It seems like every publisher with a stockholder decided to report their profits (or lack thereof) today. Besides that, we had the departure of a long-standing LucasArts developer and the arrival of zombie Michael Jackson's understudy. Even with all of that craziness, a few stories remain, and they have a home here in today's daily stale bread.

Will: ATV just got a whole lot more metal, yo.
Dave: MMA Supremacy, the overblown metalness of your trailer has been surpassed.
