Finally, after a long wait, Marble Blast Ultra has been released to the Xbox Live Arcade. So far it looks like everyone has good things to say about it. I am definitely going to go buy it for the 800 points. It looks so polished for being a game that costs so little. Great job by all the folks at GarageGames for creating this and finally getting it certified.

Final Fantasy XI
I just got the newest issue of the official Xbox Magazine. Inside this issue is a full beta for Final Fantasy XI. It took me a couple hours to install, setup, and patch but it looks interesting so far. I’m sure I will play it a little bit for the 2 months that the beta is free. After that though, I doubt I will pay monthy for it. I have never played a MMORPG before so I still don’t really know what I am suppose to be doing or where to go. . I guess I’m just a big noob.
New Xbox 360 Hack
For those of us who can’t seem to find the Removable Hard drive anywhere.
