What a great weekend this has been. Not a whole lot on the news front, but I suspect that nobody wanted to have to fight for attention from the blogosphere while SingSterling was going on. I kept it on all day and it was one of the more entertaining webcasts I think I've ever seen.
Extra Life seemed to make out pretty well, raising over $100,000 for children's cancer research. That should make everyone involved feel pretty good.
Here's what we didn't write about this weekend because we were too busy swooning over the vocal stylings of Sterling:
- Sony Europe believes that digital distribution on the PSP will encourage developers to produce more titles for the handheld. [GamesIndustry]
- Suda 51 says that No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle will have a better open-world design and more serious plot. [Eurogamer]
- Left 4 Dead's lead designer explains why more games don't have split-screen and why it was so important for L4D. [MTV Multiplayer]
- Aaron Greenburg is claiming holiday sales victory for the 360 a little early, methinks. But the price advantage will surely help. [Kotaku]
Let's not beat around the bush. The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals rank up there with Heaven's Gate and the Manson Family in terms of sheer, batsh*t lunacy. We've been hearing a fair bit of them in gaming-related...
Not a lot of time tonight, I'm afraid, so this is going to be a quickie. I have to get packing for the trip up to CES and I haven't done a damn thing yet. I even have laundry yet to do. I'm so screwed.Anyway, here are stories...

I did something last week that I swore to myself would never happen. I signed up for a Twitter account. The whole thing always struck me as being horribly self-indulgent and egotistical. Who the hell could possibly care about...
All of my friends are in my living room, laughing and playing Rock Band 2 right now. It sounds like they're having a really good time, once they figure out what songs they're going to play.What am I doing? Putting together yo...
Nick Chester's review of Prince of Persia pushed me over the edge and made me break my sacred vow not to buy any more games this year. Like many, I was concerned about the lack of death, fearing that it would convey a sense t...
I've been giving a lot of thought recently as to how I could improve the Scraps column. Don't get me wrong, I've always believed that it provides a valuable service to you in giving you bits of leftover news. There was always...
I've been really digging the Netflix Instant Watch feature on the 360. Most of all, their impressive library of documentaries available on the service. I love documentaries but they never wind up being something I feel compel...
Been a while, hasn't it? Well, I'd like to blame that fact on how exceptional our news coverage has been of late. And that's exactly what I'm going to do. Why, there's been nary a thing to put in one of these posts for weeks ...
