Check out our awesome new commenting tools

DLS commentsYou may have noticed that we've done a little spring cleaning with our commenting system lately. Sure, it may almost be winter, but that's beside the point. The point is that leaving a comment on Download Squad posts has never been easier or more fun.

Here's how it works. If you've never left a comment before, just click on the comment link at the bottom of a post, and enter your name and email address in the "New Users" section. Then go ahead and leave your comment. We'll send you an email for verification purposes.

We'll also enter your information into Blogsmith, the beast that runs Download Squad, Engadget, and other Weblogs Inc blogs. If you've left comments on any of our sites over the past few months, you probably already have an account. All you have to do is click on your name in any comment you post and you'll see a page with all of your comments. You can login to edit your profile, add a URL, or upload a picture that will show up next to all of your posts.

But that's just the beginning. You'll also notice that the comment section of each post is a bit more useful. You can reply to specific comments, and not just the entire post. The results will be displayed in a threaded fashion, which make it much easier to follow a conversation.

You can also click the up or down arrows on any comment to vote comments up or down.
DLS comment buttons
If you think one comment is particularly insightful or useful, help us get it to the top of the pile. If one is kind of lame, vote it down. If you notice comment spam or something particularly offensive, go ahead and click the "!" button to send an alert to Download Squad. We'll take a look at the offending comment and decide if it needs to be deleted.

Now go forth and comment!

Graveyard Shift - zombie-busting Time Waster

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
