(The Wii joke will never get old :P )

The Queen Mother has been caught red handed playing on Prince William’s Wii. Having received the console for Christmas from his girlfriend Kate Middleton, Prince William has been enjoying the system ever since.

During one of his games, the Queen joined in on the fun, apparently proving to be a natural at many of the games that game with the console :)

 Apparently Bungie is going to separate itself from Microsof, which may prove to have a great affect on the games industry, although it may also have a negative affect on the games Bungie will create.

The Pro of this occuring is that Bungie will probably expand the amount of platforms its games will be available on; instead of just being on Xbox and PC we could see a motion controlled Halo on the Wii! (Not going to happen, but its a good example :P ).

The Con of Bungie and Microsoft splitting is that Bungie will be losing a great amount of marketing and financial backing as Microsoft is one of the larger Game Publishers that are still in existance (Electronic Arts being another).

I will add more information on this as I get it :)

Did you play the original Nintendo 64 Goldeneye? Got Half Life 2? Then you should look into this project.

Goldeneye Source is basically a mod for HL2 that has remade all the original N64 levels in the beautiful Source graphics engine. For those who want to play it, the official website is here, while the beta download is on the forum here (You need to register to see it)

Here are a few screenshots:
