Xbox 360 classic range bolstered by new titles plus Madagascar Kartz Wii screens



Microsoft today announced a new starting price for Xbox 360 Classics in Europe, and three new blockbuster titles for the range. From today Grand Theft Auto IV, Midnight Club Los Angeles: Complete Edition and BioShock will join the best selection of Xbox 360 games in the Classics range. A selection of titles, including Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Naruto: Rise of a Ninja will now cost just 14.99 GBP.

Grand Theft Auto IV is the highest rated game of the decade, the fastest-selling entertainment product of all time and the winner of countless awards. Set in Liberty City, the game tells the epic tale of newly arrived immigrant Niko Bellic, as he attempts to escape his dark and murky past in the ultimate land of opportunity. Also available for this title is the highest rated downloadable content on Xbox 360 - The Lost and Damned and coming soon, The Ballad of Gay Tony.

Midnight Club Los Angeles: Complete Edition The originator of open world street racing is back and bigger than ever. The updated edition includes the iconic South Central area plus new vehicles, aftermarket parts, music and races.

BioShock is the "genetically enhanced" first person shooter that lets you do things never before possible in the genre: turn everything into a weapon, biologically mod your body with plasmids, hack devices and systems, upgrade your weapons and craft new ammo variants, and experiment with different combat techniques.

In addition to these new entrants, Xbox 360 Classics already includes some of the most popular Xbox 360 games including Halo 3, Gears of War and Forza Motorsport 2. If only all games were 15 GBP we'd never leave home again!

To round off a busy news week we've got some brand new screens from Madagascar Kartz forthcoming on Wii courtesy of Activision. The game is a karting title - an arcade racer complete with crazy jumps and wacky power-ups and featuring the cast of the hit animated series Madagascar. The game is scheduled for release on November 6 for Wii, PS3, Xbox 360 and DS.
