The Behemoth giving away free Castle Crashers ‘King Pack’ DLC codes
Posted by admin in Technology on February 28th, 2009
Castle Crashers’ first bit of downloadable content, the King Pack, is currently available on Xbox Live Marketplace for 160 Microsoft Space Dollars. It’s also available for free, until supplies last, at the official Castle Crashers message board if you care to enter a ridiculously simple contest.
As artist Dan Paladin recently wrote on the Behemoth development blog, all you’ve to do is click over to the Behemoth Cares about Me! forum thread and post the message “behemoth adores me!” After you do so, you might receive a private message from The Behemoth with a redeemable code for the content.
This has been made possible on The Behemoth’s dime. “We have always wanted our King Pack for Castle Crashers to be FREE. And it’s not!!,” wrote Dan Paladin. “So, in order to accomplish this we went ahead and purchased a ton of download codes from Microsoft for our King Pack to give to you. Yes!”
I’m on my way, Behemoth. Ready that code, Kelly.

Destructoid review: Halo Wars
Posted by admin in Technology on February 28th, 2009
[Editor’s note: The original Halo Wars review was written before I had finished the campaign. This is usual in our industry, where reviewers have to make a judgment call as to whether or not they have played enough for review. A number of our readers disagreed with the judgment call made, The Extraordinary Edible Egg in particular, and as the debate has continued, we have decided to address the issue with a very simple fix.

Destructoid review: 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand
Posted by admin in Technology on February 28th, 2009
If the members of KISS can have their faces on a lunchbox, and Aerosmith has its name attached to multiple games, why not 50 Cent?
State what you’ll about his music, but Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson III should be recognized as a shrewd businessman. From music to movies, clothing to Vitamin Water, the man’s put his name and G-Unit “branding” on more than a few products. And then in 2005, Sierra published 50 Cent: Bulletproof, a third-person action shooter that was received as mediocre by most critics and gamers alike.

Dante’s Inferno trailer is not what we expected the book to look like
Posted by admin in Technology on February 28th, 2009
OK, so let’s clear things up. Dante’s Inferno is Electronic Arts’ third-person action title that will be loosely-based on a portion of Dante Aligheri’s poem, The Divine Comedy.
