Mega64 talks Mass Effect 2 sex censorship
Feb/100
We’re pretty sure that the new Mass Effect 2-centric video from Mega64 that you’ll find after the break is pretty funny. The crew seems to be grilling everyday citizens on censorship, specifically relating to all the xenofornication going down aboard the Normandy.
We say “pretty sure” and “seems” because … well, we can’t watch this sort of thing with the sound on because it makes us too uncomfortable. There, we said it out loud. That means we also have no idea if the language in the video is safe for work, since we can’t hear it. Let’s just play it safe and assume it’s not, OK?

Former EyeToy exec warns of the difficulties facing Natal, ‘Arc’
Feb/100
In a recent interview with GamesIndustry.biz, Jamie MacDonald, former Vice President of Sony Worldwide Studios (the company responsible for EyeToy), gave out a few pointers to Sony and Microsoft regarding their respective motion controllers. MacDonald warned that gamers are expecting more from the 360 and PS3’s motion gaming than they do from the Wii, due to both consoles’ beefier hardware. However, he also warned about implementing “traditional long-form gameplay,” lengthy sessions of which would leave players “completely knackered.”
MacDonald’s wisest words came when speaking about pricing the two pieces of hardware. He suggested they follow Sony’s strategy with EyeToy, where the peripheral and a piece of software came bundled for the price of a normal game, which kept consumers from “paying a premium for the hardware.” That’s a sweet thought, but it’s a little presumptive — after all, we’ve yet to hear a price for the two devices. (Hell, we haven’t even heard a name for one of them.)

Print Only Selected Areas of a Spreadsheet in Excel 2007 & 2010
Feb/100
Sometimes you might need to print out data contained in an Excel Spreadsheet, but printing out the entire thing is a waste. Today we show you how to print out only specific areas of the document that you need.
Open the Spreadsheet with the data you need and hold down the Ctrl key while highlighting the area of the document you want to print out.
Click the Page Layout tab on the Ribbon, then the Print Area button and Set Print Area…
?
While still under Page Layout click on Print Titles…
The Page Setup screen opens up and you’ll want to select the Sheet tab. From here type in the Columns and Rows that you want to repeat (if any) then click on Print Preview. This allows you to include any headers or labels associated with the data.
Now you’ll be able to preview the area you’ve selected and can print it out.
You can also select multiple areas of the spreadsheet. Just select another area and when you click on Print Area select Add to Print Area.
Then when you go into Print Preview you can page through the different areas you’ve selected.
The Print Areas will stay set until you clear them out. Just click on Print Area then select Clear Print Area.
This also works basically the same in Excel 2010, but when you select Print Preview, Backstage View opens and you can select your printing options from there.
This is a great way to save ink and paper if you only need to print out specific areas of a spreadsheet. Being able to include column headings and row labels is also nice so the data you print out makes more sense.

This Wednesday: Darwinia+ invades XBLA
Feb/100
The game features a single-player campaign, online multiplayer for four players and plenty of sweet, retro stylings. Taking cues from real-time strategy, god games and, oh, let’s say Tron, Darwinia has players controlling squads of 2D sprite characters called Darwinians as they battle an evil computer virus. The original PC version of the game took home the grand prize at the 2006 Independent Games Festival.
The price of admission is 1200
($15).

Mass Effect 2 remains atop UK charts, Dante debuts
Feb/100
Mass Effect 2 has maintained the top spot on Chart-Track’s UK all-formats sales chart for a second week in a row. However, there seems to be some kind of Batarian flu loose on the isles, because Mass Effect 2 sales, which dropped by 64 percent this week, were “within touching distance” (850 units, to be exact) of Wii’s Just Dance. Rounding out the unchanged top three for a second week was Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.
EA’s Dante’s Inferno had one hell of a premiere on the charts, earning a somewhat sinful spot at fourth. In a good sign for MAG, the mega shooter slipped only three notches to seventh place. Meanwhile, the surprise return of other BioWare game Dragon Age: Origins to the top 40 last week has gained even more momentum, moving up another three spots to 28th.

Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing demo and theme now on Xbox Live
Feb/100
We’ll be honest — we weren’t too interested in Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing when we first heard about it, but every time the publisher announces a new playable character, our desire to play the game intensifies. (For the record, Sega? You had us at Ryo Hazuki.)
We’ll definitely be trying out the new demo — released on Xbox Live today — which features Sonic and Banjo as playable racers on a sample track. To accompany the demo, Sega has also released an All-Stars Racing theme for 240
($3). However, we highly suggest checking to make sure the game’s any good before proudly tattooing your Dashboard background with its logo.
