$2,000 Call of Duty: World at War weekly roundup
$2,000 CoD:WW Map Pack 1 tournament. Registration OPEN March 19 to May 17.

PS3
If you've been following the Call of Duty: World at War Map Pack 1 tournament here on GGL, you'll know that we saw a big shakeup last week.
Unfortunately one of the server chimps in our server room slipped on a banana peel and reset the competition.
Oddly enough, many of the top teams from before the reset have risen close to the top of the heap again. That's good news, data loss notwithstanding. We'll make sure it never happens again, so here are your standings for this week:

Solid Snake opens a movie studio
Okay, so it's not Solid Snake, but it is David Hayter, the voice and real life doppelganger of Solid Snake. Close enough.
Variety reports that Hayter (who co-wrote the X-Men and Watchmen movies, by the way) just founded Dark Hero Studios along with producer Benedict Carver. The studio focuses on action, horror, and sci-fi entertainment across several different mediums: Games, movies, and TV.
According to Carver, "David will create, write and direct movies and TV series for the company, but he'll also be a magnet for other writers and directors to work with us."

Both beta’s of Internet Explorer 9 and Mozilla Firefox 4 already support hardware acceleration, however it’s a new feature in Google Chrome 7. The main point of hardware acceleration is to make browsing faster, safer and more stable. Instead of the CPU, the GPU on the videocard will perform the calculations, and in result it should be much faster. Though it’s used in other browsers, it seems that currently Google Chrome is the only one which has this feature working on Windows XP, so basically it …
