The good, the bad, the ugly of Star Wars Ep 3 (spoilers!)
Great summary of all the great parts of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith countered and ruined by the huge amount of crappy parts.

Cy Young winner Santana prepares with PSP
If only my copy of MVP Baseball would ACTUALLY SHOW UP! It was supposed to be here Monday, but stupid UPS sent it 330 miles from Mesquite to Port Arthur instead of the 20 miles to Plano. Morons.

Civ IV
This one's for Matt. Game looks good, although I spend enough time in front of a computer these days so I've sworn off PC gaming.

NCAA 2006 Impressions
Great blog I found this morning from three guys who love sports gaming
and apparently work in the business. They've got an excellent write-up on some hands-on impressions of NCAA Football 2006. I can't wait. It'll most likely be the last game I buy for this generation of consoles.

Those who don't sign up with Netflix by June 17 will lose their service. Wal-Mart plans to continue promoting the Netflix service on its Web site.
In return, Netflix will remind its subscribers that they can buy DVDs from Walmart.com.

Is Star Wars Ep. 3 anti-Bush?
Dear Celebrities,
We do not give a shit what your political opinions are, regardless of which side you're on. Especially if you're freaking Canadian.

I'm guessing Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie aren't on their way to Krispey Kreme

Someone needs to buy Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie a sandwich. They are seriously skinny in a very unhealthy way.

Xbox 360 Official Shots
Gizmodo has some Norweigan magazine scans of the Xbox 360 and it's controllers. Thing's I've deduced from the images:
- Xbox live headset will plug directly into controller
- The big green orb on the controller is more than a button, it some sort of 4-way thumbstick
- The system will come with a camera
- I have no idea what a
hukommelseskortporte
is, but it's got two of them

U.S. appeals court throws out broadcast flag
Great news, our government took time out of their busy schedule to actually do something in the public's best interest. The court said the Federal Communications Commision had overstepped it's authority and struck down the broadcast flag.
The broadcast flag would essentially let the networks be able to tell you what you could or could not record.
Next step, dismantle the FCC altogether.

Update: PVRblog discusses the ruling and makes me want to build a MythTV box.
