Here are a few things I missed while debating the merits of Star Trek Cosplay:

• Allstate to offer discounts for gamers,hopefully they haven't seen me drive in GTA IV
• KOTOR MMO announcement incoming?  Time to start stocking up on mountain dew and vacation days
• Take Two off the selling block, going to go it alone for now
• R2 is looking for a few good beta testers...must have a PS3 and like shooters
• October is going to be a very good month for gamers, very hard month for reviewers
• Microsoft's expensive wireless device fee strikes again
• More free PC games available on FileFront including Full Spectrum Warrior
• Fracture folks talk about the joys of solid middleware, it's more interesting than it sounds
• Gamecock talks about how last year sucked, Legendary and Velvet Assassin should help that in the coming months
• You'll be able to watch Richard Garriott as he flies in space...that's right Lord British in Spaaaaaaaaaace. 
• Prince of Persia moving to get the "Pirates treatment"....no Johnny Depp though
• What to expect from E for All, here's a hint...no much
• Diablo III will have a checkpoint system, go ahead and complain, it won't do any good
• Blizzard successfully completes raid on bot maker, gets fat loot
