Evening Reading: What Are You Playing?
by Brian Leahy, May 14, 2010 5:00pm PDTThe weekend is upon us and that means it's time to play games non-stop, right? What are you playing this weekend?

If I wanted to get ethernet cables (like CAT6, for example) strung between the rooms of my house, what kind of people would I get to do this for me?
I've looked at data cable installation companies here in Edmonton, but I get this website:

...to which I submitted a quote, and got nothing back for like...a month now.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's noticed that the Void Ray is seriously overpowered right now, though. the only way to stop a Protoss player right now seems to be hitting him as early as possible, so he doesn't even have a chance to build.

What did everyone think of the last episode? I thought it was pretty good, but boy is this show up and down, I still don't even know if I enjoy it or not, yet - Rush is an awesome character, or he was, anyway.

I have Windows 7 available at no cost (besides time spent on moving everything). Should i upgrade ?
I know it's faster, but for those who upgraded from Vista, how big was the performance jump?

My parents got a bill on a credit card for something they didn't order, but it had apparently been delivered to their address. The only other person who knows the details to use that credit card online is my sister. Logically it'd make sense for it to be her, because she could take the items when they leave them around the fence, remove the courier note to say where they left them, to remove all evidence of it ever arriving.
She has an account on our home iMac. It's a Standard, non-admin account. I have an admin account myself.
I'm just wondering if there's any way to get into her directory/account to view her web history without resetting the account's password.

Basically, they're dropping celebs (no big surprise) and getting back to rock and roll roots.
That doesn't say anything if we're back at a GHIII situation where we had a new developer (Neversoft) and walls o' notes. And no word on back compat from older songs.

http://www.scribd.com/doc/31376177/Gizmodo-iPhoneOrder - Starts on the bottom of page 10 and finishes by about page 19.
It's a reasonably good read, even has something resembling a chase scene! (Middle of page 16). If Law and Order : LA should probably make an episode out of this and give him story credit.
I know that this is going to get turned into another squabble on the pros and cons of Apple but really it's more a chance to read a good cop story.

So did anyone watch the latest GTTV? They had a large amount of RDR stuff including about a 2 min in-game cutscenes between Marston and a sherrif. Looked real good in HD.
So what are you guts playing this weekend? Think I try to wrap up Split/Second.
