Last day of the week, and also last day of GamesCom, which opened to the public yesterday. We don't expect too many more announcements to be made.
We have no special plans this weekend, apart from a pit stop at a tasty BBQ place for dinner, maybe watch The Change-up, check out a few Netflix movies that are lying around, or if we feel adventurous, maybe a hike.
Our main chore, however, will be catching up on those pesky GamesCom press kits. Joy!

Rock of Ages is a game of fast-paced strategy, high art... and gigantic boulders of doom. Two castles stand opposed, bridged by an uneven, narrow pathway. One is yours, the other is your enemy's, and their crappy crenelations are driving down your property values, justification enough to try crush it using an enormous rolling stone.

There's no denying that GamesCom has kicked off, and there have already been a few interesting announcements. It'll run through the end of the week, so I'm certain there are more goodies to follow, so keep your eyes peeled.
Early reviews for the new
Conan movie are quite disappointing, one calling it "a barbaric bore." Guess we're not rushing out to see that one when it comes out this week. Adam got to see
Fright Night last night, which also opens this weekend, so we'll have a review on that shortly. Next week we're checking out
Warrior, so we'll have some coverage on that.
Also keep an eye out on our
WP Twitter feed as Friday we'll be giving away PS3 and PC codes for
Call Of Duty: Black Ops Annihilation.
