I wondered (and still do) about where Comcast planned to get the Wii consoles since Wii's are still sold out everywhere.
First Comcast attacks torrent downloaders, now an assault on "core" gamers. Whats next? I kidd, I kidd. Free Wii's will expand the game market with more game consoles in homes. Right?

I think more movies should go without what has become the standard shovelware movie game. Read the rest of this entry »
