<title>Microsoft to slash price of Xbox 360</title>
<link>http://playsquad.commongate.com/post/Microsoft_to_slash_price_of_Xbox_360</link>
<description><![CDATA[Microsoft said on Wednesday it plans to cut the U.S. prices of its Xbox 360 video game machine, lowering the price of its entry-level console to $50 below Nintendo's top-selling Wii.

The move makes the Xbox 360 the first game machine of this generation of consoles to sell for less than $200, a key mass-market price that Microsoft said historically has accounted for more than 75 percent of all machine sales.

The lower prices ahead of the crucial holiday shopping season--a period of time...]]></description>

<title>GTA IV Street Map Leaked</title>
<link>http://playsquad.commongate.com/post/GTA_IV_Street_Map_Leaked</link>
<description><![CDATA[A webshots user has uploaded six images of what look to be the map insert for the PlayStation 3 version of Grand Theft Auto IV. Images include the city itself, complete with descriptions of various locales, the Liberty City subway map, and the controller map for the PS3. It's about as New York as you can get without actually being in New York. Everything looks rather official, though I'm going to go ahead and rumor tag this pending some sort of official confirmation. It's not that we don't...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Nintendo announced that Mario Kart Wii will use a "Mario Kart Channel" that, like the Wii Fit Channel, stays accessible from the Wii Menu even when the disc is not in the drive. You can use this Channel to view and download ghost data of other players and race against them (presumably you'll need the disc for the racing parts).
