I picked up a copy of Company of Heroes for the PC today. I traded in a couple of old games and there was an additional discount on new games (EB struggling for sales of PC games?). I'm installing it now, so hopefully once the little one falls asleep I'll be able to try it out. :)
I installed the beta of Safari for Windows out of pure curiousity. It's a weird feeling! I wish Apple would release OSX for Intel PCs; I'd blow XP away in an instant. Or at least relegate it to dual boot for games. So far Safari is decent - I'm not seeing the raw performance that some people claim. My main complaint is that CTRL+BACKSPACE doesn't delete the previous word when typing this post. So far all sites I've visited looked good, though very reminiscent of Konqueror, which uses the same KHTML rendering engine. It failed to import my Firefox bookmarks, but I'll try that again. Let's see how it goes!

I just bought "Call Of Duty 3" for my Xbox360 and it's an amazing game. Graphics and sound are just awesome (truly cinematic). I came away from my first go with the game feeling shell shocked and exhausted like I'd been through the actual war myself.
I really enjoyed it - there are times I long for more realism, but overall it's a great game.
I always find RTSs difficult due to the micromanagement required, but on the whole this one isn't too bad. I do get lost sometimes with the number of units to look after but I usually can keep a handle on things.
If you can, I recommend playing it. I don't know if it's out for the 360 though. It does need a mouse due to all the clicking.
