I've been pretty ho-hum about the GTA franchise since playing through about half of

Vice City but I'm pretty sure when Grand Theft Auto 4 hits I'm

going to be quite interested again. With all the stuff we're seeing lately I may actually

preorder that thing. Crazy. On the other hand, I havent quite seen anything on Gears of War 2 that excites me.

Yet.

As for the the videogame news around these parts for today:

Lastly, Google sent us an invitation to their latest toy, the google ad manager. Anyone

out there have any luck with this thing? Is it worth fussing with over other solutions

like OpenX? Oh and Yahoo has their own

thing coming.
