Part anti-publisher rant, part impressive display of creative coding, Mark Feldman’s fascinating little story about how the multiple arcade machine emulator MAME was instrumental in rebuilding a Spy Hunter port from scratch is a must read.

This new trailer for fall 2011’s X-Men Destiny keeps hammering away at one point: as a virtual X-Man, we will be able to choose our destiny in Destiny.
