New Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Trailers

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:08:19 +0000

If you haven't seen them yet, then you need to take a moment and look at the newly released Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 trailers, you can view then at the official web site here (modernwarfare2.com). Be sure to grab a couple wallpapers while you're there!

On November 10, 2009, Infinity Ward's Modern Warfare 2 will strike worldwide. The most-anticipated game of the year and the sequel to the best-selling first-person action game of all time, Modern Warfare 2 continues the gripping and heart-racing action as players face off against a new threat dedicated to bringing the world to the brink of collapse.

I suggest that if you'd like to play the game on release day, that you strongly consider pre-ordering this one... it won't last long in game stores. I'll be on Xbox 360 and PC. Which platform will you be playing CoD: Modern Warfare 2 on? (PC, PS3 or Xbox 360) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Mobilized will also be released on the same day for the Nintendo DS.

How to view ALL friend updates on the new Facebook

Mon, 26 Oct 2009 07:34:40 +0000

Facebook recently made some changes to the way they display news updates from your friends. No longer are displays from all of your friends included, in fact, they have it setup as a default to only display updates from 250 friends, even though the friend limit is still 5,000. I would assume this was done to decrease load on their servers. Unfortunately, it also impacts a Facebook user's ability to stay virtually connected to each other, since you can't readily see all updates without manual intervention. Well, there is a pretty simple change you can make to display the news updates from all of your Facebook friends... here's how you do it. Read more...
