Upcoming Games List?
I know Xbox.com has an upcoming games calendar, but it's really awful and behind-the-times. Can anyone link me to a good and reliable upcoming games calendar/list for Aussies?

Thanks.

Also finding this very frustrating. It is still showing august releases as the next releases. Is this the same for everyone?
I sent an email through the support function. Hopefully they fix it!

Cheers, Lynchy.

Had the same issue with Deal of the week - The link above (XBox Live - Offers & Competitions) still shows Penny Arcade as the deal of the week. Looks like the Webadmin is being lazy all over the Australian site.
I mustn't run away...

It's coming out in 'winter' in the US, so therefore sometime between December and February here. I'm unsure whether a specific date has been announced yet.

What about the so called 'Monthly Giveaways' they haven't been drawn since 31st of Janurary!!!! I mean there is someone there behind the scenes releasing new giveaways each month... so why not draw them?

It's interesting actually as the competitions are no longer a game of skill (25 words or less) they are covered by legislation governing how they are conducted - this includes documenting and notifying the winners. So the questions i has anyone won anything lately and has anyone seen a notification of who the winners were?  If we were to complain I'm sure something would get done but honestly is it worth it when they'er effectively giving away something for nothing.

I just wish they'd bring back the old 25 words or less ones - I scored 2 games from those.

Exactly, its not a big deal, but its still false advertising. Quite clearly states that the winners are drawn monthly.

I only found out about them around janurary, so i've never seen a draw Sad [:(] lol
