unless you’re going to take Christie’s to task for being a revolving door for the wealthy looking to invest their money in what is basically a non-taxable savings account that happen to be paintings/faberge eggs/designer sneakers/etc (and i’m not saying you shouldn’t) this is more or less par for course for the world…

i’m guessing that both jennings and burton have been offered the job and turned it down do to the nature of the time commitment. it’s a huge, forever kind of job. 

i don’t know if you realize this, but television production isn’t a democracy, and those in positions of power guard their job security with rabid paranoia. he’s effectively the showrunner of jeopardy. he can say whatever he wants to the public but it’s clear the whole “guest host” process was a narrative gimmick…

they had Quake multiplayer running on televisions at Costco. Quake’s multiplayer mode took off instantly.

simple explanation—almost everyone who has played Quake did so long before Steam existed. so their “new” review may actually be reflective of a long-held, nostalgic sentiment.

it is not enough. 

these game dev companies are typically found in expensive cities though, and 50k is not enough to save for a home, pay for a family, save for retirement. if you’re making less than that, you should really question the nature of the job. 

that box is insane. it makes gloomhaven or bloodborne look manageable. that’s almost kingdom death monsters proportions. given that half my hobby involves it being manageable, this is unreasonably huge.

weird how comments like these just duplicate certain phrases like “staying in your head rent-free”, as if you have no original thoughts of your own. 

game addiction is real. all over the world people are getting hooked on fun!

she knows she’s in a great spot in this situation—as a female in a leadership position during a sexual assault crisis, she’s probably the least likely person to be fired for being a piece of shit. but clearly this person is a historical piece of shit, regardless of gender. 

i think this may be a case of something being missed by the internet until 2014 but well-known by people who still watched television news in the mid-00s.

Cosby settled his first rape case out of court in 2006. It was already public knowledge.

i hate to say this, but i have a bit of a problem with kotaku at the moment. for the last couple weeks there have been a series of increasingly aggressive articles on here—bordering on malicious hitpieces—that read, at least to me, a mellow, late 30's guy, as juvenile and unprompted. it’s felt like EDITORIAL HAS…

is the nasty mean streak i’ve detected lately due to the change in editor? i’m a bit shocked. i don’t recall hernandez being so negative in her writing before. so it’s somewhat of a surprise if this is in fact the case.

...or you could just do a better job of planning in advance? engage in a litte healthy self-criticism here.

“and have no plans for launching any other model at this time.”

lol you think they revolutionaries aren’t getting their weapons under the table from the CIA?

naw, this guy sounds like fun.
