It’s been rumored for quite some time that Netflix’s instant streaming service is coming to Nintendo Wii. At this this years Consumer Electronics Show CES 2010 in last vegas. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings said that the chances of Netflix supporting Nintendo are “EXCELLENT”
Another so called Rumor that’s been swiring around the internet is that Nintendo are planning on releasing the Wii HD, Nintendo’s followup/upgrade to the Wii. Now we have to sit and wait and see what will happen. Will Netflix only be made available on the new Wii HD console or both.
The great thing is if Netflix can get this working on both the Wii and the Wii HD then there will be a lot of happy Wii owners out there that wont have to upgrade to take advantage of watching movies in the comfort of their own living rooms.
Now all we need is NETFLIX to come to AUSTRALIA and us Aussies will also be happy 😉

So here we are 2 months in MW2, and where are we going with it?
After numerous glitches and patches released, guns nerfed, alot of swearing online, alot of OMG moments, alot of bullshit moments, what is in store for us MW2 devotees?
Well the matchmatching fixes, where are they???? For those of you that say it doesn’t make a difference whether you have 2 yellow bars or 4 green bars.. try it yourself – there is a massive amount of difference.
PC and PS3 users already have the fix, supposedly IW have sent the fix to MS for approval last year, we are still waiting.
Other exploits have also been brought to Infinity Ward’s attention. The care package marker run like the 6 million dollar man? Stab people at will with Commando perk on, use it on CTF (Capture The Flag) to score points easily. Infinity Ward’s @FourZeroTwo, Robert Bowling has said that Infinity Ward are looking at it, but will anything change?
Seeing as the Xbox has been hacked, and the game files can be tampered with, people have been finding some nice hidden extras on the game disk. One of those is a game type called Thermonuclear War, have a look at the Youtube video below.
Are we going to expect this in the recently announced DLC coming later this year? Why do we have to pay for this stuff if it is already on the disk? There is also another game mode called VIP, don’t have many details on this one yet.
What else can we expect on the DLC? Most probably new maps – the ones we have now tend to get a bit boring being played all the time. New guns? Doubt it.

Official Press Release from Com2us: (fantatic news for Android users)
January 5, 2010 — Com2uS, a leading game developing company for the iPhone App Store, has announced the release of Homerun Battle 3D onto the Android Market. The game was released on the Android Market late December 2009 as one of the newest assets to Google’s smart phone content store. For any of you who have yet to try Homerun Battle 3D, it is a visually stunning homerun derby game where players try to hit as many home runs as possible. The game contains four unique modes: Classic, Arcade, Training, and Matchup mode. In Matchup mode, players can challenge their friends and rivals to head-to-head online battle via Wi-Fi or 3G. Intuitively simple tilt and touch controls allow the player to adjust the direction of the contact point and swing the bat, respectively. Although it may seem like a sports heavy game, it has been designed for casual gamers of all ages and genders.
Android players vs. iPhone players
One of the most interesting features that Homerun Battle 3D has done, which no other Android game has done, is that it is able to link players from different devices. A player running the game off the iPhone can challenge a player who has the game on an Android device. With close to 400,000 registered users on Com2uS’ server, there is more than enough competition for new Android players. This new feature removes the restriction of the user’s device and broadens the user’s online enjoyment.
Homerun Battle 3D’s expected success
Com2uS has seen great success for Homerun Battle 3D on the iPhone/iPod Touch. With months of popularity on the Top Grossing Apps, Homerun Battle 3D has been honored as one of the best iPhone sports games of 2009 by IGN.com and Toucharcade.com. The game has been seen in Apple’s iPod Touch commercials around the world and is now receiving large amounts of interest from Google, who have planned to promote the game in its Featured section.
