It's been raining cats and dogs again. I can deal with heat, humidity, cold and snow, but I
hate rain.
Yesterday's NPD numbers were interesting; it's not so much a surprise that Halo 3: ODST topped the sales numbers or that PS3 outsold Wii and X360, but rather that The Beatles: Rock Band outsold Guitar Hero 5, even though
Activision claimed the franchise has been outselling EA's rhythm series 4-1, also

WP hero Nathan Fillion, and it was quite decent. It hadn't been on our radar at all, but if you like the suspense/thriller genre, it's definitely worth a rental.
