War of the Roses is an interesting title, because it takes a few chances that generally pay off, makes use of perhaps one of the most popular gaming modes on the market right now, and feels like a game with some as of yet untapped potential. So what is War of the Roses? It is an online experience that feels to me like a Battlefield or Call of Duty game, but with swords and bows instead of rifles and machine guns.

Well, I definitely got some gaming in over the weekend. That was the good news. The bad news? My son may have picked up something very not cool on my PC at home. This morning there was some annoying error message about how my PC couldn't be verified and I'd have to reinstall Win 7, which is obviously pretty shady to begin with, but on top of that most of the functions on it are now running doggedly slow.

You're going to want to see the error up on your computer.
Considering how little I use that PC lately, he didn't even try brushing it off as something someone else might have done. For about the last 3 months, it's been 95% him. Amusingly, I did use it some Saturday, but only for a pair of Steam games. So, I suspect I'll be spending some time this evening trying to smooth THAT mess out. So I'm plugging this article together on a far less effective laptop for the time-being.
So, how about those games this weekend?
