The Walking Dead Video Game Review

Wednesday, June 27th, 2012, 7:20pm

I love The Walking Dead! Just like most of the America, I was glued to my TV set watching episode by episode! The next day we come into the office and talk about last night's crazy episode and debate what we wished would happen in future episodes. We just can't get enough of our rag tag group of survivors - dealing with one problem only to find another! Then there are the Zombies! Just like those said zombies, I can't get enough of the show; I want to consume more and more of it. You can imagine my excitement when I heard that there was a downloadable video game for my X-Box 360 (also on the PC and PlayStation 3).

Right now there are two downloadable episodes you can play for five dollars an episode. Telltale Games, the developer for Action Adventure and Role Playing game, has slated this game to have a total of five episodes.

Huntsville-based company offers help finding Black Friday deals

HUNTSVILLE, AL (WBRC) - Whether you love braving the crowds in the stores on Black Friday or facing your computer so you can shop with your mouse, there are savings to grab.

"There are about 10,000 new deals everyday from Amazon to Groupon," said Daniel de Grandpre, founder of dealnews.com.

He says his website will do the price comparisons, the checking and double checking and all of the hard work for you.

"When we see a potential Black Friday deal, we check to see if that item has been cheaper recently and if it has, then it's not that good a deal," said de Grandpre.

The company headquarters is in Huntsville.

"We have a staff working 24/7 on Thanksgiving and Black Friday and Cyber Monday," said de Grandpre. "We will b

Banks sock it to customers as regulations take effect

By Rachel Bennett

(RNN) - Thanks to new bank regulations that take effect Oct. 1, many checking account customers can expect to see their fees rise simply for having an account.

The new regulations limit how much money banks can charge businesses for accepting debit card purchases. Each swipe of a debit card by a cardholder costs businesses a percentage of the sale.

Under the new regulations, banks are limited to a $.21 charge on debit card swipes. It's a more than 50 percent decrease from the previous average of $.44 per use.

The new regulations are expected to cost banks a lot of money.
