Published on

Here's the audio:
[audio:https://assets.vg247.com/current//2011/03/031711bulletin_mixdown.mp3|titles=031711bulletin_mixdown]And here's the motherfucking breakdown:
- Homefront sold 375,000 units in its first day on sale in the US, although THQ suffered stock jitters this week based on some middling reviews.
- Mass Effect 2 won the Best Game BAFTA in London last night. Heavy Rain won three awards. Red Dead Redemption won nothing, as Rockstar chose not to enter it.
- Steam Guard's launched. It's a protection system for Steam that Valve announced at GDC.
- Activision has been given the go-ahead to sue EA, Jason West and Vince Zampella for $400 million.
- EA said yesterday that 1.5 million people have signed up to beta test Star Wars: The Old Republic.
That's it. We all win.
