So, its been a busy week over at Microsoft. The first thing you can’t avoid noticing this week is they have pushed out a console update over live. Its not as attractive as the last big overhaul they did, instead its just an update to add wireless guitar drivers for upcoming games. In addition to the announced price drops in the States and in Canada, they stealthily added HDMI to all premium consoles. This will become standard as current inventory moves off the shelves. Microsoft didn’t even confirm it until AFTER someone had bought one in a Target in Atlanta. Maybe they want to keep it quiet as HDMI was a major elite selling point.

Microsoft wasn’t the only ones busy on the 360 front recently. Someone has rigged a wiimote to work with the 360. It looks like it is working pretty damn good, check the video out after the jump. Someone else has put together a sweet 300 case mod for the 360. I’d rather have that than the Halo 3 360.

On the gaming side, Track and Field Arcade was released today. I’m heading over to check it out right after this post, need to find a controller with a turbo button first. John Woo’s StrangleHold demo snuck out onto the marketplace last night. Sierra also announced their upcoming game Timeshift will be released on Oct 30th.

Rumor has it KidRiot picked up a 360, so the Hostile 360 Crew continues to grow.
