The U.S. Army is sponsoring yet another Halo 3 Play & Win Sweepstakes. The Heavy Weapons Training begins now and with it we have been given a Heavy Weapons dashboard theme, some gamerpics and Halo 3 Heavy Weapons training videos all free on Xbox LIVE Marketplace.
There are two ways to register for the sweepstakes. First, you can visit this registration page on Xbox.com. Second, you can download a free Halo 3 gamerpic from Xbox LIVE Marketplace, which will automatically register you for the sweepstakes.
Once you have registered, entering the sweepstakes is easy. Simply play Halo 3 multiplayer on Xbox LIVE between February 9th and February 15th. Each day you play will snag you another entry.
Prizes include a bunch of Microsoft Points and one Grand Prize winner will receive a Limited Edition, framed piece of Halo 3 Artwork (left).

Yeah, it took a minute to come up with that clever title. Well worth the time.
A Turok demo has finally landed on the North America Xbox LIVE today. The demo was previously available in pretty much every locale around the globe but ours. Now we know how the rest of the world feels most of the time.
This week’s Xbox Live Arcade releases have been revealed by Major Nelson. Come Wednesday morning, we will be graced with Rez HD and Chressmaster LIVE for 800 points each.
Adam Sessler of G4 has chimed in regarding the Fox “News”/Mass Effect fiasco. This guy knows how to rant and it’s awesome! And yes, I will continue to put “news” in quotes whenever I mention Fox.
Update: YouTube has pulled the video citing copyright claim by G4. I will be sure to put the video back up, should I find another copy somewhere.
Update #2: Thanks to Stephen Przybylowski from G4TV, we now have the video once again.

This week, we’re going to try having XOD Game Night on a Thursday. I’ve had some people request the day be changed, so I thought we’d see how the turnout is. Be sure to vote in our poll which can be found in the sidebar. We’re going back to Halo 3 this week, as it’s a game that many people have. You can start talking trash in the forums.
