This Day in Gaming, July 9th

myst1.jpg1997: Dark Horse Comics announces a new 4-part series based upon the game Myst, 'Myst: The Book of the Black Ships'. Hmmm...Myst in comic form. Exciting panels of valves, levers and lighthouses...the whole idea reeks of a bad Thomas Kinkade prints.

2004: The Federal Trade Commission publishes an undercover investigation where they found that 69% of UNDER-17-year-olds were able to purchase games rated M without adult consent. And then the PTA attacked the FTC for their perversion of statistics.

2007: TDIG hits its 365th day on Kotaku and enters early retirement. Because shuffleboard is the ultimate game.
