Franticly paced and strategic, Fat Princess: Fistful of Cake pits two hordes of players against each other in comic medieval battle royale on PSP.

Therefore, it will take much of the army working together to carry her across the battlefield.

L4D2 promises to set a new benchmark for co-operative action games, adding melee combat to enable deeper co-operative gameplay, with items such as a chainsaw, frying pan, axe, baseball bat, and more.

Oh boy, we're in trouble! The new TV season started, and there are so many TV series that we want to follow that at certain points, there are three of them on at the same time. Luckily, the DVR can record two at the same time, and we can watch a third one live on TV, but damn, we'll have a lot of catching up to do during the weekend.

Tonight, we watched the two-hour premiere of "House" and the new season of "Castle." Both are off to a good start.

Speaking of "Castle," we're still waiting on Nathan Fillon's publicist to set up a time for us to conduct the Halo 3: ODST-related interview, and while we were hoping to run it before the game's launch, that unfortunately no longer seems possible, since it just shipped. Hopefully soon, though.
