MOTD
It was a crowded day yesterday, with two back-to-back press events (Ubisoft and Square Enix) to announce upcoming games. You'll see some coverage on those titles in the near future, whenever the embargoes lift. One more to go later this week ...
Didn't get much watching done yesterday. I watched a bit of Drag Me to Hell but didn't get much more than 10 mins into it before things came up. Later in the evening, we watched another episode of Flashpoint, and I'm glad to see that the tail end of the first season mixes things up a bit with the scenarios. Good stuff.
Gaming-wise, we should be getting a Wii soon, hopefully. It's taken this long because there aren't many games on there that we personally find to be appealing. I'm a sucker for light gun games — can't pass one up at the arcades without popping in a few quarters — and with NERF N-Strike Elite having recently shipped and Capcom's Resident Evil around the corner, it had to happen.

Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing saga with an unprecedented level of action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse. While MW2 may be Gamestop's
highest selling pre-order, the fact that there will be
no dedicated server support caused quite a stir. Now PC gamers get further kicked to the curb as
a recent Live Chat reveals that the PC multiplayer will only support 9vs9 (compared to World at War's 25vs25).
