I picked up the new Bethesda title Wet this week after seeing the excellent trailer. It promised gritty, grindhouse, film-noir action. And it delivers… sort of.
“Wet” is short for “Wetwork”, you’re informed in the introduction. If you had any notions about this game being about sitting around in the bath tub, I’m sorry to disappoint. [...]
This year I upgraded my Xbox360’s hard-drive. I decided to get one of the big ones so I could transfer games to it and cut down on load times and hopefully, spare the DVD drive from an early death due to all the thrashing. I loaded up a bunch of games and everything was good.

I was going to write a little thing about how fun the ngmoco game Topple was, maybe even with an accompanying screen shot, but the App Store is still ridiculously slow here.

Remember when the Xbox 360 first came out? Remember how excited you were about the cool new interface? It looked so next-generation with all those panels whizzing around. I believe there were even a few people who said, “I can’t believe this is a Microsoft product it’s soo good”.
