I have a friend, whose name is Mark Sorrell, who yesterday posted this column. It’s probably worth going and reading that first, or none of the rest of this will make sense. That column triggered a bunch of discussion, part of which was a reddit thread, and part of that thread was this comment from…

Once upon a time, there was a PS3 exclusive called Sorcery. It looked like the kind of high-definition motion-control game that would pull in gamers skeptical of what Sony’s Move controller could do. It even got nominated as one of the best games Kotaku saw at last year’s E3. Yet, it suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.…

The artwork, a.ka. the Cube, lives not far from New York University, The New School, and few other landmarks. It’s been in music videos by Cypress Hill and other groups and has been the subject of…
I would actually pay for this chicken to be a DLC mount in Red Dead Redemption. In fact I think we should all petition Rockstar right now, to make this happen. Any takers…? …Guess not, oh well, maybe it can be a secret boss in the new Metal Gear game or something. While I go…
Angry Birds has its own board game, plushies, cookbook and even a knock-off attraction in a Chinese theme park, but now the massively popular mobile game is getting an official line of playground equipment and parks.
