Alan Wake reviews hit the Net and we've got our spoiler-free full impressions to kickoff Whatcha Been Playin? Garnett, Brian, Jeff, and yes, Billy also got more time with the Halo:Reach beta, FIFA World Cup, Skate 3 multiplayer, and more. Plus they've got four and a bonus pick for Cannata-ford a New Game this week. DRM schemes, balancing game difficulty, and whether we want any of this Facebook social network fu in our games challenges the group in Four Minute. And the show winds up with a Front Page full of news including the announcement of Call of Duty: Black Ops for this fall, the winner of the million dollar MLB2K10 pitch a perfect game challenge, and a release date for Starcraft 2.
