6. "G4: The Movie."
Morgan Webb and Adam Sessler will be immortalized in this cable network film about two crazy kids reading unfunny things off of teleprompters, co-starring a monkey and Rob Schneider. The New York Times calls it "A road movie that never quite gets on the road." Thanks, NY Times.
5. Bethesda Softworks announces first downloadable content for Fallout 3.

She said no. Then some guy came running by. He ran around checking all the trash cans and opening boxes. He was very odd. When he got a little too close, I gave chase. I followed him into the next room. All of a sudden, this turret started shooting at me. And this guy is lobbing grenades at my feet. Man, times like this I seriously consider going back to school, maybe getting a degree in something useful this time. Or maybe H&R Block would hire me, and I could do people's taxes..." <
