Huge Opening Day for Alice In Wonderland
Showing just how much impact 3D can have on an already high interest film, Alice in Wonderland opened to a massive $41 million on Friday. That puts it on track for a weekend take of around $115 million. The Oscars could slightly impact its Sunday gross.
With this the film has broken the record for the biggest opening day for a non-sequel and now has the second biggest opening day of all-time behind only Twilight: New Moon. Blowing by the expectations that pegged it in the $60-70 range, Alic...
NFL Offseason Transactions in Madden Screenshots – Set #1
As I did last year I will be tracking the movement in NFL free agency and any trades that are made and posting screenshots of the players in their new uniforms using Madden 10. The first complete day of free agency saw a handful of big names sign and a few trades completed. The Bears and Lions have been the two most active teams but the Dolphins, Ravens, Falcons, Giants and Jets have acquired new players as well. The Cardinals take the biggest hit having lost four of the best players since the...
MLB 2K10 Online Play Will Require Patch
After investigating the issue previously reported on, 2K Sports now states that the fix to online play will be coming via patch. That means that ranked games, at least on a frequent basis, could be largely inaccessible for at a minimum of a few weeks.

MLB 10: The Show Videos
As I continue to play the new baseball titles and collect general and online impressions I've also recorded some videos from MLB 10: The Show that I figured would be worth posting up, especially given that the demo did not even come out this week. In this group of videos there are two focusing on gameplay, one with an inning of Rangers @ Mariners and the other a stretch of action with the Reds @ Marlins. There is also a video with an appearance in Road to the Show and a run through of the Ho...
Disney May Be Planning Ant-Man Movie
Slashfilm has discovered that Disney, who owns the rights to the Marvel properties, has purchased a domain for a possible Ant-Man movie. As they state, generally domains are bought because something is being developed. Ant-Man-TheMovie.com is probably more specific than if they were just picking up the url to protect from someone else grabbing it.
With Iron Man and Incredible Hulk already out and Thor and Captain America in development the next project in the Marvel world was expected to be...
