More Gifts for Gamers
So, our gaming coverage in the print edition wasn't enough for you. We understand. Luckily, we have more where that came from. Below we review A Boy and His Blob, WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2010, and Axel & Pixel. All three have kid appeal but only two might be appropriate for the pre-teen or single-digit aged.

Feast Your Eyes on This
SXSW Film first tipped its hand last month by unveiling a brand-spanking-new award for excellence in Title Design. Eyeing the latest batch of 2010 panels to be announced, I think it's safe to say it: SXSW Film has a serious jones for the visual arts.

This Week's Waste of Time
It's time for part 2 of what's looking like a six-part series covering the entrants in the competition category of the Independent Games Festival. Luckily we have until March, but I think I can get this done sometime in mid-December. Last week we covered entries 1 through 50. Aiming for consistency, I'll sift through entries 50 through 100 this week.

News Corp. fans take on the evils of Sesame Street
 
Fox Versus Grouch
Pity poor Fox News. Not only are those poor, defenseless wretches being bullied by those nasty White House socialists, but now Sesame Street is ganging up on them.

Longhorns, It's Time for Your Close-Up
A few days after the Texas Longhorns defense, if not its offense, manhandled Oklahoma State 41-14, I went to the set of the television show The Deep End, an ABC lawyer drama/comedy shooting in Dallas, and it clicked for me: it’s all about attitude from here on out.

This Week's Waste of Time
Oh, it's a season thick with time wastability. The Independent Games Festival – set to pop off in March of next year in San Francisco – announced the entrants in the competition category. That means a record 306 video games by indie developers just waiting to be played. This is going to take a few weeks people.
