Video Thirst: Archie the game is really something

The Archie comics. Who hasn’t read at least a couple of them? I read them while I'm working, and you read them while wandering the mall, we all read them. Well recently fXLabs of Hyderabad announced that they are releasing an Archie videogame for the PC, and eventually consoles.

The game play will last about 12-14 hours and will encompass you controlling people of Riverdale and doing missions. You can drive and walk, and the entire game will have Archie themed music. I can’t wait for this this one, especially to see who they chose to play as each person. I'm hoping that this sounds as awesome to you as it does to me.

Granted, the song they chose for the commercial is still pretty weird.

Quench your thirst.

Halo 3: ODST has Generated over $125 million in sales

You'd think after becoming the third fastest selling game on the Xbox 360, Halo 3: ODST would slow its pace, well according to some reports, not only is the game still to this day flying off store shelves, it's proving to be a cash cow for Microsoft and Bungie. The game thus far has generated over $125 million in sales and it hasn't been out for a month, giving even more evidence why the Halo franchise is a force is be reckoned with.

USA today is also reporting that comics, books, videos, and action figures are planned for the next six years adding more value to Microsoft's killer app. And according to Frank O'Connor "eventually it will become very apparent that their is a plan for the way the canon all ties together and the way the comic books and the novels all tie together," he said.
