			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Microsoft continues to add to its &#8220;Games on Demand&#8221; digital download service today with the addition of the award winning underwater FPS BioShock and the epic strategy game Sid Meier&#8217;s Civilization Revolution.</p>
<p>Both titles will set you back $29.99 and about 5GB of hard drive space, but if you&#8217;re sporting a brand new <a title="$299 120GB Elite Xbox 360" href="http://blastmagazine.com/the-magazine/gaming/gaming-news/2009/08/microsoft-cuts-price-of-elite-360-model-phases-out-pro/" target="_blank">$299 120GB Elite Xbox 360</a> model, you&#8217;ll have no problem fitting them.</p>
<p>With the addition of these two titles, the &#8220;Games on Demand&#8221; section has some exciting titles among its ranks including Assassin&#8217;s Creed, LEGO Star Wars: TCS, Kameo, Battlefield: Bad Company, Mass Effect, Burnout Paradise, The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, Need For Speed Pro Street and Carbon, and many more.</p>
<p><a title="BioShock, Civilization Revolution added to Games on Demand" href="http://www.majornelson.com/archive/2009/09/08/xbox-360-games-on-demand-civilization-revolut-n-bioshock-and-more.aspx" target="_blank">BioShock, Civilization Revolution added to Games on Demand</a></p>
<p>The full-on digital revolution is undoubtedly upon us. Anyone caved yet? Or do you still support brick and mortar retail outlets like Best Buy, GameStop and the like?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Threadless, purveyor of alternative clothing, today put the &#8220;Dead Sucker&#8221; Bioshock themed shirt <a title="Dead Sucker shirt" href="http://www.threadless.com/product/911/Dead_Sucker" target="_blank">up for sale </a>on their popular online store for $18, but be warned&#8230; this shirt is f*ckin rad.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m a collector of video game tees and will maybe, just maybe add this bad boy to my collection, but for now, check out the screens of a tattooed bro, and an equally awkward lady sporting the thread.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Two of Xbox 360's greatest games together for one low price. Details inside.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bethesda Softworks and 2k Games today announced a partnership to bring two of the Xbox 360&#8217;s finest games, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Bioshock to retail next month on Xbox 360 and PC.</p>
<p>Beginning July 7 the two games will hit retail as one mega-awesome-must-have bundle priced at $39.99 for Xbox 360, and $29.99 for PC gamers.</p>
<p>Together, over 80 game of the year awards have gone out to both titles, and in case you haven&#8217;t played either, in July you can&#8217;t go wrong with this new M rated bundle.</p>
<p>Oblivion and Bioshock currently retail for $29.99 and $19.99 respectively on Xbox 360, so you won&#8217;t be saving a ton, but every little bit counts if you&#8217;re like me.</p>
<p>While we&#8217;re on the subject of great bundled gaming, you might want to consider The Orange Box from Valve. Games included are Half Life 2, Half Life 2: Episode 1 and 2, Team Fortress 2, and Portal. That&#8217;s five games for $19.99 brand new. Wow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="float:left;margin-right:5px;" src="/images/media/bioshockps3.jpg" alt="PSM3 says BioShock coming to to PS3" />Did you really think it wouldn’t happen?</p>
<p>This month&#8217;s edition of UK Magazine PSM3 drops what they are calling official confirmation that BioShock, last year&#8217;s critically and commercially acclaimed Xbox 360 blockbuster, will be heading to the PlayStation 3 by year&#8217;s end.</p>
<p>While neither Sony or 2K games has released any kind of information on the title going multi-platform, CVG – who publishes the magazine is standing by their cover story, promising multiple pages of exclusive previews and screenshots. Curiously, the cover-blurb hints at more content for the re-release, reading &#8220;Why Xbox&#8217;s best shooter is better on PS3.&#8221;</p>
<p>The new issue of PSM3 is scheduled to hit newsstands in the UK (along with select shops stateside) on June 4. Expect some kind of official word soon after.</p>
<p>A Sony Computer Entertainment America spokesman had no comment, calling the news rumor and speculation.</p>
<p><em>John Guilfoil of the Blast Magazine staff contributed to this report</em></p>
