NoobFeed.com receives more holiday blessings from PopCap Games. See what goodies they have in store for us this year. Then, take a look at what they're preparing to launch. Is that a new title? Why, yes it is.
"Xbox Live has just revealed their “deal of the week” section for Xbox Gold subscribers. The deals are ½ off many Xbox Live Arcade titles including Plants vs Zombies, Peggle, and Zuma with an additional savings on Bejeweled Blitz Live."
"Xbox Live Arcade is home to a lot of unique titles of all types of genres. The Spawn Kill crew fished for each of one of our favorite picks available on the marketplace that we’d recommend to our readers. As usual PopCap games sneak in and are some of our coveted addictions, but don’t be surprised if a zombie or explosionary icon sneaks up on you either. There’s a little something for everyone out there so check out our list of XBLA favorites and let us know what your favorite is!"
"Xbox LIVE Deal of the Week is expanding to six games for this week, the most Microsoft has discounted in one week as part of the program. This week's selection is mostly LIVE Arcade first-person shooters but also includes an addictive "Ode to Joy" puzzler and a strategy game starring worms."
Gaming Target posts the fourth part of their weeklong look at their favorite games from 2009. Eight games will be posted every day with "The Best of the Best" appearing on Friday.
"Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) really came into its own this year. From enormous adventures you can sink dozens of hours into to modest but addictive little puzzle games, Microsoft's downloadable game service has a wide variety of quality offerings.
We know this time of year there are a bunch of new Xbox 360 owners out there, so we've put together this list of the ten essential XBLA games you should download pronto. This is by no means a comprehensive list of everything the service has to offer,..."
"The latest Xtival event – Microsoft’s Xbox LIVE celebration designed to entice Xbox 360 newcomers with a glimpse of the special initiatives available to Xbox LIVE Gold Subscribers – is sent to commence this coming weekend, November 27th to November 29th 2009. Microsoft have begun detailing the attractions that will take place over the seventy-two hours of celebrations, in which all Xbox LIVE members will have their subscription upgraded to a Gold Subscription for the duration of the event."
"For a lot of you out there, the Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) offerings are either too expensive or not appealing enough to warrant inclusion in your game collection. Personally, I look at the XBLA games as a great supplement to any gamer’s repertoire, as well as an opportunity to boost one’s gamerscore by up to 200 points per game. I own about 18 arcade games, and a lot of them were bought cheaper than you’d expect, at discount (Xbox has a weekly special and a “discount” bin of arcade games)."
"PopCap Games have announced the immediate availability of ten all-new World of Warcraft-themed Peggle levels. Available for free at www.popcap.com/promos/pegglewow. This all-new World of Warcraft-themed Peggle mash-up is a stand-alone version of Peggle, available for free and combining the sights, sounds and storyline of World of Warcraft with the rainbows and unicorns of your favourite peg-popping pastime."

"With the iPhone quickly becoming a gaming juggernaut, there's a lot of demand for quality software to help balance out the shaking baby, flashlight and fart apps that get released on a minute-to-minute basis. PopCap is working to stem the tide, and tomorrow will see the much-anticipated release of Peggle for the iPhone. At 5 bucks, it's basically a mandatory purchase for those who enjoy freedom, puppies and tax refunds."
This week, The Bender is a superb episode (a change from the normal, har har). We talk Fallout 3, user created content compensation, piracy, cosplay, we got it all. Get the mp3 right here. Or grab on iTunes right here.
A new trailer for Peggle DS has been released, the trailer shows how it makes use of the DS. If any of you is a fan of the original on the PC then you'll definitely want to buy it for your DS after viewing this trailer, i know i definitely want to.
Russ Frushtick and Chris Plante delivers a debateable list of the games that offer infinite replay - the most value for your gaming dollar. Personally, I feel there are some glaring omissions including grind-heavy and replay friendly titles like Disgaea 3, Pixeljunk's Eden and Monsters, SPORE, NEVERWINTER NIGHTS 2 (because of the ugc adventure packs) *stern look thrown Plante's way* and Way of the Samurai 3 (though I'm the only one in the office with the import and can hiragana/katakana and s...
