Win a copy of Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition!

By Ryan Fleming April 20, 2012

We meet again, possible contest winners. Over the last few weeks, we have been giving away games for various systems, and we have no intention of stopping. We’re mad with the giving spirit! MAD! Next week, we may give away all the furniture in the CEOs office! (Just kidding, please don’t fire us.)

Thus far we have given away Nintendo 3DS and PS3 games, so it’s time to look at the Xbox 360. And what game better defines the Xbox than Halo?

Last November, Microsoft celebrated the 10th anniversary of the release of Halo: Combat Evolved for the original Xbox by remastering the game and re-releasing it. The Anniversary Edition featured the original game with shiny new HD graphics (in 3D as well), online co-op play, and a whole bunch of new multiplayer options. It was once of the best games on the original Xbox, and the Anniversary Edition reminded us all why. You can read our full review here.

So here’s how you can enter for a chance to win: simply post as a comment below and let us knowwho your favorite developer/publisher is and why. Last week we asked what games you would like us to cover more, and this week we want to know who your favorite developer/publishers are for the same reason. Let us know what developers/publisher you want us to feature more often, and we will.

So that’s it. Post a comment below for a chance to win a copy of Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition for the Xbox 360. Contest ends on Friday. This contest is not limited to the US, but while the game should be region free, we cannot guarantee it.

Good luck to all!

How to start the Automatron DLC in Fallout 4

A man and a robot walking in the wastelands in Fallout 4.

Each piece of Fallout 4 DLC adds something substantial to the base experience. In the case of the Automatron expansion, an entire new questline pitting you against a robot army led by a figure known as the Mechanist. Starting it isn't as difficult as starting other DLCs like the Nuka-World expansion, but it-s still a bit cryptic. Buying the DLC doesn't automatically make it apparent how to actually start this new adventure, but we'll give you specific directions to find it in the wasteland.

One of 2023’s best indie games is getting a movie starring LaKeith Stanfield

El Paso, Elsewhere, one of Digital Trends' favorite indie games of 2023, now has a film adaptation in the works.

Variety reports that LaKeith Stanfield -- an actor known for his work in films like Judas and the Black Messiah, Knives Out, and Haunted Mansion, as well as TV shows like Atlanta -- is going to star in and produce the film. The adaptation is in the works at Di Bonaventure Pictures, the production company behind the Transformers, G.I. Joe, and The Meg film franchises. Little else is known about the film at this time, although we'd presume it will be a fairly direct adaptation of this intense story-driven game.

Get in on the action: Helldivers 2 for PC is 15% off for a limited time

If you are a fan of Starship Troopers the movie, you'll really love Helldivers 2. It takes that hyper-militarized world and the excellent satire and completely immerses you in it, providing for a thrilling and absolutely hilarious experience overall. It's also been a massive hit, and it often has well over 100,000 concurrent players at any given moment, even though it's a couple of months past its launch date. As such, if you want to dive into the fun, then you can grab the game for much for 15% off at CDKeys, which brings it down to $34 from $40.

Why you should buy Helldivers 2
Helldivers 2 is a big upgrade on the previous game, taking you to a fully 3D world to bring Managed Democracy to the rest of space. That primarily means that you get to either fight bots or bugs, with some actually great gameplay differences, and Arrowhead, the studio that made the game, even creates major orders that the whole player base is supposed to work towards. As a player, though, you can group up with three more people and dive into the hell of future space combat against alien species. You get tons of weapons and armor to pick from and even orbital stratagems that you can call down from your destroyer spaceship, which are very cool.
