I've been struggling with my longtime RSS feed reader. For some reason, it has stopped working and only intermittently gives me updates. It also deleted a bunch of links I had stored up, and it just crapped out on me in general.
Tomorrow is our weekly Free Code Friday, and this time around, we are handing out From Dust PSN codes. If you haven't checked it out yet, be sure to keep an eye on
our Twitter feed.
I also wanted to address our
Space Marine PS3 review. Having played it through on PC and even jumping into some online games, it baffles me that THQ is not fixing the PS3 version. Its multiplayer has been broken since launch, and we've waited over two weeks to see if there would be a patch to rectify the issue, but alas, it did not arrive by review time. That's why it received such a low score in comparison to the
Xbox 360 version.

Back from the 1C "Another Night in Moscow" event at the Russian Consulate, where there were copious amounts of food, drink and video games. A little old lady cornered me at the event and started telling me her life story. I must have one of those faces ....
We're taking a break from movies this weekend because nothing interesting is out. We have the "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1" DVD from Netflix, so we might try to watch that and get caught up in time for "Part 2," which hits theaters next weekend.
We'll be giving away PSN and XBLA codes for
Gatling Gears on our
Twitter feed today, so
follow us for a chance to win!

Yesterday was a bit of an odd day. We hauled furniture twice (once moving it out of the way, and then back in place), did some groceries/errands. some early holiday gift shopping, watched The Walking Dead,
Harvey, and Smallville. All the lugging around made us hungry in the afternoon, which inevitably led to the fact we were not feeling like eating around dinner time. We sat down to dinner at the stroke of midnight instead.
We have nothing specific on the agenda for today, so we've settled on watching Tony Scott's train wreck of a movie
Unstoppable (featuring
Denzel Washington and
Chris Pine, the new Cpt. Kirk).

Yesterday was a beautiful day. The weather hadn't been this great in weeks, so we ventured out a bit, did some shopping, and went out with friends for all-you-can-eat sushi (SO stuffed). We also saw
The Other Guys (with
Mark Wahlberg,
Will Ferrell, also starring
Samuel L. Jackson and
Dwayne Johnson) which turned out to be rather funny, even though we are not big Ferrell fans. To top it off, we also watched the pilot for Warehouse 13, a sci-fi series we've been meaning to check out. The trailers did not really do it justice, as it is better than we anticipated.
No special plans today, I foresee some walking, eating, and movie watching in our imminent future.

The weekend is over, so it's back to the grind ....
Not much happened yesterday. We did our chores, watched some DVR (Human Target, The Good Wife), played some video games, and then we watched the premiere episode of HBO's new miniseries, The Pacific. Made by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks, this is the successor, not sequel, to Band of Brothers. While it's also set during WWII, this miniseries focuses on the Pacific Theater of the war instead of the European part. It has mostly been an introduction to some of the characters and one minor encounter with the enemy, the Japanese Imperial Army. So far so good. Can't wait to see the next episode, and hopefully, they'll kick it up a notch.

Yesterday was filled with doing a whole lot of nothing. It was exquisite!
We started off the day at 10ish, went to eat dim sum, after which we sent off Ricky, who's responsible for the new site, to the airport. We then plopped ourselves on the couch and watched a few episodes of "Bones," "Dollhouse," and "Hell's Kitchen." All we did in between was get groceries and nuke some leftovers from last night's trip to The Cheesecake Factory.
I wish I could tell you more, but that's about it. Luckily we have three press trips planned this week, so there should be some interesting stuff coming up.
