There has been a lot of buzz in the video game industry about the new release of the new version of the Grand Theft Auto IV game launch, even being coined as “potentially record breaking” from a few top industry insiders.
While I know many of you have been chomping at the bit to get your mits on the game, it’s finally here and on the final day of release just days ago, has successfully broken the Guiness record for the “Highest Revenue Generated By an Entertainment Product in 24 Hours.” While I knew Guinness has all kinds of insane records (see former post about giant backgammon board in England..),
I still am caught aback at the 3.6 million unit sales earning 310 million dollars in the first day of release! Wow! Followed closely behind were the favorite games we all know and love: = Fastest-selling video game in 24 hours: Halo 3 at $170 million = Fastest-selling theatrical movie in 24 hours: Spider-Man 3 at $60 million = Fastest-selling book in 24 hours: Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows at $220 million As we are rapidly seeing the video game and home entertainment business growing and expanding, one can only wonder what lies in store for game lovers in the future.
Congratulations to the Grand Theft Auto IV at winning their name in the big book of records, and all of you enjoying the game, I’m sure they thank you for helping them break that barrier.

Microsoft powerhouse made offers to buy out Yahoo in whole, but dropped bids after ultimatums and warnings that they would pull bids if a decision couldn’t be reached. While many of us wondered if Microsoft was actually going to pull the plug, I for one was pleased that they did and displayed some authority over their statements regarding business transactions.
Not to say that Microsoft has been wishy-washy in the past, but I am pleased to see them sticking to their guns rather than making idle threats like so many other large company moguls do. The original buyout bid was 33 million dollars placed on May 3, 2008, but was dropped when negotiations came to a stand still.
Carl Icahn, a third party billionaire has announced just recently that if Microsoft and Yahoo can not reach an agreement he will launch his own proxy and place bids to acquire Yahoo himself! Carl Icahn himself and his team of shareholders hold over 2.5 billion dollars in shares while Icahn claims that he has additionally acquired an additional 59 million shares earlier this week!
While Microsoft appears to have “moved on” after the recent struggle with the company, new talks of partnership are milling in the rumor bin. Yahoo has stated that they would not sell the entire asset and company in whole to Microsoft but rather work on some other sort of agreement/partnership between the two companies.
While many officials are saying that Microsoft is attempting a desperate plea to aquire Yahoo to try and trump their arch-rival Google, I myself am not sure what the masterminds behind the “M” network have cooking behind closed doors. No guarantees have been made that anything will come of these new negotiations, but my instincts tell me that something big will be changing soon.
In an attempt to stall Google’s world domination, they have released Microsoft Office Live which has thus far been buggy and still trailing far behind Google aps and innovations placed to the public in 2007. Microsoft has even gone as far as holding contests for large amounts of money and prizes for special Live users, including the XBOX Elite, Zunes, and other miscellaneous items. Microsoft claims that thousands have already signed up for the beta program, but the numbers aren’t in and my hunch is that this may be a gross miscalculation.
Executives at Microsoft worry that if they do not reach an agreement with Yahoo, Carl Icahn and his associate shareholders will turn and make subsequent agreements with Google and further push Microsoft out of the top spot in the race to the top of the Internet Marketplace. Many blame the widespread popularity and user friendly ultimate Google machine for spurring this sudden hostile attempt from Microsoft to take over Yahoo. While I think they had a good idea initially in making a move to keep up with their competitors, the timing seems to be a little off and the Google vs Microsoft slap fight has got Yahoo stuck right in the middle.
I’m speechless. I can’t make a prediction as to which way the dice will roll if it would save my soul. Any guesses?

The one thing we’ve learned from American Idol this season is that the show isn’t about singing as much as it’s about songs. As in, choosing the one that’s edgy without being alienating, popular without being tired, inspirational without being cheesy. A mediocre contestant like Kristy Lee Cook scored with a syrupy ballad like ”God Bless the U.S.A.” because it galvanized the patriotic vote. Early front-runner Carly Smithson was booted after singing a strong rendition of ”Jesus Christ Superstar,” perhaps because the song offended some Christian voters.
”We talk about song choice because we’re trying to hammer into their heads that a good song tells the audience who you are,” says judge Simon Cowell, who has harped on song selection this season more than ever before (and that’s saying something). So then, who are finalists David Archuleta, Jason Castro, Syesha Mercado, and David Cook? EW spent two days of rehearsals with the top four (as well as now-eliminated Brooke White) at the Idol production offices in West Hollywood, and got a unique view of how and why they chose the songs they did for Neil Diamond Week. Since season 5, contestants have not been allowed to perform the same song on the same night, so the selection competition is fierce. And what happens when two people want the same tune? If one person does not voluntarily bow out, they are forced into an Idol tiebreaker of pulling the desired song title out of a hat — both scenarios that played out during Neil Diamond Week. ”I’ve had people going into fetal positions over song choice,” says vocal coach Debra Byrd. ”The judges say song choice, song choice, song choice constantly, so they’re in agony all week over it.” Sure enough, some contestants angsted. Others ignored suggestions. Some made calculated moves based on what Simon might like. Others procrastinated learning the lyrics. And one paid the ultimate price with her ouster

Microsoft may no longer be breathing down its neck, but Yahoo is still working on major deals with Google and Time Warner’s AOL that could significantly alter the Internet pioneer.
The nearer-term possibility is a partnership to use Google for delivering some ads next to Yahoo search results. That option apparently is still on track to be announced this week, perhaps Wednesday or Thursday, according to a source familiar with the situation.
The Google deal could increase Yahoo’s revenue, because Google gets more revenue per click for its ads, but it also could reinforce Google’s search-ad leadership and make it even harder for Yahoo to catch up with its own Panama system. And though Yahoo thinks it can address antitrust concerns by employing a system that’s open to other ad suppliers as well, regulatory scrutiny is a significant factor.
A deal to acquire AOL also is under active consideration, although talks haven’t progressed as far as with the Google arrangement, the source said. Under that deal, Yahoo would get AOL, sans its declining Internet access subscription business, and cash from Time Warner, and Time Warner would get a 20 percent stake in Yahoo.
Yahoo would use the cash to buy back its own stock, a move that could increase its value. Since most observers expect Yahoo’s price to drop Monday because Microsoft walked away, Yahoo likely will face pressure to boost its share price.
Another possibility Yahoo explored was a partnership with Fox Interactive, but that didn’t progress as far as the Time Warner deal, the source said.
Yahoo declined to comment on the possibilities.
