If you’re fanatical about gaming then start flexing your thumbs; the Xbox 360™ Games Tour is coming to town. Gamers across six UK cities will get the first chance to test the amazing range of killer titles and latest accessories on Xbox 360, the next generation gaming and entertainment console from Microsoft®. Up first is Manchester followed by Newcastle, Birmingham, Sheffield, Southampton and finishing up in London.

The line up of ‘must have’ games out for Christmas includes “Gears of War®”* – the enthralling third-person tactical action game and “Viva Piñata™” - a window to another world where players of all ages can create a fantastical island to care for different species of Piñata animals. Go back to the old school with the latest games from Xbox Live® Arcade including Marble Blast Ultra and Street Fighter® II and discover the latest games from over 100 next generation games on Xbox 360.

Gamers will also get the chance to test the latest new range of accessories for the Xbox 360, including the Xbox 360 wireless headset, Wireless Racing Wheel and the brand new Xbox Live Vision video camera which launched earlier this month. Xbox Live Vision lets you customise your gamer picture, send photo messages, and video chat with friends and family over Xbox Live.

The 360 Games Tour begins at The Trafford Centre in Manchester before heading to Newcastle’s Metro Centre. It stops off next at Birmingham’s Bullring, followed by the Meadowhall Centre in Sheffield, before making its way south to Southampton’s West Quays. The tour culminates at the Lakeside shopping centre in London on the 2nd and 3rd of December.

The Manchester event is open to the general public from the following times;

• Friday 10am - 10pm
• Sat 10am – 8pm
• Sunday 12pm - 6pm
• Monday 10am - 10pm
• Tuesday 10am - 10pm

“This is a great chance for people around the country to try the latest games and accessories for the Xbox 360, in some cases before the games even hit the shelves.” said Stephen McGill, Head of Marketing for Xbox UK. “Gaming just gets better and better and we’re sure gamers will be impressed with our latest offerings for the Xbox 360.”
