How LucasArts Fell Apart. WOW If you ever played Full Throttle, Monkey Island or any of the X-Wing games go read this. It's ok I'll be here when you get back. I know the article is specific to LucasArts but a lot of video game houses have gone out of business or been bought up by EA over the last few years and this article gives some really good insight as to why. $100 Million to develop a Star Wars themed GTA clone? That's crazy money. We're light years away from Lord British developing games alone in his mom's basement.

Also I'd like to point out that it's mentioned that the Star Wars 1313 trailer that debuted at E3 in 2012 totes was running on next generation console tech, just as I thought in my post about it. Go me.

Forever 21 and Batman finally team up. I'm not going to lie to you, there's a strong chance my wife gets this sweater for Christmas. I mean the rest of the clothes they have are really awful but this sweater is pretty boss.

I Watched the Esquire Network for 24 Hours Straight. The New Esquire Network is supposed to be the network for the sophisticated male. Good luck with that. Remember when TLC was The Learning Channel? I predict in 2 years ESQ will be known as the go to place for Cops and Two and a Half Men reruns.

If Bill Gates really thinks ctrl-alt-del was a mistake, he should have fixed it himself. I know why ctrl-alt-del was used as the hard reset by IBM but I had no idea why Microsoft adopted it to do such critical tasks as log into your computer and pretend to bring up task manager while you wait for 20 minutes.. Now I do.

The Qatar World Cup Is A Moral Shit Show. Did you know Qatar uses near slave labor and they have zero safety standards? Go Soccer!
