Sonic 4, 2D is Cool Yet Again
Sonic 4, will bring back 2D gaming in a 3D era.
…In the early 1990s, the Sonic the Hedgehog series was such a force that it propelled Sega to a level of prominence that it had not even dreamt of and unfortunately still tries to return to today. The much maligned Sega has redeemed itself lately by publishing titles such as Bayonetta and others but the Sonic franchise is trying to polish its tarnished name which has degraded slowly over time.
For a short period of time it was cool to play Sonic and the chubby, overall-wearing Italian plumber was nearly forgotten by some as Sega was arguably winning that…

Dexter Morgan Has Nothing on These Serial Killers
about 2 weeks ago -
Unlike Dexter, here’s a look at some simply cold-blooded killers.
…Dexter has nothing on them? Those people are disgusting, vial abominations. Dexter (the character) kills criminals, people whom hurt other people and other wise deserve their fate. I see the reason of bringing this topic up was just to compare the worst acts of the worlds most sickening people and Dexter’s name was just the means to get people to check it out.
Interesting to see the comparisons, but to say Dexter has nothing on them is absurd. If Dexter were real, those sick…

Looking to cover every possible angle of NFL training camp, Sports Illustrated has once again unleashed its army of 350,000 Peter King clones on the preseason workout facilities of all 32 NFL teams.
…NEW YORK Looking to cover every possible angle of NFL training camp, Sports Illustrated has once again unleashed its army of 350,000 Peter King clones on the preseason workout facilities of all 32 NFL teams.
Marching in lockstep, dressed in identical turquoise polo shirts and khaki pants while carrying reporter’s notebooks in their left hands, the legion of indistinguishable sports journalists all reportedly maintain the same smile 24 hours a day, blink at the exact same time, and ask football-related questions in unison.
According to Sports Illustrated officials, there are currently 10,000 Peter King clones at each NFL training camp, with the remaining 30,000 assigned to Terrell Owens.
“The King simulacra are a very effective journalism tool,” Sports Illustrated’s assistant managing editor B.J. Schecter told reporters Friday, adding that no single human being could file six extensive training-camp reports in a one-week span. “At any given moment we might receive 84,000 different news items from 20 different…

HP CEO Mark Hurd resigns over sex scandal!
about 3 weeks ago -
Word just broke that Mark Hurd, the CEO of HP resigned due to a sexual harassment investigation! Whoa.
…Lesjak has asked to be excluded, and HP declined to answer if Jon Rubinstein was being considered when we asked.Update: We liveblogged the media call — check it after the break!
Update 2: A quick note from the investor call, which mostly repeated the same info — interim CEO Cathie Lesjak said that although Mark Hurd was a “strong leader, at the end of the day, he didn’t drive our initiatives — it was the organization that supported Mark in driving those initiatives.” Ouch — given Mark’s recent history of saying things like “we didn’t buy Palm to get into the smartphone business,” it certainly seems like he might have been a little disconnected.
3:32PM And that’s it! There’s an investor call coming up, we’ll let you know if we hear anything there.3:32PM PC Mag: Any litigation here? HP: Nothing has been filed, we have an agreement with Mark in place.
3:32PM Next question (from us!): Will Jon Rubinstein be considered for the CEO position? HP: We’re not identifying any candidates at this time.
3:31PM…
Eleven Great Playable Video Game Satires

They’re games, but they’re also parodies of games. Sweet!
…better than creator Ian Bogost himself: “You get a cow. You can click on it. In six hours, you can click it again. Clicking earns you clicks. You can buy custom ‘premium’ cows through micropayments (the Cow Clicker currency is called ‘mooney’), and you can buy your way out of the time delay by spending it. You can publish feed stories about clicking your cow, and you can click friends’ cow clicks in their feed stories. Cow Clicker is Facebook games distilled to their essence.” Plus you don’t even need Flash…
Apology after girl’s lemonade stand shut down

A county official in Oregon has apologized after a 7-year-old’s business venture was soured because health inspectors shut down her lemonade stand.
…PORTLAND, Ore. A county official in Oregon has apologized after a 7-year-old’s business venture was soured because health inspectors shut down her lemonade stand.
Multnomah County Chairman Jeff Cogen, the county’s top elected official, said Thursday that running a lemonade stand is a “classic iconic American kid thing to do.”
He says he called Julie Murphy’s mother, Maria Fife, to offer his apology and says she appreciated it.
Fife helped her daughter set up a lemonade stand last week at a local arts fair in northeast Portland. They had to pack up and leave after being approached by two inspectors who said the stand lacked a license.
Cogen says while the inspectors were doing their job, the rules are meant for professional food service operators. He adds he ran lemonade stands as a child….

The Top Ten RPGs of All Time
about 3 weeks ago -
Breaking down the greatest role-playing games of all time is a tricky task. There are many games that have RPG characteristics, but don’t really fall into the genre. There are some franchises that constantly put out great products, and it is difficult to separate one from the rest.
…8. Secret of ManaSecret of Mana may be the most innovative title on this list — which is huge praise considering the other titles on it. It incorporated multiplayer like never before. It broke away from the traditional turn-based fighting mechanism and used real-time combat instead — much like the Legend of Zelda games.Those things, coupled with the wonderful story, set Secret of Mana apart from the rest. As much as it was a technical achievement, it drew the player in with its wonderful characters. The world was lush and bright, and those that lived there were imaginative and unique.The soundtrack remains a hidden gem. In the video game canon of great soundtracks, Secret of Mana is known as one of the best, though it doesn’t hold the same fame as some of the other iconic ones. But that typifies the game as a whole — not the kind that comes to mind when discussing the great RPGs of all time, but one that definitely holds its own when stacked up against the…
Better Film Decade: 1980s or 2000s?

Axel, E.T. and Indy (no, not the one who hides from nuclear blasts in refrigerators) vs. Aragorn, Gaylord and Jake Sulley.
…Ledger edges Nicholson (not in cool though) Keaton and Bale are a wash to me, and TDK has the far superior script. That was tough to say. I beat a kid up on the bus over the Batman VHS back in 90, and I owned it for 25 hours before his brother got to me the next day and body slammed me Ultimate Warrior style in front of the entire 5th grade. I gave the tape back.That was my dedication. I gave and took ass whippings for Burton’s Batman….
Border Patrol Agent Let Illegals In the US For Sexual Favors
about 4 weeks ago -
Rudy Trace Soliz III, a former Customs and Border Protection, pleaded guilty to alien smuggling and bribery, the U.S. Attorney’s office announced today. He did it “in return for sexual favors with the co-conspirator,” the feds say
…This hot desire converts to cold disdain.” (Hey, we’re nothing but classy here.)The female co-conspirator has already pleaded guilty to possession of more than five kilos of cocaine with intent to distribute. She had yet to be sentenced, so we guess Soliz figured she wouldn’t exactly keep his secret when she got on the stand.The transporting of illegal aliens conviction carries a maximum punishment of 10 years imprisonment, while the bribery conviction is punishable by a maximum 15-year-term of imprisonment, the U.S. Attorney’s office says. Each count of conviction is also punishable with fines of up to $250,000….
