    Neal Stephenson's Sword-Fighting Kickstarter Has an Awesome Cameo

    This is their response to lack of feedback: "We've been thinking about this for years. It's not in the videos because to try to explain it here would get us hopelessly deep into the weeds. We think we have an approach that will work. It?s hard to explain in detail without a very lengthy brain...

    Play Diablo III On Your iPad

    Theoretically, there is no distance limit...just as long as you have fast internet access it would work. That means you could give it a go from a Starbucks 5 miles away, at an airport with decent wifi, or even 37,000 feet in the air. We're not talking walkie-talkies here.

    Play Diablo III On Your iPad

    You know, its not just Diablo III you can play on your iPad...it's any game you can run on your desktop. Diablo III is in the title just because it's the hot title of the moment. A virtual desktop can run any app.

    Braid Creator on Games as "Sh**ty Action Movies"

    The Atlantic article actually trashes Skyrim just as much as COD: "THERE?S NO NICE way to say this, but it needs to be said: video games, with very few exceptions, are dumb. And they?re not just dumb in the gleeful, winking way that a big Hollywood movie is dumb; they?re dumb in the puerile...

    Sliding Game Sales Hammer Best Buy

    Best Buy is the only big box store I know of that stocks everything I love about electronics. I can literally hang out there browsing physical items. I rarely buy anything there, especially media, but it's so cool to try out the hardware they've got...particularly with home audio. Not happy...

    Beamdog Boss Reveals More About Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition

    Count me as disappointed, though still curious. This enhanced edition sounds like a set of mods...I'm looking forward to see a screenshot to see what all the fuss is about.

    Hindus Upset Over Asura's Wrath

    Exactly. This routine generalization of religious faiths in headlines is getting out of hand. Even when its not intentionally alienating, just see how people are responding to such stories. Notice how when it's Christians who look bad, its always "Christian fundamentalists"? When other...

    Fallout 3 Marathon Raising Money For Child's Play

    I thought marathons for charity were supposed to be dull and boring? I would pay to play Fallout 3 for 60 hours uninterrupted.

    Valve Guy Makes His Half-Life 3 T-Shirt Talk

    My money is on that he made this shirt, but I don't think it's trolling. Maybe it's a Valve guy who really wants Episode 3 to happen, and what better way to stir the pot than wear this shirt at GDC?

    Developer: The Call Of Duty Engine is a "Porsche"

    In a Porsche, the engine takes a backseat. How much better an analogy can you get?

    Insurers Blame Fatal Stage Collapse on Illegal Music Sharing

    It makes perfect sense. These bands have too many fans because of illegal music downloading. Too many fans show up, and...wait a second, did they just blame the weather on fan turnout?

    Heavy Rain Dev Says Pre-Owned Sales Cost it Millions

    Makes you wonder how developers feel about public libraries. Borrow a PS3 game from the library for a couple weeks at a time? From their point of view, that would be robbing developers blind.
