Just what you have always wanted to smell like… Fresh Pizza! Not so log ago, it was just a joke posted on Pizza Hut Canada’s Facebook page. Production is only a limited run, so much so, that there are only 100 bottles, and they are all being given away to some of the first fans to like and comment on the post from Facebook. Rumour has it that Pizza Hut may go forward with another run to sell at retail stores.

Game of the Week:

War Thunder – Gaijin
I love flying games and flight simulators, and I enjoy the challenge of going head to head against other arm-chair pilots. War Thunder, although it is still in beta, has an impressive choice of aircraft spanning multiple decades and amazing graphics. Although I have been distracted by the recently made free Battlefield 1942 and the fresh release of Planetside 2, I will find time to squeeze in some flying. Take note, it looks like they will be using a ‘freemium’ model, meaning the game is free to play, but you can spend money to buy premium upgrades.

As always, I’m still open to suggestions for other categories, and for nominations to get included on the list. You can let me know at: oftheweekATleighcDOTcom
