Netflix is kind of in a bad situation so I can't blame them for doing it (though I'll likely be discontinuing my account as well). Their contracts are starting to expire and when they originally got them, they were the only streaming video source around and didn't have that many people taking advantage of it so they were done for dirt cheap. Now their costs are going to increase nearly 10 times over since there's so many more places doing streaming TV, movies, etc. and the audience has gotten so much bigger and the studios know it. My guess is the end result will be Netflix as a high priced source with the biggest selection and then stuff like Hulu that will show NBC's TV shows for a smaller cost.

This damn hotel still has no online. At least it seems like I didnt miss much. I guess its another steam night. Torchlight is cool but I dont know how far I will get with it.

Fuuu, Borderlands is so cool.

First time playing?

Oh wow, that region merging thing in SC 2 is awesome. That means I won't have to buy an US copy of the game to play with Yoda. July 18th.

EA bought PoPCap for 750M?

Shieeeet. That's a good chunk of dinero.

Just beat Warriors. I'm on a mutha-fuckin' roll this week.

I'm considering the movie game thing, and want to stay on the XB, so am looking into playing Run Like Hell (about to see what the reviews and also how long it is). EDIT: Never mind, I'm playing King Arthur instead (made by Krome interestingly).

I'm not surprised with how things are getting released on the 3DS VC, it's just typical release style. You start off with the least wanted stuff and work your way up hoping consumers get the mostly so-so games because there isn't much better to choose from at the moment.

I hate that.

I want all the games released in one big catalogue that I can pick and choose from like a pick and mix sweet trolly.

Link's Awakening and Donkey Kong are not so-so games.

I might pick up Links Awakening. I want shantae too but at over £10 it costs more than N64 games on the VC.

This is why you'll miss out on many good gaming experiences.

It doesn't tell you when it saves. I spent a few hours on the game thinking, when is this damn thing going to save. I hate that, having to play longer than you want because you can't tell when its saving. Maybe I missed the icon or something but eventually I just had to shut it off and cross my fingers.  

Just checked the euro 3DS shop, that Nintendo video thing is not up.

^It puts up the words "Auto Saving" in the bottom right hand corner. At least the XB version does.

Fuck. Never saw it.
