Despite mediocre ratings while airing on Friday nights Dollhouse has enjoyed a supportive fan base and strong DVR viewership. It was able to survive its first season and made for somewhat of a surprise when it was picked up for a second season. However recent signs started appearing that it was in danger with the most glaring one when Fox pulled the show for November sweeps.
Earlier today Fox announced that Dollhouse has been canceled. It will however finish its full season 13 episode ord...

It would be one thing if NBA Unrivaled was 400 MS points/$5 but it isn't. The downloadable only game for XBLA and PSN is asking for 1200 MS points/$15. It appears that the sole reason for the is the use of the NBA license because there is nothing else about the game that could justify such a price. Luckily as with every downloadable game a free trial is offered. The trial includes the Lakers vs Magic with two minute quarters.
Yes, NBA Unrivaled does include the NBA license meaning it incl...

Despite EA taking three weeks off from Madden 10 roster updates I wanted to keep this going since it makes it easier to track performances as the weeks go on. Now halfway through the season there are only two undefeated teams though the Colts appear vulnerable due to defensive injuries. On the other end of the spectrum is the Giants who have now lost four straight games and should see that reflected in the ratings when the time comes.
