The second VIP map pack for Battlefield Bad Company 2 has hit XBLA, the same day as the Modern Warfare 2 map pack. The map pack turns Arica Harbor possible to play in Conquest Mode and Laguna Presa on Rush mode. There are no "new" maps, but its free and adds maps for players who only play rush or conquest (not both). If you are a "VIP", or you bought the game brand new, you get the pack for free. If not you must buy "VIP" access, for 15$ (1200 Microsoft Points), to get any of the free VIP map packs (currently 2 available). Check out a tour of the two new maps, and a link to purchase the map pack after the jump!

The sequel to the N64 title Banjo-Kazooie will be hitting the XBLA this early 2009. Just like Banjo-Kazooie, which released for the XBLA late 2008, the game will be nearly identical to the original with upped graphics and improved frame rate. We will assume the price tag on this nostalgic beauty will be around 800-1200 (10-15$) Microsoft Points. More news coming as it happens!

Note, this is NOT a new Banjo-Kazooie title, it is the original 1998 title that was previously on the Nintendo 64. There are no additional story elements or missions added to this version, and there is not any expected or announced by Rare. We have already downloaded our copy and will have the review up for this game this weekend.
