Holy shit, this was great journalism. I really hope that the pilot surfaces someday, because it looks downright bonkers. Thanks for this. Read more

Those last couple of paragraphs are great, Cecilia. Ward cuts a tragic figure. It’d be interesting to see him attend a modern convention, but it’s unclear whether he’d want to. Read more

When I questioned why these all-girls groups are so prevalent, he said, “It’s just horny guys and computers, I think.” Well, okay, but what about you? Read more

whom Kotaku will hereafter refer to as “Hammond,” not “Wrecking Ball” Read more

One thing unchanged from last season: I still suck mightily at Fortnite.  Read more

Sad to see the prison and Moisty Mire gone (as well as the soccer stadium, but I guess that was mostly just for the World Cup?), plus it looks like there’s some new waterfall in the mountain SE of Snobby Shores. But hey, that’s what this game is. Vehicles though!

Tuned into this guy last night for the first time, coincidentally. On top of being humorous and the satisfaction at being “in” on the situation, the stream is really educational about the types of tactics these scammers are using.

Because Blizzard is trying to create a decent experience for 2 teams of 6. If you have a team who are legitimately at 500 Sr, or whatever, up against a team that should be at 3500 but reset or threw and is now mid-climb, it’ll be a stomping of epic proportions. Until the reset/thrower team gets back up around where… Read more
