Every week, I take a look at a different Indie game. From Freeware and Home-brew, XBLA/PSN/WiiWare titles, PC games and Xbox Indie titles, anything goes. If it's by an Independent developer, I'll be covering it. This is Independency.
This week we take a peek at Crazy Wizard starring in Creepy Castle from Xbox Live Indie Games.
If you want a Kinect this November, you might want to start saving up now! Microsoft has officially announced what we have known for the past month of so thanks to Amazon and Gamestop: Kinect will retail for $150 USD. It will have Kinect Adventures bundled with it, and the other Kinect games will be $49.99 USD. Microsoft also announced a Xbox 360 bundled with Kinect.
Trials HD, one of last year's best games, is going to be getting even better a bit later this year with the release of some new DLC. The Big Thrills pack is going to be bringing forty new maps by the brains behind the game, and it will also be bringing ten contest winning user-created maps. Yes, the new DLC will bring with it a total of fifty maps, as well as new achievements worth 50 gamerpoints. Big Thrills will be available in Q4, and it looks like it will be well worth it!

Welcome to James Bond day here at DigitalSomething! Along with the new trailer and screens for GoldenEye 007, Activision has announced a new James Bond game for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Nintendo DS. James Bond 007: Blood Stone will be a third-person action game with an original story. Also announced was the new Bond girl for the game: Grammy Award winning singer Joss Stone. The game will also feature 16 player online action, inclusind a spies versus mercs mode. The trailer and full announcement can be found after the jump.
I have to say, this does look like it will be entertaining, especially with the eight player online multiplayer. I also like the fact that they kept split-screen multiplayer to help give it that nostalgic flavor. It also helps that this is on the Wii, so the graphics don't need to be all super polished, which also adds to that nostalgic factor.
