News of the Week!

Its been a pretty crazy week and I hope to start posting daily but for now I'll settle with a recap of all the news stories that caught my attention this week.

Scientists create densest matter ever at the LHC

Scientists at the large hadron collider in Switzerland have created a quark gluon plasma simulating the material of the universe in the first between 10^–12 second and 10^–6 seconds after the Big Bang. This is the heaviest material ever discovered with just one cubic centimeter weighing 40 billion tons! It just amazes me that we are little more than monkeys clinging to the side of a rock in this vast universe and we have managed to understand and replicate up to seconds before the creation of our very universe. Imagine what we will be able to do in the future as we and our technology continues to evolve.

Oooh Wii U... Killer Tofu! E3 Extravaganza!

I'm just going to run over the highlights of the big 3 and what I'm most excited about because I don't have a lot of time.

Sony

• Vita looks really cool and priced competitively
• Uncharted 3 is shaping up to be one of the best single and multiplayer experiences of the year
• Hope for the Last Guardian but the Ico/Shadow of the Colossus collection looks amazing

Microsoft

• I'm really jealous of the new cable system, live UFC sounds like a good idea
• Little short on the game front but I am going to find a way to play halo remake. Blood Gulch is back baby!

Wii U

This isn't a bad thing, finally going HD was smart but now that I've heard that there will only be one controller to every system and everyone else uses wiimotes a lot of the multiplayer potential is really gone.

3 Games I am getting a midnight release of..

Batman: Arkham City

Skyrim

Uncharted 3

The internet company that started the news feed cluttering facebook crack farmville and mafia wars are set to go public soon and I'm thinking about buying my first stock. Their newest game Empires and Allies I'm sure will be a big hit and I feel like now would be a good time to get in and ride that initial wave of investment.

Heard anything cool this week? Have a favorite of e3? Sound off in the comments like you got a pair!
