A little later than planned but we got there in the end. After a lot of deciding, the domain name Gamergeddon.com was chosen so please update your bookmarks. The name change gives the site a better image and is catchier than Emuholic’s Game Blog which is no longer correct, as there are now additional staff working on this site. I started off this site last year as a small blog to write occasional game reviews but it had quickly changed into something more than that.

Over the coming weeks there will be some changes as we expand the site to cover XBLA games and in the future, retail games. But Indie Game fans do not worry, we will always cover indie games on the site, I am so Indie I liked the River Thames before it was main stream ;) Some things are still up in the air but everything will be considered with the visitors in mind.

Thanks for visiting and supporting the site and I hope you continue to do so! Also can I take the opportunity to thank staff members Bryan and Iggypu for their great work on the site since joining and also to Donskeeto, Trez and Matt for behind the scenes stuff.

This weeks XBLA release, the second in the Block/House Party promotion, is Scrap Metal. Drift around corners with guns blazing and take out legendary competitors in this fast-paced, top-down racing game. Fight your way through explosive, action-packed missions and defeat cunning bosses to add their vehicles to your garage. Customize your newly-acquired cars and then return to the track to blast through more enemies. Jump online with Xbox LIVE to race against your friends and crush their cars with the wheels of your monster truck in pulse-pounding online multiplayer matches.

Scrap Metal costs 1200 :MSPoints: and you can find the demo and full versions on the Marketplace. Have you played the demo yet or purchased the full game? Let us know what you think about the game in the comments.

Welcome to the latest Indie Game round up of releases and updates. Some nice releases in this round up, in particular Zombie Armageddon which surprised me a lot. Also I should have some news on the domain name in the next day or two, just waiting for the name servers to update.

If you follow me on Twitter or have spotted the site tagline you will have noticed we will have a new domain name soon. I will announce the domain name on Sunday night once the DNS has updated. The new domain is quite catchy and I hope you will like it as everyone that I have mentioned it to did. Now onto the round up of indie game news from the past few days.

Two new demos are now available to download on the Marketplace.  Prepare yourself for some extreme chaos creation in this non-stop adrenalin-fuelled demo of Just Cause 2. Whether freefalling from thousands of feet, hijacking enemy fighters in mid-air or simply blasting your way through military compounds on the ground, as agent Rico Rodriguez you’re guaranteed to leave your mark on the tropical island of Panau. With literally hundreds of weapons, vehicles and collectables to discover and near unlimited possibilities for creative fun, you’ll soon find this vast playground is only a tiny portion of what the full game has to offer. Grab a parachute and ready your grapple… it’s time to cause some chaos! The demo can be found on the Marketplace.
