The update starts with some game demos for Hot Shots Golf Out of Bounds and Top Spin 3. Both boring sports to watch but fun to play, right?

I’ll need to play it so I can learn the rules of the game, then maybe I can put up a fighting chance against the 10 year olds that go to the school where I play. Download the demo right now from the Xbox Live Marketplace.
After all of that “Hot Coffee” mess that Take Two went through for hiding those sexually explicit scenes in Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, it turns out most people really didn’t care that much after all. After the lawyer, Seth Lesser, worked out a settlement of $5 to those offended or $35 if you still had the receipt, only 2,676 people participated in the class action lawsuit, resulting in basically a dud of a case. Way to go scum (Seth) of the earth, at least you still get paid, right? Just not as much.

According to Ben Borth, the games producer at Sierra, “He made so much money off of Honey I Shrunk the Kids that he retired. He just doesn’t want to work anymore.” Well, that just plain sucks doesn’t it? Oh well.
Another screenshot has surfaced from the long-awaited game, Duke Nukem Forever. This little tiny photo popped up on the 3D Realms website as a part of a “help wanted” posting for new developers. I sure wish there was more info about this game already, but I suppose this is just going to have to do for now.
