A new listing on the Australian Classification Board reveals that Konami is working on a game called "Battle: Los Angeles," under development by Saber Interactive (known for TimeShift, currently working on Inversion). Whether this game is tied into the upcoming Battle: Los Angeles movie is uncertain, especially since the game has not even announced yet, and the movie is due in March. However an indication of "Strong violence" and the fact that Saber Interative is known for shooter/action games leans towards a movie adaptation, albeit maybe a late one.

Our relaxing weekend is over too quickly, as usual.

We saw "The Fighter" yesterday, the last of the Oscar-nominated flicks that we wanted to check out, and now that we've watched it, it's quite apparent why Christian Bale is up for best supporting actor. Good stuff all around.

In between dozing off on the couch, we also watched Blue Bloods and The Cape. The DVR almost looks respectable, apart from nearly two seasons of Criminal Minds waiting to be viewed.

Today is Presidents' Day in the US, so coverage might be slower than usual in the afternoon, but we'll see what we can dig up.

In Honda ATV Fever, take on the most challenging tracks in the world and compete against the best in events, on dirt tracks, off road, and through treacherous mountains.

Yesterday was yet another rainy and gloomy day, so we skipped the Chinese New Year parade. It's not really fun to watch while getting drenched.

Instead, we watched Kitchen Nightmares, Fringe, V and Supernatural, all nice and cozy on our couch. I'd like to think we came out ahead!

Checking up on new upcoming shows, we read that both The Event and Chuck might be coming to a close as viewership isn't good enough to keep them on the air. What's wrong with you people?! Go watch that stuff!

On the other hand, some of the new shows are equally questionable, like Prime Suspect, yet another attempt at "remaking" a British TV series. Are the executives that short-sighted that they don't remember failed British remakes such as Coupling and Life On Mars? If it's not the original, don't bother.

Moon Diver invites players into an action-packed world of 4-player cooperative, side-scrolling mayhem.

Wine, spaghetti, meatballs, The Social Network and sleep...

That pretty much summed up last night, and it was all pretty awesome.

This morning was spent watching YouTube clips of Gary Moore, who passed away earlier this month. Saw some amazing performances like Parisienne Walkway, an awesome solo on Empty Rooms, an incredible cover version of The Thrill Is Gone with BB King, a live performance of Still Got The Blues (which made me tear up), and a sizzling tribute to Jimi Hendrix's Red House.

Too bad Gary Moore was way more popular in Europe than in North America. A lot of people are missing out on unbelievable-sounding guitar work, which we'll never get to hear live again.
