Last night, we attended the Act Of Valor press screening, and it was awesome! We'll have a review for you later this week, but it exceeded our expectations. I was afraid that it would disappoint (especially after the Red Tails fiasco), but it was great, packed with action, and was even emotionally touching. I had to fight off some tears at the end.
No time for gaming yesterday, but I downloaded and installed the
Firefall beta, so I'll give that a try later on.
Remember that
Black Ops 2 incident from a few days ago, with the French Web site getting blacklisted? Activision claims it's all
a big misunderstanding. Really? Because there was a lot being said there, and it's kind of difficult to misunderstand ALL of that crap in one sitting.

Yesterday was quite the slow day, mainly because of Presidents' Day in the U.S., but it should pick up again today.
Unfortunately, I have to a quick visit at the dentist, but hopefully that won't take long. Every second spent in that cursed chair is a second too long.
We watched House, Fringe, The Good Wife, Comic Book Men (Kevin Smith series about his comic book store), Full Metal Jousting (damn, that looks like it hurts), and Two Broke Girls.
Going to give the PC version of Alan Wake a try later today and see what all the hubbub is all about. Maybe I'll even get around to finally checking out RAGE. I downloaded it but never fired it up.
Most importantly, though, tonight is the screening of Act of Valor. It had better not disappoint (*cough*Red Tails*cough*).
