WORDS BY: Nic Vargus

Welcome to our new weekly online column! If you’ve ever searched the internet looking for a current report on everything that Xbox Live Marketplace has to offer, you’ve no doubt hit numerous dead-ends. Heads Up alleviates your frustrations by offering a quick and complete guide to what you may have missed over the past week both on Marketplace and in stores. It’s our new release calendar, hopefully as complete as it can be.
