G4 was actually SUPER awesome when it was a niche digital cable channel. It was hardcore video game channel - this was prior to the TechTV merger. This channel was nerd central! I mean, G4 had an entire half hour series of MMO machinima. http://www.youtube.com/watch?&v=InxMyUotVwc
It seems very familiar to how the Guitar Hero franchise ended up getting diluted into plethora of spin-offs and sequels. Action adventure ? Digital distribution ? Targeting the Asian market ? oh dear.. Wonder what is the fate of IW. It's a bit surreal to the point of being a bad joke .

About a year ago I took two desktops, a laptop, a wacom, a monitor, and two digital cameras on a trip from D.C. to Phoenix. Everything made it fine. Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Hope you get it all back or at least a pile of cash.
"The release of Tiger Woods online as a free to play experience will be the real test of the Western consumer's appetite for digital downloading," The same rehashed golf game with a new tiger woods model...only for free...except you have to microtrans every bucket of balls.....EA spells Inovation
