    Hotline Miami 2 Devs Remove "Rape Scene" From Demo

    Again, from the devs themselves: "We were really sad that some people were so affected by it, because maybe they had been through something like that of their own. Maybe they had a terrible experience of their own that was triggered by the game. That was not intentional at all. We didn?t add...

    Civilization V Gets Diplomatic With Brave New World Expansion

    "In Scramble for Africa, you'll take on one of the colonial powers "scrambling to explore the Dark Continent" and reach its interior." I am NOT really comfortable with that. I'll wait to see in how good taste it ends up being, but that's a damn thin line to walk.

    Escape to the Movies: Gangster Squad

    For those who had high hopes for this movie or just like the time period; L.A. Confidential (from '98) is absolutely great. Look it up!

    Escape to the Movies: The Amazing Spider-Man

    Judging by the footage, the film seems to be ridiculously teal and orange. (Teal and orange, for those who don't know: http://theabyssgazes.blogspot.se/2010/03/teal-and-orange-hollywood-please-stop.html )

    Blizzard Announces Diablo III Release Date

    Well, in that case I can only say that was some embarassingly bad research on my part. But what I meant with the ME3 comparison was that this is a much bigger game release they're riddling with cash-grabs. ME3 was a lot more brazen, but that wasn't a game people had been waiting for for over a...

    Blizzard Announces Diablo III Release Date

    "collector's edition will be available for $99.99. The collector's edition will include [ ... ] exclusive content for World of Warcraft and Starcraft II" Screw you Activision for tainting this big a thing for gaming. This even eclipses EA's Mass Effect 3 shenanigans. ._.

    Twitter Subpoenaed in Occupy Wall Street Case

    This doesn't seem to be a free speech issue or such, they're just trying to find out what he wrote, but do they even need to subpoena his tweets? They're not private, that's sort of the point - especially if he wanted to tell people what was happening on the bridge. This blunt approach again...

    UPDATE: Petition Demands White House Investigate SOPA Supporter

    I was stunned when I first read this guy's comments so seeing this makes me glad. ...Lamar Smith next? Or cross the pond to help stop the ACTA people lobbying in Europe right now?

    When Dragon Age II Fell Apart

    Great article. Still don't regret giving the game a pass. In the end, I think the bigger picture around it boils down to this: BioWare shouldn't be owned by EA. It does not under any circumstance make sense and cripples gaming.

    Star Wars: The Old Republic Might Be Heading to Macs

    I was just going so write that. Article author, revise! And yes, there'll probably be a Mac version. If EA smell enough money, that's what's coming.

    Half-Life 3 Logo Appears on Mystery Website

    Of note, provided it's true: http://www.xg247.co.uk/news/12/black-aperture-hides-logo-within-a-logo/ Jibberish or not, this whole thing is the thing most resembling an official announcement yet and with Ep 2 four years behind us it would be about damn time. But it might still take a while...

    Bethesda: New Vegas Dev Is Wrong About Skyrim's PS3 Lag

    "VP of PR and Marketing" <- There's why. It's his job to make the company look good.

    File-sharing Remains Legal In Switzerland

    WOW! In these SOPA-and-similar-ridden days I really didn't think governments were capable of something like this. I love you, Swiss government and need to live in your country, like... yesterday.

    Red Cross Investigating Virtual War Crimes

    Shoo, Red Cross. Art is art and as a rumination on life must be free to examine moral shades of grey of all kinds. Art should, however, be aware of this and use it to drive home some sort of point with some measure of sensibility and not mere sensationalism to appease Marketing (looking at you...
