Out Today: Resident Evil 5
Resident Evil 5 is finally here. It's hard to believe it's been four years since RE4 came out on the GameCube, jarringly taking the series out of the "survival-horror" genre, and steering it more towards what it has now fully become with RE5: a bloody zombie action game with a twinge of hammy Hollywood thrown in. Gone is the quiet creepiness from the PS1 original, in favor of more solid mechanics, a great targeting system and all around more action.
To help you mow over all the zombies in your wake, we're building out a full Resident Evil 5 walkthrough over at Mahalo.com. One of the main things you'll find in our guide, is the locations of all of the BSAA Emblems. These collectible items are needed in order to unlock some of the extra content, like the unlockable costumes (one in particular of Sheva, her "Tribal" costume, makes her way naked'er). Also, there's unlockable characters which can be obtained by getting good end-level grades. Remember Jill and Wesker? They're back.
Additionally, we'll be cranking out gameplay videos full of explosions and rocket launchers over at MahaloGaming.com in our Resident Evil 5 videos category.

2009 Oscars Coverage
You may call it the Oscars, but I call it "A Beautiful, Lengthy Preview for Films I Have Not Seen." The Wrestler? Didn't see it. Benjamin Button? Could do it. Don't know why. Tropic Thunder I think is the only Oscar movie I saw this year, and Robert Downey Jr. did that almost by accident. Almost all of these other films, they fell off my radar. I was not a hip film-goer this year for whatever reason.
Luckily we're all over this at Mahalo.com, helping to keep us all in know for the big awards show this weekend. Here's a look at our category.
Oh I did see Slumdog also.

Shor-u-kan haz Street Fighter 4
This brings back the good ol' days. Which for me means the early '90s, the SNES console. It blew my mind that you could play an arcade game (which I dumped shovelfulls of quarters into week after week) in your home.
Now that wow-factor has faded, but what remains is simply great memories playing this game with friends. It possesses that special quality that few games can achieve. Games like Tony Hawk, Mario Kart, even Halo to an extent. It has widespread "I will kick your ass while we're all having fun" quality.
It will be difficult for Capcom to mess this one up. I'm looking forward to teaching my girlfriend to play.

I will never fly again
Whether it be by birds, ice, engine failure or terrorists, all manner of evil devices are waging war on the American airplane. They say when people notice things like this that it's just a cluster of media coverage. Really? I think it's more likely that it's a cabal of birds, ice and terrorists who've had just about enough of us and our flying this way and that.
Continental Flight 3407 crashed into a freaking house yesterday near Buffalo, New York, killing 49 people. This happened yesterday, February 12, 2009. One person who was in the house died. Image that for a moment, being in that house.
Also very sad, Beverly Eckert, widow of Sean Rooney (who died in one of the 9/11 planes) was reportedly on Flight 3407 and died.
We'll bring you more news on the crash as we have it.

Grammys 2009 Mania
The Grammys are upon us, and over at Mahalo.com we're pulling out all the stops for our coverage of the performances, award announcements, fashion, etc.
We'll even have live coverage during the event on Sunday, February 8.
I sure am glad Radiohead is performing, and a few others like Paul McCartney and Robert Plant, because I think I actually hate everyone else associated with the show. Sorry to be negative but it's as though they have purposfully collected musicians I dislike. Kid Rock? Kanye West? Justin Timberlake? Jonas Brothers? And they're all performing. Is this the VMAs or the Grammys, I'm lost.
UPDATE: Sorry I just did some research. It appears the Grammys has always sucked. In 2000, the best new artist was Christina Aguilara (who narrowly beat out Britney Spears). Boy they had their finger right on the pulse there. Best album went to Santana, and best video went to Korn. The Grammys this year actually looks pretty solid, come to think of it.

No Hot Wings this Super Bowl, but plenty of commercials
There is a national economic crisis on our hands this Sunday: there is a shortage of hot wings. Apparently, the price of chicken has sky-rocketed, while the intensified demand for delicious, ranch-dipped wings has increased in the days leading up to the Super Bowl, leading to a nationwide shortage. We never think the economy is going to give us a backhanded slap across the face like that.
What there is no shortage of this Super Bowl Sunday, though, is commercials. We've been building pages out on all of the 2009 Super Bowl commercials for your viewing enjoyment, and we're nearly done. Here is our list of pages so far.
