO half of the reveal didn't even relate to me. It was all about TV channels and kinect voice commands which I couldn't really see myself using. The TV stuff is probably not even applicable outside of the US of A.
Maybe they should have called it the 'Xbox Sky One' for all the TV features it seems to have!

There briefly touched on recording your gameplay to share to other people which I thought was one of the neat ideas from the PS4 reveal. I'm glad they included something along those lines.

OMG the controller looks huge again, more akin to the original xbox controller, pretty chunky and I didnt really understand the functionality of the supposed 30 new controller patents he briefly mentioned.

The console itself also looks pretty chunky, but console aesthetics never really bothered me, its what it does under the hood that matters.

All in all it seems that the Xbox One has features, upon features, upon features, and very little of what they showed was gaming based. Maybe they should have called it the 'Xbox One Million' cause that's how much money you're gonna need to pay for all the bloody features.

I'm hoping they've saved some major gaming themed reveals for E3 and that's why we didn't see all that much tonight, but as it stands PS4 is ahead in the running of which next-gen console I will be buying.]]>

Anyway, amidst my busy life I have ditched the joypad and started to learn ball room dancing, to raise money for a local Hospice.

Now like most guys in their early 30's who have been playing video games for half their life, i'm overweight and malcoordinated. But that doesnt mean i'm not willing to be reidiculed to raise money for terminally ill patients.

So this Friday i'm doing a Salsa and a Rhumba in front of 400 people to raise money for Nottinghamshire Hospice. If you think this is brave, or stupid, or cool, or you just want to see a video of me practicing with my dance partner (a girl from work who is equally unable to dance) then please visit this website.

If you think this is worth a small donation, then any contribution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys, and when this is finally over you may even see me online a bit more!!

I get quite annoyed that many say Beckham was over rated. He has won major honours in all the Countries he has played, and whilst Paris, and Milan were bit parts on his behalf, the history books will still state he won them. The thing is if he had been a foreigner like Ronaldo (Fat one), Figo, etc that had done that, nothing would be said other than yeah they were fantastic players, yet because Beckham is one of ours (British) somehow he can't be as good.

For me, I watched Beckham after he left Utd, for Real Madrid, and he was consistently better than Ronaldo, Figo, Raul, and Zidane. Admittedly Zidane, and Figo were towards the end of their careers, but there are some that even now still say he was only at Madrid to sell shirts, well that is pure BS.

As a Spurs supporter I should be loyal to ex players, but that fat bastard Chris Waddle spouted some right rubbish in todays paper, he reckoned Beckham isn't even in the top 1000 best premiership players, well in my opinion he is in the top 50.

I for one have enjoyed watching Beckham play, and hope that as time goes by he will be remembered in the the right way, as one of Englands finest.]]>

One of the most successful partnerships in motorsport is back on in 2015 when Mclaren ditches its supply of customer Merc units in favour of some nice new works Honda engines.

Should be interesting to see which Honda turns up this time: the one that viewed F1 as the ultimate showcase for its engineering prowess, as was the case in the Eighties; or the one that saw F1 as a nice marketing tool and won the grand total of one race between 2000 and 2008.

I get the impression that there's a genuine desire to use F1 as a testing ground for technology that may later be used in its road car division, presumably with the focus being on small turbo-charged engines, and hybrid powertrains and energy recovery systems. Plus there may be some scope to transfer some of the tech/lessons learned to its IndyCar and Super GT/future DTM/DTM USA operations, given that they're adopting very similar engine philosophies.

Still,Mclaren must be happy to have a proper, pukka works deal again.]]> http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/107442

I'm hyped for the new Assassin's Creed (Black Flag) as the pirate theme is something that I would like to explore more, and in the AC universe I know it will fit well.

GTA V - Well, who isn't hyped for this, as long as the driving mechanics are improved upon, as I felt IV's were just awful, yet the rest of the game made up for it

Recently restarted Dragon Age 2 so I'm definitely hyped for Inquisition, although DA2 got a bad rep, rightly so in some cases, I'm still enjoying my mage playthrough.

Also looking forward to Thief, Payday 2 and to a lesser extent Lego: Marvel Super Heroes

Note: I will update this thread as and went my feelings change]]>

Has any one seen the new my PunchCard on xbox live rewards? (At least I THINK they are new). Basically they are....well...punchcards! Which, when certain goals are met you get a stamp, and once all stamps are met you get a reward.

So for example the 3 current punchcards that are running till the end of this month are:

1: Goal- Play a total of 5 hours across any arcade games.
Stamps- 4
Reward- Avatar item.

2: Goal- Buy arcade games
Stamps- 4
Reward- one month free of gold

3: Goal- Buy anything over 400 mp
Stamps- 4
Reward- 800 mp

Ok not great but half decent, right?

---

Shit...I got the dates wrong, they ended yesterday, ooops

The new punch card is:

08/05/13 - 15/7/13

Goal: Purchase any film from xbox video
Stamps- 5
Reward- 1000 MP

Sorry about the error!]]>

Over all that doesn't really bother me so much but what does concern me is the comment he has made today about Ferrari.

"It's just that ten is easier to handle, for the promoters, for transport. We'd rather have ten - so long as we don't lose Ferrari."

Even though I am a Ferrari fan I am a fan of the sport more and this just say's to me that Ferrari will now be able to hold the FIA over a barrel to get whatever they want as Bernie has now told the whole world that F1 cannot afford to lose Ferrari.
