Man, I was going along just fine…and then my internet died! I was busy typing up an ‘EoD’ thought on my iPhone, and just as I finished it, the net came back. Quite a frustrating way to end the night, but at least all ended well! You guys enjoy the rest of your night/morning, and I’ll catch you in a few, short hours. This week brought a pretty interesting bit of information pertaining to Netflix. We know that the Wii is finally going to see the service made available, and plenty of people are excited about that. It may be the last console to get into the Netflix fun, but it does have the potential for the biggest impact. While that remains to be seen, now we’re hearing that the Wii isn’t Nintendo’s only platform that could get some Netflix love. As I’m sure you’ve read here earlier, a Netflix survey asked about the potential for their service running on the DS. Could you imagine if that really happened? The power of Netflix in your pocket…or slightly out of your pocket if you’re going to be a DSi XL owner. Either way, having Netflix on the go via your portable gaming device of choice is a pretty big deal. Of course, this survey doesn’t mean that Netflix on the DS is a done deal. As of right now, it’s just an idea being shopped around. I have a simple question for you guys. Is Netflix something you could see yourself using on the DS? If you’re on the road a lot, I think this sort of feature could be a huge deal. A little travel buddy that’s packed with all sorts of gaming fun…or some films if you choose. Leave a comment and let us know what you think of this possible outcome.

You never really hear gamers talk about why they love and hate other companies. That fun little discussion almost always seems to land with Nintendo. For some reason, millions of gamers have plenty of reasons to love Nintendo…and an equal amount of reasons to hate them. I guess that’s a good thing. Having you feelings always feel one particular way would be boring! Article here

Sex is usually an awkward topic when you bring it into various forms of media. Some people still have issues with TV shows, movies, music, books and games dealing with the topic of sex. It’s a natural part of life, and it can no doubt be a story point that helps to strengthen the bond between characters…or even tear them appart in some instances. While most other medias manage to bring the topic of sex across in meaningful ways, games are still struggling. Why is it that devs can’t work this part of life into games? Article here
