Have I gone crazy? There was a quick look of this game up this morning, and now it has been completely vaporized from existence. What happened?

It was on the homepage for me. Watching it right now.

It's right there for me.

Yeah I dunno the homepage featured videos seem to shuffle around sporadically.

Once you've watched or read something it tends to get removed (temporarily) from the front page so you can see other content.

It has disappeared up its own orifice.

I remember it being just a black screen for the first 4 mins, maybe they pulled it down briefly to fix that.

Yeah, they had a few false-starts with that QL. It's probably being re-edited.

1) If you left-click something on the dashboard then return to the homepage, something else will have taken its spot in the dashboard queue.

2) There were some issues with encoding videos that started around the Strider video, so they're reencoding all of the videos between then and now. Could've been that you just caught it at a bad time because of that, too.

It never happened. Vinny did not spend ten bucks on a bad videogame.

He's like the pope of videogames - he's infallible.
