Just discovered these awesome games by one of my favourite brands X-Large, staying true to their Americana influences they have created X-Baseball and X-Sk8er, both are wicked fun, did I mention they are free on iTunes!

- T, checkout the demos

- T, Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, the last one ruined my entire summer this is gonna destroy the coming one!

I posted previously about the Nike Chosen campaign, these are the behind the scene of the making of those incredible commercials. Check them out, I personally think this if one of the best looking campaigns I have seen in a while.

- T, Skate and Surf clip beyond the flip!

EA’s teams up with Strike Force to present its very first MMA game however lets be frank here UFC is the best MMA league by far and their game is fucking fantastic. EA’s Fight Night is one of the best games ever created if they can bring the same magic and excitement to MMA it would kick ass however the Strike Force line up is fucking weak sauce!

Here’s hoping the gameplay and graphics over shadows the lame line up of fighters.

This October 2k Sports is about to unleash what looks like the first proper new gen basketball video game. 2k7 in my books is still the best NBA game I’ve played but 2K10 looks crazy! I can’t wait! EA’s NBA 10 is a piece of shit, honestly its gets dumbed down every year, EA is like the NFS of the basketball world, were as 2k10 is the Gran Turismo!

If you own a Playstation 3 you must buy this game, there is nothing more to be said about this game but its like everything Tomb Raider should have been, i.e. Fun and not tedious search for random shit.

Some images have surfaced from the Xbox 360′s Forza series that reveal the game will feature Australia’s own V8 Supercars. Whilst Forzza team still seem to be unable to model headlights and tail lights with any realistic look, it’s still awesome.

We haven’t had the chance to drive these buggers since the old TOCA/V8 Supercar Driver games from years ago and they didn’t look near as good as these. Hopefully the sounds are on-point as well, and that they bother to include all of the field and not just a select few teams.

Whether this enough of an incentive for me to draw me out of the Playstation corner remains to be seen… Whilst this is cool, it’s no Gran Turismo 5.

Hit the jump for a few more images.
