Final 2010 Oscar Predictions
With the 82nd Annual Academy Awards taking place this evening I wanted to get my final thoughts and predictions out. This is one of the more highly anticipated Oscar ceremonies in years. Much of that due the expansion of the Best Picture nominations to include 10 films which has allowed for a few mainstream inclusions that may have not been nominated otherwise. Despite that, it is really only a race between two, with two other extreme dark horses looming. Make sure to check back shortly after ...

Fringe Renewed for Third Season
Great news today as Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Fox has picked up the sci-fi show Fringe for a third season. While the show has strong support from reviewers and fans it has been in some danger due to the relatively high production costs and ratings that have not been strong enough to make renewal a sure thing. It seemed like a good bet that it would be coming back but many saw Fox as having to make a decision between it and Lie to Me. No word on the latter as of yet but it is in a ...

Huge Opening Day for Alice In Wonderland
Showing just how much impact 3D can have on an already high interest film, Alice in Wonderland opened to a massive $41 million on Friday.

Blowing by the expectations that pegged it in the $60-70 range, Alic...

The first complete day of free agency saw a handful of big names sign and a few trades completed. The Bears and Lions have been the two most active teams but the Dolphins, Ravens, Falcons, Giants and Jets have acquired new players as well. The Cardinals take the biggest hit having lost four of the best players since the...

MLB 2K10 Online Play Will Require Patch
After investigating the issue previously reported on, 2K Sports now states that the fix to online play will be coming via patch. That means that ranked games, at least on a frequent basis, could be largely inaccessible for at a minimum of a few weeks. More likely it will be well over a month under the assumption that they roll it into the first gameplay patch. To give an idea of the severity of this online problem had it been discovered by Microsoft and Sony then MLB 2K10 would have failed ...

More Early News on NCAA Football 11
The official website for NCAA Football 11 has gone live and includes some new content. The first blog goes over in a little more detail a few of the new features that were originally revealed last week. The topics covered include on-field referees and formation substitutions.

MLB 2K10 Gameplay and My Player Videos
As I continue to play the new baseball titles and collect general and online impressions I’ve also recorded some videos from MLB 2K10 that I figured would be worth posting up. In this group of videos there are two focusing on gameplay, one with the first inning of Padres @ Diamondbacks and the other an inning of Astros @ Pirates. There is also a video with my first appearance made in My Player mode in the pressure situation. Continue on to check out the videos and leave your thoughts ...
