1. People are so quick to jump all over something and point out all the flaws, errors, and “mistakes” which a work might contain.

   But thanks to Frash and Garfield, we can see that these are generally cases of people overreacting. Things aren’t as bad as they seem.

2. Ever wonder what some creators think of the portrayals of their creations on the big screen?

   If so, then maybe you’d be interested in hearing what Stan Lee has to say.

   “Stan Lee came back?”

   “Stan Lee never left.”

3. ScrewAttack.com has a new Top 10 on GameTrailers, this time marking the Top Ten Douchebags of Gaming. Bet you’ll never guess who #1 is.

   Did your favorite sack of crap make the list?

   Plus, the Video Game Vault takes a look back at an old favorite of mine, Robocop.

4. Many more videos of Resident Evil for Wii are available as well.

   Can the best get even better?

5. Producer Seth Green talks about Robot Chicken: Star Wars and what it was like directing George Lucas.

   And speaking of Star Wars, the first footage of Clone Wars has surfaced.

6. GameDaily has a downloadable demo of Tomb Raider: Anniversary, for those interested in taking the lovely Ms. Croft for a spin.
7. The Wall Street Journal‘s interview with NOA Prez Reggie Fils-Aime reveals that– naturally– he expects the Wii to take over the #1 spot within a year’s time.

   Not that any rational person would expect ANY of the reps of their respective companies to say anything less, though.

8. Games Radar looks at the Top 7 Unfunny Games.

   Laughter is such a great thing, which makes the failure to bring it after such a hard attempt all the more sad.

9. A preview of Sonic Rush Adventure is available now.

   I hope they improve the maps/enemy placement over the first one…

10. Godzilla: Unleashed and lookin’ fine.
11. Video game Bento boxes.

    Sure, you can eat it, but would you?

12. Does sound matter in games?

    Short answer: Yes.

    Longer answer: Hell yes.

13. This is sort of neat, but I’d probably want a metal briefcase with a custom foam cut-out for a Wii remote, nunchuck, Classic controller, GameCube controller, and perhaps the possibly pending “Zapper” if I were to bother.

    You know. Like a really hardcore pro.

    …wait, no. That’d make me like Lucas. Second thoughts here…
