I’m doing my best to throw out as much Microsoft news as I can to sorta offset all the Apple news you get on this site. It was only a matter of how much, rather than if Halo 3 would break the record for highest grossing sales in a 24 hour period. Well, they pretty much shattered the mark. I believe it was Spiderman 3 that held the old record of something like $150 million, Halo 3 just opened with $170 million in the first 24 hours. That’s freakin’ ridiculous.

Week 3 in review
Yeah, yeah, this is pretty late in the week to just be getting to a review for the past week, but let’s be honest here, Halo 3 has a way of sorta interfering with, what you’d call, life.
Here’s my week 3 roundup

What will they think of next?
I figure this might as well become a series, that way I don’t have to come up with a new topic every time I want to share some cool link with you guys! Yay for laziness!
Anyway, I thought this was a good idea and if any of you are TV watchers, it might be handy. It’s called CAT (Calendar for TV). It’s a calendar that you can customize to only show your favorite shows, it gives you a quick synopsis about the show, you can adjust for your timezone, and even set it up for your own specific printer-friendly layout. I do most of my TV watching on DVD (except for Prison Break and after the little bit of “Back to You” that I caught last night, I might have to add that to the list) but this might be nice if you’re trying to track a bunch of shows.

Halo 3: The Review
Alright, I finally pulled myself away from Halo 3 long enough to give you a few quick blurbs for a review. The game definitely pulled through in a few areas, but I actually think they could have done better in a few others.
More after the jump.

Your order is on its way
Those were the beautiful 6 words that filled the subject line of the email I received from Best Buy a few hours ago. The best part is that I haven’t ordered anything from Best Buy since I pre-ordered Halo 3 almost 6 months ago. I knew that September 25 was the release date, and that it was just around the corner, but something about that warm, fuzzy email alerting me of all the awesome gaming I’m about to encounter just really filled me with glee. And I wanted to share that with you.
There, now that I’ve shared that glee, you may now return to your previously scheduled activities.
