Not coming as a surprise to anyone, GTA IV has usurped the the number one spot on the weekly Xbox Live Activity charts from longtime champ, Call of Duty 4. Following CoD4 was everyone's other favorite FPS, Halo 3, Guitar Hero 3 and Gears of War.

Today Sega announced it will be be releasing a playable demo of Condemned 2: Bloodshot on Xbox Live tomorrow at 2am. The demo is pretty much the same as the PSN version, dropping the player in the middle of the first level, where they must battle their way through the back alleys of a city that has gone insane.

Breaking news! Incompetent parent's children see nude pictures on "X-box" live!
Last Thursday, a woman only known as Jennifer, reported that her two children had been exposed to nude pictures while playing a game on "X-box" Live. As any good parent would, Jennifer immediately turned off the system and phoned "X-box" Live. Apparently the evil haven for sexual predators told her there was "nothing they could do about it."
Gasp, shock and awe, "X-box" I'm surprised at you! Anyone with half a brain knows you can block gamertags, report them for abuse and set up parental controls, which not only limit access online for children, but also prevent them from playing games with M ratings.
First off, since when can you send pictures via XBL? I know I haven't used the service in a while but, I'm not entirely sure that feature even exists. Secondly, I doubt Support actually told her there was "nothing they could do about it." Support most likely told her about all the actions she could take, but she just hung up, outraged by someone telling to get off her lazy ass and do some parenting.
How dare they!

Congratulations Xbox Live and Playstation Network users, the Devil May Cry 4 demo is finally going to be up for download on Thursday, January 24th...The demo introduces gamers to the gothic-inspired supernatural world of Devil May Cry 4, new protagonist Nero and the awesome power of his Devil Bringer. The demo consists of a sampling of sections from the full game, chosen to showcase Devil May Cry 4’s varied locales and allows gamers to familiarize themselves with Nero’s unique abilities. Players will receive instruction on the various new actions that the Devil Bringer bestows, such as the ability to slam creatures to the ground, cover great distances in a single bound or even grab enemies while on the ground or in the air and pull them towards Nero to continue the attack combo. The Exceed system allows Nero to “rev up” his sword as if it were a motorbike throttle and unleash devastating attacks. Players will need to master all these techniques before the end of demo showdown with the mighty Berial.
Sounds like it'll be fun, thought I'm not sure how fans of the Devil May Cry series will feel about an all new white haired main character. If Nero ends up being a knock-off of Dante, I know that I'll be upset about that.
Also if you're wondering what the mysterious Berial boss looks like, check out his picture over here. He looks like a centaur mixed with Ifrit and dipped in a cauldron of fire. Oh, and a beard to rival the members from ZZ Top.
