Evening Reading

Some big business news today. Now I know what Bethesda's Pete Hines was hinting at when he told me: "Knowing what I know about stuff that's going on, I would say by the end of this year we will have more people's attention than we have now."

Speaking of business, Shack parent company GameFly officially launched its casual game site Ponged.com today. It's a Flash game site with a "boss button" that opens up a Google search for "boss gift ideas." Kind of amusing.

News:

We'll still be hearing Max Payne's thoughts
Gears of War 2 is getting another update
Gearbox trademarks "War Hero" brand
Bethesda parent Zenimax acquires id Software
EA places BioWare and Mythic into consolidated MMO/RPG division

  Is it possible for me to log in and watch you guys play or is that not possible? I'd really like to see it happen before playing my first game on Saturday.
