MOTD
I'm glad No More Heroes is
making its way to the PS3 and Xbox 360, although I'd have preferred the new one rather than the original title. I always thought the content was way too mature for the Wii, and I don't mean in a blood & gore way. It probably showed in the sales numbers as well, hence justifying the decision to port it. Hopefully some publisher — I'm looking at you, Ubisoft — picks it up and brings it to North America and Europe.
We made a little headway on the DVR today as we watched Smallville, Supernatural and NCIS. Now if we could only keep up this pace, we may actually catch up. Luckily, the weekend is ahead of us, and we have no specific plans, so as soon as we watch Stargate Universe, we can tackle the rest of the backlog.
