This list is deeply disappointing.

Bought Ridge Racer Unbounded after seeing the Quick Look. It's pretty tedious. It is frustrating in its "well-placed" building facades that nearly ensure, if I am in uncontrolled drift, I will crash. However, it can be all too easy to take and keep first place in the first unlocked car, such that I feel no sense of accomplishment. Perhaps, it's just that I am an unskilled buffoon who can't drift and just keeps pounding on the game until an acceptable outcome is achieved. That said, I have the impression thus far that you don't have to be particularly skilled to do well in Ridge Racer Unbounded.

I'd also note that the textures and color palettes can make it pretty difficult to anticipate and discern the disposition of objects, turns, and the road itself to the degree that the simulation of driving a car is lost and it becomes a matter of pushing your graphics object through a murky tunnel to the finish line.

In other words, you guys always intended to sell out when the money was right instead of building up the business yourselves and relying on the community you helped to build.

Say goodbye to three hour Bombcasts. Best start pumping out more Quick Looks for your corporate masters.

People are being far too generous to these proceedings. How many times did they cut over to Hulk Hogan during the show?? The show was shameless self-promotion for Spike TV and nothing else. Hey, and did you know that it will covering CES live this year, since it ran the promo for the coverage every, every, every commercial break on the livestream?

Project Natal is to Kinect as PlayStation Vita is to whatever the real name will be. 
 
A code name is not necessarily the final product name, to state the obvious.

Hey, Whitta!  You wrote the screenplay for one of this year's most successful summer movies!  Time to stop hanging out in sloppy frat boy clothes with friends from your former life as if nothing had changed for you.  It's embarrassing.  For all of us.

Yeah, I had some of the same thoughts but without the specificity as to the grammar.  An adjectival clause is properly more appropriate as you have stated.  "Deer that wrestles" as opposed to "Wrestling deer".  Also I wouldn't used "reperio"  since it means finds or discovers.  I think they want something more like seeks.  One could have used something as simple as "peto, petere" which is kind of a first year of Latin word.

Cool, a fellow sufferer at the hands of a Latin education.  I don't know that "luctandus" is totally right.  I don't remember much of anything about the proper use of the gerundive, but it's much better than it was originally.  In a similar vein, there may be a better word choice than "reperio, reperire", but I didn't go that far. And of course, sentences were often strangely constructed in Latin, so a real expert in the Latin language might suggest a whole different set of words or constructs than this simple formulation.
