New York Times declares Bad Company 2 better than Modern Warfare 2
There’s been an understandable amount of fence sitting in the debate over which shooter is better: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 or Battlefield: Bad Company 2.

No DS full game downloads available via the Wii
Apparently the New York Times needed to make one more correction in it’s latest story on the Nintendo DS and Wii.
