On Thursday February 17, 2010 MAG will receive its second update since its release. This update fixes some things in the background, as always, but it also fixes a few problems with the gameplay. The primary fix for this patch that interests me, because it was so annoying, is fixing the resuscitation icon over players heads who only had the med kit. The update also focuses on a few other small tweaks. Read more for the update.

If you listen to the Generation X podcast or caught some of the CES coverage I pulled out of my ear, you know that I'm not the biggest Heavy Rain fan.
I get what the developer is going for. I just don't think it's for me and believe the novelty of the "gameplay" won't keep me interested past what the demo gives us.
But something happened Saturday night that has me thinking about buying the game. My wife asked about it. Read more to find out why having a wife/girlfriend/boyfriend/mom who likes games can sometimes save you from yourself.

I just got word last night that you can download Flow free from the PSN store for a limited time. The download is set to revert back to its paid version at midnight Eastern time so if you haven't already purchased this game, give it a try, it free! Flow is actually the predecessor to Flower and both games were developed by thatgamecompany and was released in February 2007. The game is pretty cool on its own merits in my opinion, but being free makes it even more cool. Get it while you can!
