Subject: GameGossip�s Weekly Round-Up - 07/30/04

Introduction: Things finally appear to be back to normal as far as news goes, as this week was a humdinger (yes I just said that) of a week. One could argue it�s a hootenanny � but no matter how you slice it, it was good. Amongst other things, this week saw some somewhat cryptic and ultimately confusing comments on Xbox 2, EA acquiring Criterion, financial results from more than a few companies and everyone\'s favorite subject, videogames being blamed for violence in the news. As always, check out the hand picked pieces below.
