Swedish development house Keldyn Interactive was cutting it close, but managed to clinch a last-minute win for “best game title heard this week.” That title would be Dead Meets Lead , the name for its upcoming top-down shooter for PC in which players take on hordes of — wait for it — the undead. This one looks to have a pretty neat twist, though, as it’s set in the year 1716 — the period leading up to the American Revolution — and casts players as a gruff, white-wig-wearing British captain stranded on a zombie-infested island with only a sword and custom blunderbuss with which to fend the creeps off.

PC gamers may have noticed their collective Spidey senses tingling earlier this week, as Activision quietly announced that the PC version of Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions would not be releasing alongside its console counterparts. According to the launch press release , the PC version will arrive “soon.” Speaking to Big Download , an Activision rep revealed that “soon” apparently means later this year.

There might be a tiny bit of upheaval up at the peaks of Nokia management today, but that doesn’t mean we all need to stand around looking serious and forecasting who’ll leverage what synergies in order to actuate the requisite paradigmatic shift in the company’s device portfolio.

To the last person on Earth (that reads this site) who can’t already stream Netflix to their home theater in at least four different ways: if you have a 2010 Panasonic HDTV or Blu-ray player your sometime is now, as the video streaming widget originally promised way back during CES should have recently shown up in a software update. You’ll find it in the VIERA Cast menu next to existing tools like Amazon VOD, Skype and Pandora (pictured above) unless of course you’re sporting one of last year’s models, which are sadly and inexplicably left wanting. If there’s any confusion, peep the press release after the break to make sure your specific model made the cut, we’ll be double checking for a 5.1 audio option on any of our Watch Instantly movies, again.

What happens when Apple introduces a square-shaped new iPod and adorns it with an analog watch face for a lock screen? A whole new cottage industry sprouts up, whereby entrepreneurial types dust off old and mostly worthless watch straps, cut out an iPod nano-shaped compartment in them, and charge you $19.99 for the privilege of turning your tiny PMP into a somewhat bulky wristwatch
