One bit of news in this Kotaku interview with the person who I assume is Ari Arad (it says Avi, but then it says he's 33 and that his father is Avi, so I assume the interviewee is actually producer and former Marvel movie chief Avi Arad's son Ari, who works for him): That his company is producing a movie based on Sony's PS3 game "Uncharted."

Variety has written in the past that Avi Arad Productions is working on "Everquest" (already set up at Sony Pictures, "300" scribe Michael Gordon writing a script), "Lost Planet" (to be distributed by Warner Bros., David Hayter currently writing a script) and "Mass Effect" (no studio yet). But the Kotaku story also mentions "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune," which I didn't know Arad has also optioned. No info on any talent or studio being attached. But there's one more project in the burgeoning Arad videogame-to-movie slate.

GameDaily also has an interview with Stuart Beattie, who wrote the first draft of the "Gears of War" script for New Line, about the spec script he wrote for "Halo." However, since it hasn't been approved by Microsoft, let alone set up with a producer or studio, it's currently nothing more than a fan's dream, albeit a talented and well connected fan.

I always heard something from my neighbor that he sometimes goes to the internet bar to play the game which will use him some gw gold，he usually can win a lot of GuildWars Gold，then he let his friends all have some Guild Wars Gold，his friends thank him very much for introducing them the GuildWars money，they usually cheap gw gold together.
