it’s now possible to view if you have already purchased a car while shopping in the showroom via the “Cars Owned” tally under the Car Stats section.
How the hell was this not included in the original release

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Orrery pack now available!

http://xbox360.qj.net/Elder-Scrolls-IV- ... /aid/24226
Bethesda Softworks' has released their second download pack for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion aptly named "The Orrery Pack." Clocking it a mere 9.83 MB, this pack will only cost 150 Microsoft Points, which is a step up from the 200 Point Horse Armor Pack. Once you download this pack, it's time for you to "harness the power of the stars and Rebuild the defiled Orrery, unlocking the secrets of this Mages Guild Inner Sanctum." Not only does this pack cost less than the previous one, but it also seems as if it will give you plenty more to do, if you aren't busy enough already as it is.

Like you don't have enough to do already...!

:D

EA Burnout Revenge patch screwing stuff up...

http://forums.xbox.com/3702841/ShowPost.aspx

Ever since the update and new vehicles the servers have big time problems.

1. Unable to join games.

2. When games are joined rooms can randomly shut down ending the session.

3. Rank is not updated.

4. Rank can changes as much as 1000 positions just sitting in an idle room.

5. Games can shut down mid session dropping every player.

160Mb

EDIT:
Hardly worth the download.

Well I've just played the whole thing, and I'm a little ashamed to say this, but I love it!

Looks great, controls pretty well and seems a nice mix of puzzles and shooting.

With so little time for gaming, most of the demos leave me feeling I've had plenty of that game, but I have to say when this one finished I was dissapointed and wanted to carry on!
...and much to my complete amazement...

I played the demo.

Then I went and bought it.

And I fucking *HATE* Tomb Raider.

In short - I like it, and I never thought I'd say that about a Tomb Raider game. It seems to be what the game should have been to start with instead of the dull shite that it was.
Nothing is worth the effort you put into it.

Demo on May 9th is confirmed in the trailer. :D

Edit - I fogot to post this...
"It is our goal to bring E3 home to Xbox Live members as best we can, all the videos and the news as quickly as possible," vowed Peter. "We will give you the flavor of what's going on, on the show floor and some of the stuff that we are showing and debuting here."

<snip>

Xbox Live members should be able to play many of the demos that even the celebrities will be testing out at E3.

Oof, thats going to be a git for anyone doing an E3 build. They don't tend to need to be as stable as final release code. They also don't always run on final hardware at that point in development either, hehe.

In short, don't expect to be downloading demo's of games that are more than about 6 months out...

Surely this would be discussed in advance, right? Like, more then two weeks... ;)
