Halo Reach Brick Steel  Spartan Action Figure from McFarlane Toys

Halo tends to blow the doors off of some various statistics with every release that Bungie has set down.  The Halo: Reach video game is no different.

Since its release, after merely one week of being on the market Halo: Reach recorded 98 million player games were recorded.  From those 98 million players games,

  • 953 years were spent in match-made games while
  • 1,365 years were spent in campaign mode.

That’s over 2,000 years of game play in a mere week! And through it all, a mere 4.6 million files were downloaded.

Spike 2010 SCREAM AWARDS

The Spike TV SCREAM Awards is an event that honors the  best in different categories of entertainment.  The nominees that are selected for the different categories of the SCREAM Awards are chosen by what looks to me, to be a highly qualified advisory board that includes Tim Burton, John Carpenter, Wes Craven, Damon Lindelof, Ridley Scott, Quentin Tarantino & Joss Whedon.

What I like about the SCREAM Awards is that once nominated by the advisory board, it’s up to you, the fans, to vote.  That takes out the ever evil politicing factor out of the equation and we see real winners.

Kick-Ass

The movie with the most nominations looks to be Kick-Ass (17),

Inception Teaser Poster 1

Inception (15) &

But the problem is that this last year is stacked with some wonderful films.
