I really miss Jeff being creepy/racist while reading WiiWare listings.

It was around this time last year that the CBS buyout was announced too, right?

Oh, I'm gonna miss Random PC Game and Flight Club. I know he says he'll come by often, but it can't be as regular as it was last year.

Though I am happy to see Matt employed. That dude had a rough year if you've been foll0owing him.

What is Dave doing for work looking forward? He seems a bit young to retire, even if he did get a chunk of the Whiskey Media buyout money. Hopefully, he'll be back in some capacity.

Is it that they plan to make any content at all today?

The Lutese's and the whole city in some ways reminded me of The Prisoner. I even found an old-timey big front wheel bike that I felt was likely a reference.

You know, on the subject of this (sort of), there is the choice on the beach between the broaches, either a bird or a cage. I chose bird because i thought it represented freedom and and the sister Lutese seemed mildly surprised, like this was not what she expected in this whole mess her brother started, while he seemed smug. There was no further mention of the broach, however. did anyone pick the cage? Did it have a payoff I didn't notice as well? Was it cosmetic or cosmic?

I think I've wrapped my head around the multiverse thing, but there remains one untold variable, unless I missed it, and that is Songbird. What is it? they talk of the Handymen and others and justify their existence in the world, but they don't elaborate on Songbird unless there is some story beat i totally missed. Perhaps it's unimportant, the story could have existed without him, technically, but I am curious.

Thoughts? Theories?

The entire first half-hour, and every time I heard an 80's hit sung in an oldtimey way. Tainted Love and the Instrumental Cindy Lauper were two amazingly shocked moments because it was a slow realization.

Well, Whatdyaknow, always online DRM is total, unmanageable crap. Who could have seen that coming? When even a server-savvy company like blizzard has a shitty launch due to their paranoid DRM as still receive tons of hack attempts, account theft and server outages, maybe a bumbling fuckup of an organization like EA should just veer clear of that sort of thing and just make it a gameplay incentive to play with a friend instead of goddamn necessary. Didn't really work out well for Ubisoft either. I want games to succeed and I want EA to get better, but jesus christ, it's like clown university over there.

And on your birthday, too? Lame gift, universe. Get better, Patrick.

We have a winner. Thanks Mihos.

TheFreepie: I just remembered it recently, I think due to the Space Suit Zero QL and couldn't remember the name. The setup was interesting, and the promise of Elite-style gameplay was appealing. I have no memory if I liked it or not.
