We talked about GameDaily HUD #1 last week and now they have released #2.  For the second time in a row, they selected my old blogging partner in crime (Daniel Perez) from FileFront as one of the poll members.  Head over to GameDaily and find out what the fuss is all about this week in the gaming world from the writers in the industry.  Here’s a quick description of this week’s HUD:
