Ludacris' "Press the Start Button" is a Moving Tribute to Video Games [Ludacris]
The track, it seems, was only included on the Netherlands release of this album, but it's available for your listening pleasure on a number of sites. He's got some gratuitous bad words in there, so it gets the NSFW tag just to cover my ass. In his rhymes, I count references to Contra, Street Fig...

So, How Much Space Do Your 360 Games Installs Take Up? [New Xbox Experience]
The New Xbox Experience lets you install 360 games onto your HDD. Great news for anyone - like myself - who gets DISC READ ERRORS as often as the sun both rises and sets.
