Technical issues plagued the broadcast.
UFC 141 was supposed to be the first major broadcast of the new UFC on Xbox app that was released last month. Microsoft, as a promotion, gave away 30,000 coupons so people could watch it for free. However, the event was plagued by technical issues and sporadic broadcasts.

The downloadable title wasn't included as promised.
Electronic Arts is being sued after not providing copies of the downloadable title Battlefield 1943 with PlayStation 3 retail copies of the new Battlefield 3, as originally promised. EA first said that the PS3 version of the latest in the Battlefield series would come with a free copy of the 2009 release Battlefield 1943, but later stated this would not be the case.
You can have fun with Yoshi’s Story, if you’re willing to find it.
Oh, Yoshi. You’re just so cute. You have got to be the cutest dinosaur (or whatever you are) I’ve ever seen. How Nintendo had the means to fabricate such an enduring and appealing character we’ll never know. After his introduction in Super Mario World, Yoshi became Nintendo’s newest star. A sweet dinosaur that could swallow enemies and turn them into eggs for him to shoot was quite an imaginative concept. Add Yoshi’s elongated tongue which he can pull enemies with, and a saddle so Mario could ride comfortably on his back and you’ve got a favorite as well as powerful character that was more than just a lovable mascot. After a couple of throwaway games for the NES and SNES, in 1995, Nintendo decided to make Yoshi the star of his own game and released Super Mario World 2: Yoshi’s Island. The game was a success and highly praised, proving that Yoshi could be strong enough on his own. At least, it seemed that way.
You read that right, the next game in the Saints Row series has been confirmed less than a week before the release of The Third.
Next week sees the release of Saints Row: The Third, the crazy sandbox organized crime game that filled in the void left by Grand Theft Auto when Rockstar decided to go in a more mature and socially relevant route with GTA IV. It’s no surprise that the series has done well and THQ and the crew expects that this will be the biggest Saints Row yet. They have so much faith, in fact, that THQ’s own Danny Bilson has revealed that a fourth entry in the series is already in the works.
Join us for a special dual audio and written review on Nintendo's timeless classic!

Called Exterminatus, Space Marine's huge DLC installment won't cost you anything.
Space Marine was released last month without any form of cooperative play available. It may have seemed like an oversight at the time, but THQ promised that it would be adding it shortly after launched. Today they keep their promise and it won’t cost you a dime.
When you say Disney Universe, Pirates of the Caribbean, WALL-E, Monsters Inc, and Alice aren’t the first things that come to mind.
At face value, you might think Disney is crazy for releasing their four player co-operative title, Disney Universe, just one week after Ratchet & Clank: All 4 One. The thing is, Disney Universe is actually the better of the two games. While both suffer from a lackluster co-operative play, the core gameplay of Disney Universe is more layered in its design, giving players more than endless enemies to grind through.
Our review copy is in, come get an idea of what the latest title from Disney is all about.
It's a beautiful thing when review copies arrive early. Unfortunately, for Disney Universe we are embargoed from releasing our review any earlier than its release day, Tuesday, October 25. However, I can talk a little bit about the game in the meantime.
