Unfortunately, I’ve come across a problem that has been happening for about a week or two with our contact form. Without boring you all with technical talk, basically, I was not receiving more than half of the emails that were submitted through the contact form. So, if you submitted something and were anticipating a reply, know that I don’t hate you…It’s just that I never received your email!

The problem has been fixed now and I don’t believe that the issue will arise in the future. But again, if you sent in an email and were expecting a reply, please know that you can now resend the message!

It wasn’t a very Merry Christmas for one couple yesterday. Randi Young and Heath Blom were both arrested after fighting and bruising each other the Wii. Young gave the system to Blom, her boyfriend, for Christmas, but according to police, that’s not what he had wanted. Instead, Blom was hoping that he would receive a remote-controlled airplane.

Blom denied that the police were incorrect and said that he had asked his grandparents to buy him the airplane for his birthday.
He claimed, “You can’t fly an RC plane in the snow.” He did, however, admit that he was not happy with the Wii and told his grandmother so. Blom also claimed that his girlfriend called him names “for not liking the Wii.”

Eventually, after fighting for awhile, Young began packaging her bags. Thinking that his girlfriend was “walking off” with the Wii, he became angry, and Young said that she was then dragged down two flights of stairs. Blom asserted that he was simply trying to block her and then she punched him a couple of times. After that, he says he pulled her hair.

Both Young and Blom were charged with assault.

“We’ve noticed a bit of confusion on the forums regarding add-on content for Rock Band 2 on the Wii. The downloadable content is in the final testing stages and Harmonix is working as fast as possible to deliver the 20 free bonus songs for Rock Band 2, plus an additional 30 songs from the Rock Band DLC Catalog to fans as early in 2009 as possible. As soon as we can announce a firm date, you can be sure the Rock Band community will be the first to know. We hope this clears up any confusion about Wii DLC. Again, Rock Band 2 for the Wii is an amazing full band experience that ships with 84 of the best tracks in rock and roll. Stay tuned here for more information as it becomes available.” – Harmonix developer

“When we first saw Chop Till You Drop in action, there were a few zombies shuffling about onscreen, and we assumed that was the most we were going to get. Capcom’s been working to address the zombie-less zombie game issue, and the undead count has increased considerably since then. Currently the number doesn’t look quite like the hundred Capcom was aiming for, but it’s still a lot – enough to make running through the mall to rescue people feel hazardous, at least. – Nintendo Power

Honestly, I’m not surprised that the developers were unable to add in 100 zombies at once. It’s actually not a big deal for me personally – if the game plays decently, I won’t mind. Besides, if Nintendo Power claims that there are “still a lot” of zombies, that’s enough for me.
