Thumb - Image 1 War is hell, but hell can be pretty enjoyable when it's done right in video games. This month in The Budget Bin Reviews, we revisit one of the first, and still one of the better FPS titles in this generation of gaming. It's Activision's Call of Duty 3 for the Microsoft Xbox 360.

CoD4 - Image 1Activision and Infinity Ward have finally released Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare to the market and we gave the Sony PlayStation 3, Microsoft Xbox 360 and PC versions a quick run-through. From what we've seen, it's safe to say that all of them were equally mind-blowing. If you were skeptical about the merits of bringing the Call of Duty franchise to the new millennium, you'll be amazed at what you'll find here. A late contender for Game of the Year? It may very well be!

QJ First Impressions: WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008 (Xbox 360) - Image 1


As promised, the demo for the Xbox 360 version of WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 went live today over at Xbox Live Marketplace. Being the wrestling junkies that we are, we immediately downloaded the 1.62GB file and brought out our pen and paper to note down our first impressions on the game.

At this point, we have to say that 2008 is going to be a pivotal point in the WWE series of video game titles. First, this marks the first time that the game will be released on almost all platforms. Aside from the Xbox 360 build, THQ will also be releasing WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008 on the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Nintendo Wii, and DS.

Taking off from where its predecessor WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2007 left, this year's iteration in the long-running wrestling video game franchise does bring a lot of new stuff to the table and at the same time preserving the features that made the title endearing and enduring all these years.

After launching the demo, we immediately felt a sudden rush of wrestling euphoria swell inside us as we heard Triple H's theme song playing in the background. We noticed that this year's build loads a lot faster when compared to last year's, which is actually a very welcome development.

Headplay with the Xbox 360 - Image 1


With the release of Halo 3 we thought it was the perfect time to review our Headplay device on the Xbox 360. Our first review of Headplay covered the basics of the device: what it is and what it does. Now it's time to see how it holds up to par with the consoles, starting with the Xbox 360.

Although it's not the ultimate visual display, there are obvious advantages to playing the Xbox 360 with the TV directly attached to your head. With Headplay, the difference is like playing on a hi-def 62-inch flat screen TV versus playing on a projected image on a movie screen. It's not exactly better, but it has its own charms.

Check out the rest of the review in the full article!

QJ.NET's Halo 3 multiplayer review - Image 1


Taking off from our initial review, the QJ.NET team presents the second part of our special review of Bungie's Halo 3. As we promised everyone, we'll be taking a deeper look into the details of the multiplayer aspect of the game. Also, we'll be covering the other features the game has thrown into the mix, namely the film replay mode and the file sharing.

Local Multiplayer

Multiplayer madness in Bungie Studio's Halo 3 for the Xbox 360 - Image 1 Amidst the Xbox 360's step up for the series, we still have to remember that Halo 3 is still essentially a shooter game. And one of the best ways to enjoy to enjoy a shooter is through good old fashioned head-to-head deathmatch.

Being the gung-ho FPS fans that we are, we took the quickest way to get right into the middle of the action - and that was through a nice one-on-one firefight with our fellow QJ.NET teammates.
