MTV's main draw back in the day was music. Today, not so much. The station is now known for its outrageously toxic reality shows and award ceremonies where Twilight wins everything. But, we'll have to forgive them just this once. The Xbox 360 made its public debut on the channel back in 2005. It was showcased in a special presentation called The Next Generation Revealed. The event was hosted by Elijah Wood and covered the design, features and footage from some games. A live musical performance by the Killers and a special project from the guys at West Coast Customs (remember them?) were also featured on the program. The console wasn't available until November 2005 but the coverage by MTV helped boost the hype. Or it may have killed the radio star.

Cowboys, the Legends and Killers DLC pack is coming! If you've been enjoying tying people to train tracks and popping off during the standoffs in Red Dead Redemption for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the additional content to that game-play experience is on its way. Fans of the original title Red Dead Revolver (for Xbox and relevant web site PlayStation 2) will be pleased to know that 8 Red Dead Revolver characters are making their return to the Red Dead universe, along with 9 new multi-player m

Not to be outdone by Microsoft, Sony made their huge announcement only four days after the Xbox 360 was revealed. It all went down at E3 2005 when Sony announced plans for their latest system, the PlayStation 3. During the conference, the console was shown with a boomerang controller which was later modified. There was no actual gameplay footage of its titles but pre-rendered videos of Final Fantasy VII and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots. The prototype of the system was priced between $500 and $600 USD. More information and demos were revealed months later at the Tokyo Game Show. PlayStation 3 didn't launch for another year, but when it did, every single gamer automatically picked sides between the seventh generation console war.

Interestingly, Red Dead Online launched roughly seven months after Red Dead Redemption 2 proper, and had a lot of initial issues. While some of those were addressed and the online portion caught on, it was quietly phased out in 2022 for...you guessed it...more focus on Grand Theft Auto 6 . Wer're not quite sure what Rockstar has planned for the next iteration of GTA Online , but extra time could help set that up for succe

President Karl Slatoff also mentioned that Red Dead Redemption 2 will have an "all-new online experience," but declined to provide more information about it. The wording seems to indicate that the online feature of the game will be in some way different from Grand Theft Auto Online, but at the moment we have no idea

A man of many talents, Walter Day was born to be part of the entertainment industry. He is a game designer and historian, but is better known for creating Twin Galaxies-- the world leader in video game records. After reading an article on games in 1982, Walter was then inspired to form a date base of the world's leading arcade scores. This led him to becoming an official referee and scorekeeper for video games. He has appeared in documentaries and at various gaming competitions. Walter has contributed to the Guinness Book of World Records, helped with the founding of the International Video Game Hall of Fame and attended a special video game exhibition at the Smithsonian art museum. Walter has since moved on to focus on his music career but he still remains an iconic member of the industry.

"Rockstar Games has employed some creative techniques in cross-promotion. I think they're pretty exciting. Social Club has an awful lot of members and they're avid fans not just of Grand Theft Auto, not just of Red Dead Redemption, but also fans of Rockstar Games. I think it's great that there is some cross-promotion going

I would just note, you don't need to look back too many years when Holiday seasons were just inundated. People basically released products in the Holiday season and this company performed well. So it all comes down to quali

While Red Dead Redemption 2 was a highlight of 2018's impressive video game legacy, Red Dead Online seems to have fallen under its own weight. The first big update promised to fix some of the many gripes gamers were experiencing, but instead, developers have simply added more problems. Just three months after the highly anticipated online version launched, it seems like it's pistols at dawn between players and Rockstar Ga

The push to microtransactions could have something to do with recent reports that Red Dead Online is hemorrhaging money month after month. Whether it's the period setting with lack of exciting weaponry and vehicles or extended wait between updates that's putting gamers off, there's something clearly wrong with Red Dead Online . Another huge problem is the wait fans have experienced to even get to this update. Even in beta, three months is a long time to wait for fixes. Sadly, it could be a case of too little, too late for **Red Dead Online
