It's not such a big deal. After all, there is a link to it on a stickied thread, so it is only one click farther. First you check if there are any new titles on the release calendar, then you click for the news. Simple.

Note I put the HD DVD player review by Kris Deering under May 22. The review heading doesn't have a date, so I took the date it was first mentioned on the forum.
Bump for end of the month.
