Have you ever wondered about what happens to all the bling that gets lost in the Bermuda triangle? Wonder no more! Treasure Seas Inc. is a business that makes its profit looting the submerged caves of a remote archipelago. This game will have you driving a cruiser around, submersing a sub, and looking for treasure. Treasure buys upgrades that allow you to explore further. It's like Metroid at the waterpark!

Frontlines: Fuel of War multiplayer demo released
on Xbox Live

If the single-player demo for Frontlines: Fuel of War left a bad taste in your mouth, don't let that discourage you from trying out the game's multiplayer demo that's up on the Xbox Live Marketplace right now.

As far as I'm concerned, you can't compare the demos to one another -- they're like two totally seperate games in regards to quality and polish.

Included in the demo are two maps: one is a city area that supports up to 16 players, the other is an oilfield that allows 32 players to go at it, while throwing in land and air vehicles at the same time.

And if you're worried about the whole lag situation that's plauged many Xbox 360 games already, don't be. For once, the servers are dedicated.

Professor Layton and the Curious wallpaper

I continue to plumb the depths of 4chan so you don’t have to!Today I’m serving up a piping hot cup of Professor Layton, direct to your desktop in 1600X1200 goodness. I’m still on the fence about the game (I’d love to hear a few first impressions first) but I’m loving the style. Reminds me of [...]
