Video Games Today

The long awaited Modern Warfare 2 map pack has finally hit Xbox Live shelves. The map pack, which costs a staggering 15$ (1200 Microsoft Points), includes three new maps, along with two old favorites (Overgrown and Crash) from Call of Duty 4. Personally, we will be waiting until the price drops (or it is a deal of the week) to be joining in on the preadolescence fun. Hit the jump to see what we mean.

...Could this be true? Indeed it is, VGToday is returning to giving you a daily dose of all things Video Games, today. We know you've heard this before, but we're serious this time. We will be posting up our new schedule of posting soon, as well as our new schedule for giveaways and the like.

With the shut down of 3D Realms, it seems that Duke Nukem Forever will be delayed even more, after over a decade of development time. Take-Two Interactive still owns the publishing rights to Duke Nukem Forever and does not have plans thus far to provide funding for the completion of the much awaited game. Take-Two has also filed a law suit against 3D Realms for failure to complete the game and a depletion of Take-Two resources and capital. Looks like it is back to waiting for Alan Wake.

With the release of the Primetime feature and "1 vs 100" rapidly approaching for Xbox Live Gold Members, a new trailer has been released from the Microsoft Vaults. This particular trailer shows a sneak peak at some of the possible prizes. These prizes, as expected, are redeemable items on the XBL marketplace. For example some of the prizes shown include 40,000 Microsoft Points, 800 Microsoft Point Arcade Games, etc. Hit the jump for the video.

Here is a link to Joystiq's article on the prizes (With a video included): Click Me!

You heard it right, Microsoft is [finally] covering the E74 error message under the three year warranty that previously only included the 3 light "Red Rings of Death (RRoD)". Microsoft stated that the E74 message means that your box has general hardware failure, the same as the "RRoD", so it will be covered like the RRoD is. If you have EVER previously paid to have a E74 error repaired, Microsoft is contacting people to give out 100$ refunds. If you do not get contacted within a month, you are advised to call support.
