Crackle Goes Live…Xbox Live, That Is!

Popular movie and TV show streaming service Crackle has joined the growing ranks of streaming video and music apps available on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 console. Following the December release of Xbox 360′s new “Metro” dashboard, a steadily growing library of streaming apps have become available for download. Crackle is the latest in the Video section of these apps. Crackle for Xbox 360 promises a healthy library of content for users to stream to their consoles for free.

Well…that’s the theory anyway. This article was supposed to be my impressions of the new service, but it seems their servers are swamped. Check back for the full review once the service is actually available!

Nintendo Network Promises Wii U and 3DS Unified Online Service

It’s been a (god)damn long time coming, but Nintendo has finally decided to join the rest of us in the 21st century tradition of having an online gaming network with actual, individualized user accounts. I know, scary, right? In their (apparently traumatic) conference call outlining the company’s (lack of) earnings in Fiscal Year 2011, company president Satoru Iwata revealed the first details of the Nintendo Network, elements of which are now enabled in the company’s 3DS portable system, with additional capabilities slated to come online at some future date. Among the more interesting details are some familiar (just not to Nintendo) features. Click on past the break to find out what they are!

The games media is on fire with a new rumor: that during this year’s E3, one of gaming’s major players will bow out of the future hardware race. If true, it’ll be the biggest shake up in the games industry since Sega famously called uncle in 2001, after the market failure of its Dreamcast console.

But the big question left unanswered is: who will it be?
