Morning News: Warhammer Sales, L4D System Specs, GTA 4 coming to Games For Windows Live, Xbox 360 Slim, Guitar Hero World Tour Copyright Police

I hope you guys enjoyed your weekend, things went pretty good here.  Had another solider fall to the darkside this weekend as my buddy got married this past weekend (Wadsworth1 on here).  Congrats to him and his wife, I wish you guys the best.  Time for the gaming news!


Warhammer seems to be doing pretty well at this point.  But we know after the AoC debacle that strong launches tend to me little.  Apparently 500,000 have registered to play the game online which a solid number out of the gate.

Valve has released the Left 4 Dead PC system requirements and they shouldn't be anything most of you have to worry about.  They are quite similar to the base Source Engine requirements (CS:S, Half Life 2) and if you can't cover that by now, quit PC gaming. 

Your hopes and dreams of creating of a note perfect version of Zeppelin's "Black Dog" on Guitar Hero: World Tour and sharing it with the world to enjoy are probably unrealistic, at least long term.  Activision will be on the hunt with and w/o content holders request pulling down songs that violate copyright. 

Is Grand Theft Auto IV on the PC the savior of "Games for Windows Live"?  Seems a bit early to deem it so, but the game could do quite well on the Microsoft platform.  Check out this piece at Wired and see all the requirements of the game on PC.

Tired of that boat anchor you call a console which RRODs all the time?  Some rumors out of India are nothing an Xbox 360 Slim is on the way.  Fact or fiction?  Probably fact, at least at some point.  I would expect them to shave the size down a bit, though maybe not quite this soon.  I will keep you guys posted.
