ige: less money, mo’ problems
12nov07
virtually blind has posted paperwork and some commentary from the ongoing hernandez v. ige lawsuit.
remember those vehement, constant insistances that affinity media and ige were totally seperate, really, honest? from the motion to stay filed by ige (obtained by virtually blind):
defendant, ige u.s., llc n/k/a affinity media holdings, llc, (“ige us”)
(n/k/a is legalese for “now known as”). i guess “really seperate” means “until you get us under oath”.
in related news, playnoevil points out an article by mmobux, an rmt-friendly news site, cataloging what appears to be the hostile takeover of ige’s chinese arm from affinity.
atlas is part of ige by former shareholders more than a year ago after leaving ige, a corporation organized. ige them because of their dissatisfaction with affinity in the direction of development under the leadership chose to leave. these ige former shareholders understand and are concerned about the massive multiplayer online role-playing game (mmorpg) market, and thus set up the atlas, looking forward to this market for popular and urgent demand changes. in atlas, we attach importance to suppliers and cooperative relationship, and that all suppliers should be given due respect, including by agreement obtain timely payments. therefore, you are in arrears through the affinity purchase price incident on our part is not accepted and acceptable.
(my apologies for the google-generated engrish.)

go buy this game!
10nov07
the witcher - an oldschool rpg where you make real choices in a dynamic world, follow an only occasionally badly translated story that is over-the-top with sex and violence in pure conan style. still not convinced? this intro gives a good feel for the game.
go buy it.

remember, remember, the fourth of november

ron paul: the only republican candidate with that ever-vital crossover with alan moore fans.
mr. paul has stood out from the republican field for his opposition to the war in iraq. in the speech he argues that the fight against terrorism is threatening american democracy.
“the american republic is in remnant status,” he says. “the stage is set for our country eventually devolving into military dictatorship, and few seem to care.”
mr. benton clarified that mr. paul did not support blowing up government buildings. “he wants to demolish things like the department of education,” mr. benton said, “but we can do that very peacefully, in a constructive manner.”
i think this is probably the first republican candidate that has to specify that he does not actually support blowing up buildings.
everyone loves ron paul. even liberals! he’s cuddly!
for more on ron paul (and why i left the libertarian movement in general), something awful always has a nicely concentrated dose of hardcore freedom fighting. including everyone’s favorite: fighting ad banners.

dropping the nude bomb
02nov07
apparently someone equipped a bop gun and dropped the bomb on sword of the new world (pixellated slightly nsfw shots).
(as seen on massively, the new mmo news blog from joystiq which posts about 40 news stories an hour.)

erik wolpaw: still alive
31oct07
an interview with the person responsible for portal’s insanely good writing. (also that old man murray thing.)
also, there is cake. why’s that?
well, there are lots of message games coming out now. like they’ve got something really important to get off their chest about the war in iraq or the player is forced to make some dicey underwater moral choices. really, just a whole heck of a lot of stuff to think about. with that in mind, at the beginning of the portal development process, we sat down as a group to decide what philosopher or school of philosophy our game would be based on. that was followed by about fifteen minutes of silence and then someone mentioned that a lot of people like cake.
