Now and again we all need a good excuse to hog the TV for an evening and join our friends on Xbox Live. It’s nice to be able to had a valid reason to game! With this in mind we came up with the GBS Live Night.

One evening usually every fortnight or something the three of us will be on Xbox Live in a game waiting for you lot (our readers) to join us.

We’ll try and publish a list of games we’ll be in at some point before the evenings but don’t be surprised if we end up spending all night in Gears of War, PGR3 or even our personal favourite Arcade title - Marble Blast Ultra.

All you have to do is make sure you have one of us in your friends list on Xbox Live. Our gamertags are on the right. We’ll usually announce our next GBS Live Night straight after the previous one.

So for now, all you want to know is when the next GBS Live Night is… (drumroll please)

No dates planned just yet.
