Hello from Richmond.
Will Agent Locke survive his brush with death? Will a new breed of aliens who use technology to hunt down its victims claim more UNSC soldiers and their brethren? Will Agent Locke actually be clearly visible in most shots? Fans of Halo rejoice, for tonight you may dine on the finest of popcorn, snuggle up with your Xbox One controller and stream the final episode of Halo: Nightfall.
Tonight on Xbox Live: The final episode of ‘Halo: Nightfall’
There are plenty of places to purchase Microsoft's Xbox One console this holiday season, but only one retailer is giving Xbox One buyers a free game: the Microsoft Store.
It's a good day for anyone who has an appreciation for quality, lengthy programming or at least like having even more movies and television shows at their disposal after the launch of HBO Go for the Xbox One roughly a. month ago. Showtime Anytime, is now available on the Xbox One.
The history of Microsoft’s efforts in actual hardware reads like a rags to riches story. Obviously, what happened with the Zune portable media players represents the rags. Zunes were amazing, but in some ways they completely missed the mark. Certainly, they arrived way too late. The Surface Pro 3 is full of promise, arrived early enough in the 2-in-1 craze to be viable and is considered in some circles to be one of the best Windows machines on the market. If you believe Microsoft’s television ads, there is the MacBook Air and the Surface Pro 3. Nothing else.
Microsoft is heavily discounting digital copies of Plants Vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and more as part of its Xbox Live Deal With Gold promotion for December 9th.

Have an Xbox console and a stable connection to Xbox Live? You could dive back into Halo: The Master Chief Collection and finally move past the trauma its harder levels have left you coping with. You could also grab some popcorn, pick up your controller and catch tonight's Falcons vs. Packers game.
Never has there been anything more painful than spending hours downloading or ripping a movie to your Windows PC, getting on a flight, then noticing that your movie won't play because Windows 8 doesn't have native support for MKV files. If you're like us, you've already downloaded VLC Media Player. If you haven't and you're running Microsoft's Windows 8 operating system, don't. Today the company added support for MKV support to Xbox Video.
My road to living room gaming was not paved with the sweet smell of fresh ink wafting from a classic copy of Nintendo Power or Game Informer. Even after I picked up an original Xbox, then the Xbox 360 a few years later, I had no wish to read a gaming magazine. I had no regular interactions with the gaming community in general. One thing I did do every year was settle in front of a television set each December to watch the Video Game Awards.
What does it take for you to be afraid of the world you live in? Maybe you have no appreciation for gore? Maybe the most frightening thing you’ve ever seen involves a chainsaw and unsuspecting teenagers who thought it’d be a good idea to spend a reckless weekend at an isolated cabin a few miles away from a prison. Black Mirror, a program that premiered on television a few years ago, has finally arrived on Netflix and if garbage ghost stories are the most frightening thing you’ve experienced, you haven’t seen scary yet.
Have an Xbox 360, Xbox One, smartphone with a YouTube app or anything else in between with a web browser? Great, you'll be able to watch the Game Awards 2014 show.
