On a podcast related note: I'm glad that many Blurays come with a DVD and Digital Copy in the box. That way I can watch the Bluray on the good tv, the DVD goes to the kids' collection, and the digital copy goes to the ipod, iphone, computer, etc.

Transporter 2, a.k.a., "T2", is a great movie! I love the scene where she sets off the fire-sprinklers. 'oops - I'm all wet, and packing uzis'.

Anyone else having trouble with the podcast? The one in my RSS feed stops at 27:13. Same thing happens when I try to download it direct from the website.

No more Alan Wake talk please! Guys the game didn't sell because it is not that good of a game. Face it at best it is a good rental but as a $60 it leaves the player feeling ripped off.
Red Dead is selling better because it is flat out a better game. Face it Alan wake is more of cool idea then an actually fun game to play.

BioWare's DLC strategy is severely lessening my interest in owning their games until more compiled GotY type packages exists.
Dragon Age DLC in particular is baffling to me because of the hours per dollars ratio gulf which exists between the massive vanilla game and the tiny DLC tidbits.
I hate to say it but between this DLC weirdness and what looks like an utter neutering of Dragon Age 2...I'm just not interested in any upcoming BioWare releases until they figure out what the hell they are doing in regards to content.
I don't sell my games so when you string along someone like me with questionable DLC releases it only makes me not buy your games at all and sours me on the titles all-together.
Bethesda got it right with Fallout 3. RPG developers should all copy their strategy. $10 for about 6-10 hours followed up by a GotY edition feels right...not this $7+ for maybe 2 hours crap.
I hate equating hours to dollars but in the age of digital distribution I need more meat on the bones or I'll simply never even take a bite.

I dont think its realistic to expect downloadable content to offer a significant amount of gaming in addition to the core release. Its there to supplement the main game for those that are dying for more content, and if you can get an extra 8 or 10 hours for an extra 20 bucks or so then I think thats fine. Why it would put you off buying another major release is baffling.
