A few more downloads hit the Marketplace today in the form of a "New Kameo Demo and Downloads Trailer" and a NBA 2K6 Picture Pack. The new Kameo: Elements of Power trailer showcases the new demo that became available last month and the downloadable skin packs for the game characters. The NBA 2K6 Picture Pack cost 80 Microsoft points and should please NBA fans a lot more than the themes that just came out yesterday. Both Games came out at the 360's launch and are still getting downloadable content in some form or another. So go ahead and give them a download if you want to see some more footage of Kameo or want a NBA team as your gamer picture.

If you have downloaded the update for NBA 2K6 for the Xbox 360, chances are you've been generously awarded with crib points for feats that you have not even accomplished (ex. players being awarded 50 crib points for scoring 100 points in the game). 

While some gamers continue to endure the annoying crib point-awarding frenzy, some have found a way to get rid of it by playing with no downloaded rosters. It seemed to work for some, but still, it's just a temporary fix.

This has been going on for weeks now and there's still no proper fix. We hope that 2K Sport's silence is an indication that they are working on fixing the bug. Sure, we want all those crib points, but we want to get them 'cause we deserve them, not because the bug decides we should get them.

Want to play ball with Houston rapper Chamillionaire?

Then take the challenge as the MC takes part in the latest installment of Xbox Live's "Game With Fame" playing NBA 2K6.

"This is a great way for the fans to get to know the real me and learn about what I have planned for the rest of 2006," the rapper said. "It seems that everyone is playing Xbox Live these days and I can't wait to see who wants to take on 'The Truth from Houston'."

Interested in a chance to challenge Chamillionaire in NBA 2K6? Look for the gamertag "ChamGWF" from 3 pm to 5 pm Eastern time (12 pm to 2 pm Pacific) on Tuesday, April 18.

Xbox360logo2Not sure what game to buy next? Matt Slagle from the Associated Press has played 15 of the 18 Xbox 360 launch titles and ranked them from best to worst. Though I haven’t played all the games, I still wouldn’t agree with all of his ratings, but hey, some of his impressions are right on par.

1) Call of Duty 2
2) Condemned: Criminal Origins
3) Kameo: Elements of Power
4) Perfect Dark Zero
5) Project Gotham Racing 3
6) Peter Jackson's King Kong: The Official Game of the Movie
7) NBA 2K6
8) Madden NFL 06
9) Quake 4
10) Amped 3
11) Tony Hawk's American Wasteland
12) NHL 2K6

2K Sports, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. today announced that NBA 2K6 for Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft has shipped to North American retailers. This groundbreaking title will incorporate next generation visuals and the most complete set of features of any Xbox 360 basketball title.

This includes The Association (franchise mode), The Shot Stick, The V.I.P. System, The Crib, 24/7: Road to the Entertainers Basketball Classic, Dual Player Control, the Strip 'n' Rip System the most current player transactions and more. These features, coupled with unparalleled gameplay, have propelled NBA 2K6 to be the #1 rated NBA title.

New features available exclusively on NBA 2K6 for Xbox 360 include:

  • Realistic player models - NBA 2K6 brings NBA player models to life like never before with a new graphic technology based on a virtual human skeleton. Muscles and skin are layered and wrapped around the skeleton, giving each player model a realistic look and movement. This technology allows for new animations, muscle driven body movement, ultra high-resolution detail, player sweat technology and realistic player head-and-eye tracking.
  • Cloth simulation - A completely physics-based cloth simulation engine delivers the most remarkable lifelike cloth movement on each player's shorts and jerseys.
  • Broadcast style - NBA 2K6 is presented in a dramatic new broadcast style with dynamic camera work, new camera perspectives that are closer to the action, and depth of field effects.
  • High dynamic range lighting - A new lighting technique that simulates the reflective nature of objects. For instance, an equally lit polished parquet floor will reflect more light than a player's jersey. With high dynamic range lighting, each item will reflect and absorb the correct level of light as it would in real life.
  • 60 frames per second - NBA 2K6 for Xbox 360 runs at standard-setting 60 frames per second, allowing for the most responsive feel and gameplay control.
  • Authentic arena lighting - The NBA 2K6 development team took samples from actual NBA basketball arenas to recreate extraordinarily detailed and lifelike in-stadium atmospheres filled with over 10,000 individual crowd models.
