Britney Spears Returns to David Letterman Tonight

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Late Night, Talk Shows, CBS, Gossip, Video,

Whenever Britney Spears and David Letterman get together, something newsworthy eventually happens. So what should we expect from her Top Ten reading this evening?

In the past, Spears’ appearances have coincided with big moments in her life. During her May 2006 visit to Late Night (posted above), the pop star confirmed she was pregnant with her second child. The day after her November 2006 stop (you can see that clip after the jump), she filed for divorce from Kevin Federline.

It’s been almost three years now since Britney’s last chat with Dave—could she possibly have something new to offer us? You might want to set your Tivo just in case…

Jessica King of So You Think You Can Dance

At least she can say she made it to the finals…

After narrowly beating out Comfort last week for a spot in the Top Ten, So You Think You Can Dance‘s Jessica King is having to give up her spot to Comfort.

Producer/judge Nigel Lythgoe told reporters today that an unfortunate injury has sidelined the redhead for approximately four to five weeks. This means Comfort Fedoke will get at least one more chance to demonstrate her obvious lack of training.

More details on Jessica’s injury will be revealed on this week’s episode. In the meantime, you can review Jessica’s last contemporary piece with Will after the jump:

Top Ten: Halo 2 for Vista Improvements

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorial, Features, Microsoft, Software, Video Games,

So, Halo 2 for Windows Vista is launching on May 8, 2007, and we have been able to spend some time reviewing the title. Since everyone is familiar with Halo 2, we felt a full review wasn’t in order. Instead, we wanted to clue you in on the ten best improvements we experienced while reviewing the game. These ten features raise the bar for Halo as a whole, and may be a foreshadowing of things to come in Halo 3:

Achievements: If you are looking for something fun that adds another level of fun and challenge to the Halo 2 world, this is it. We have said it before, and we will say it again - Microsoft hit a gold mine with the notion of achievements. No sooner than when we finished a multiplayer deathmatch did we rack up a total of three achievements. Meleeing five people from behind (and thusly earning the Ninja achievement) was nice, but Meleeing someone who already had the Ninja achievement (and thus earning the Flaming Ninja achievement) was even better. We have the achievement to prove it. For those wondering, yes, the achievements you earn in Halo 2 for Vista (or any other Games for Windows game) is counted towards your Xbox Gamerscore.

DS Software Takes Every Spot On Japanese Top Ten

Posted by Christopher Sasaki Categories: Culture, Nintendo DS,

DS Black The Media Create software sales numbers for the past week in Japan have been released, and every single title in the top 10 was for the Nintendo DS. A posting on the NeoGAF forums has the translated software titles. As expected, the Nintendo DS Final Fantasy III remake debuted in first place, with over 500,000 units sold. New Super Mario Bros. continues to run up sales as well, taking second place. The two Brain Age titles made the list, as well as the unusual Cooking Navi. In hardware sales, the DS Lite again dominated, running up 163,274 units sold versus the PSP’s 29,945 in second place. The Playstation 2 is still selling respectable numbers, while the Xbox 360 just can’t seem to catch on. Still, having the entire top ten software sales go to the Nintendo DS is just unprecedented.
