NASA & Xbox unveil free ‘Mars Rover Landing’ game

Perhaps you planned to celebrate the expected August 5 landing of NASA's Curiosity rover on the surface of Mars with a six pack of Zima and a bag of Funyuns? How about a free game instead? Mars Rover Landing is available right now for free download on Xbox Live. Gameplay involves the Kinect motion sensor, letting players take control of the spacecraft during the so-called "seven minutes of terror" as it enters the red planet's atmosphere.

"It's going to be very similar to the way the team actually is going to do that."

Battlefield 4 announced, beta to arrive in fall of 2013

That seems to indicate a late '13/early '14 release date, meaning it'd be at least two years in between Battlefield games, since BF3 was released in October 2011. Meanwhile, Warfighter comes out October 23, and this new video shows off the multiplayer portion of the game.
