To take a break from all the APB Reloaded madness, we've been checking out a few other F2P titles this weekend, such as Combat Arms, and 14-day trials of
Earthrise and
Darkfall. Later today, GamersFirst plans to relaunch
Fallen Earth as free to play, so that's next.
Rise of the Planet of the Apes and
Real Steel are two movies that initially didn't really capture my attention, but as their launch is drawing closer, the new trailers have managed to grab my interest, so they're now high on my to-watch list.
Next week, we're attending the advance screening of
Final Destination 5. While we've seen a few of the previous installments, I dropped out after the third movie, so I guess we'll have to brush up on the fourth one before we head out.

What's up with these MMO companies that want you to give them your payment information to activate your account when the retail version includes the first month for free? Why would I potentially put myself at risk with my credit card if I don't even know if I want to subscribe? I already paid you for the game, and you gave me a free month to try it out. Why do you want more? Makes me not even bother to try out your game in the first place, I've already tossed aside two games because of that.
We watched the new Harry Potter movie yesterday, and it was quite good. It's nice to see it all getting wrapped up, but personally, I was a bit disappointed in the ending. Had hoped for some more fireworks. What's up with the "19 years later" bit? I see the point that they want to show everything went full circle, and it's in the book and everything, but all I got from it was that they all got fat and ugly.

There was wine involved last night, so it was lights out shortly thereafter, and I slept like a baby.
We haven't decided which movie to see later tonight, but it's quite surprising that
The Smurfs outpaced
Cowboys & Aliens so far this weekend, even if it's only by a small margin. You'd figure that Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig (007) have more appeal than a few blue CGI characters, even if they are funny and cute.
To take a break from APB and The Witcher 2, I finally decided to try out Brink, and I'm not liking it at all. I'm not sure if it's me or the game, but I can't figure out for the life of me where and what the next objective is, only to end up losing the match because my AI teammates are no help at all.
