Evening Reading
by Jeff Mattas, Jan 13, 2011 5:00pm PSTI'm not exactly sure what triggered the impulse, but I've been revisiting the show 'Sifl and Olly' recently on ye ol' YouTubes.
For the uninitiated, 'Sifl and Olly' was a short-lived comedy show created by musicians Liam Lynch and Matt Crocco that aired on late-night MTV from 1997-'99. It bears the distinction of being one of the most-beloved pieces of original comedy programming the network ever aired, while also being one of the lowest-rated. Sadly, despite fan requests, it's unclear if series will ever see a re-release that isn't so rare that it immediately becomes ridiculously expensive.
On that note, have a crescentfresh chatty.

Ignore the headline, and concentrate on this quote from Michael Pachter:
"Activision was intentionally opaque about who was working on next year's game, and specifically refused to acknowledge whether the next game was being made by Infinity Ward or Sledgehammer when I asked them directly about it.
"So it is not safe to assume it's going to be an Infinity Ward game [that launches November 2011]. The only safe assumption is that there will be a Call of Duty game in 2011."
Not the most outlandish Pachterian forecast; seems in line with present expectations. Rumor has it they're sticking with IW4 for whatever's coming in 2011.

if there is another sequel that comes out that isn't awful this year then it might be the first yearly franchise that is not awful and just merely uninteresting
