Watch this, then message me your Battle.net tag if you want to team up to battle the forces of evil!
Coffee & Multitasking v.96
1. KONY CAMPAIGN CAUSES RIOT [AcholiTimes]
Invisible Children screened their viral video in the Ugandan town of Gulu…needless to say the locals weren’t fond of having their lives summed in that fashion. Many injured, one killed.
2. NO ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT FOR CANADA [NationalPost]
The 4th Season will not be available on Netflix to anyone outside of the US :( we’ll have to wait for the DVD…

4. TOP 50 AVENGERS [IGN]

HALO 4: FIRST OFFICIAL PREVIEW
Finally, finally! Later this year it drops, and I like that they’re starting early…
My Thoughts: I like where 343 is going with this. It will be important to remember that this isn’t Bungie’s game, but it takes place within their universe. I’m not a fan of the new helmet (I thought the orange bubble was very characteristic of Chief) but I like that they’ve decided to make it more “workable” in order for MC to feel more like a superhero and less like a regular soldier. And I’m ecstatic about Multiplayer having somewhat of a story behind it, that’s unheard of! I’ve heard that this is focused on the ForeRunners, which is perfect. The only thing bigger than the Flood is their creators :)
It will be nice to jump back into Master Chief’s story, after spending so many years as other Spartans and regular soldiers. He’s what made it compelling, he grips you, and he keeps this monster of a franchise going.
CES’12: DAY1
There’s definite signs of trends at this years Consumer Electronics Show…
1. PROJECT FIONA [Gizmodo] [IGN]
It’s like a tablet with two Wii-motes attached to it. It can run “Space Marine” beautifully, and might be the only reason I use a Windows device.

Hands on [here]
What is it [here]

Coffee & Multitasking v.85
1. WALKING DEAD SEASON3 [amc.com]
Two episodes into the sophomore season, highest ratings in cable history, do you really need anymore proof that this is the best show ever?
2. *UPDATED* TOP25 [IGN]
IGN decided to update their files a little bit, and for once I actually agree with the standings.

IGN's Top50 Sci-fi Shows << click
Something for my fellow holiday-celebrating Canadians, to chillax with on your day off. And for myself, I now have a personal challenge of watching all of these series! I’m in the middle of Caprica, after that I’m thinking…V…or Farscape?
DEAD ISLAND
This…is one of the craziest trailers I have ever seen.
This game has been in the rumor mill for three years now, but it looks like it will finally see the light of day this year! Think of it as…Far Cry + WoW + L4D
It’s an FPS zombie game, that takes place over an entire resort island. The catch, it’s entirely realistic, in the sense that you wouldn’t find stockpiles of guns ‘n ammo lying around a resort right? The player must fend off hordes of undead-vacationers, while leveling their player and building their talent trees in order to learn new ways to decapitate, smash, bludgeon, and survive…
After you watch the trailer a few…hundred times…check out IGN’s full coverage:

Coffee & Multitasking v.54
1. Big Day for Apple
Steve Jobs has sadly re-admitted himself into healthcare, which has caused Apple’s stock to drop 4%. Hopefully this leave won’t be as dramatic as last time, but I can’t help but think “What will happen to the company when he finally does leave?”

2. Golden Globes 2011
Did you SEE Ricky Gervais’ opening monologue??? I love when British comedians host American events; Hollywood stars always end up crying :P Apparently he’s been banned from anything involving the HFPA (which means nothing he stars in will ever win a Globe)

3. IGN Unveils their ‘Best of 2010’ 4. Fan-Made Awesomeness
» click here
Check out this new LOST short film, that takes place after Season6 AND it was filmed on the actual location (in Hawai) where the show was shot.
Ever wondered what “Starcraft” would be like as an MMO? A couple of fanboys have actually created a mod that allows you to control an Alliance soldier and run raids on Kerrigan!

QUESTION:
What do you think of Gervais’ performance at the Golden Globes? Was he too crass, did he go over the top?
IGN Shows us What's Coming up in TV << click
Shows like Parks and Rec and V return, along with stars like Summer Glau and some of the cast of Friends.
What are YOU watching?
With The Walking Dead over I’m reigniting my love for BSG by going through the short-lived series Caprica.

1. IGN’s ‘Best of 2010’ Awards
I don’t agree with everything, but, that doesn’t mean these guys don’t know what their talking about. I wonder; should I do my own ‘best of’ this year???
