Thanks for the tips, Kevin. I know you guys aren't at fault for this, but so long as the guys currently in charge are running Gawker, and so long as Adrian Chen is 4Chan-baiting Adrian Chen, I'm going to have a decidedly less cordial relationship with this network.

Wow. There are a lot of big names bowing in a pretty short window late next year.

@Getsuga Tensho: I couldn't care less about them beating Oblivion. I care about them beating Morrowind... you know, the best title so far in the Elder Scrolls series.

@Epifante: Your ears are deceiving you. That's just a variation of the Elder Scrolls theme, as used in the the other games in the series... this time, they added some chants to it and sped it up a bit, but if you listen closely it's pretty much the same theme you heard in Oblivion, for example...

Shut your fucking mouth, yes. This is how you do an announcement. Gah, this is going to be great... but the wait is going to be awful.

@philippemorin123: No offense, but we're not discussing the best working conditions. We're discussing the best work. And lots of great things have been born of less than decent beginnings. You can abhor Rockstar's business practices, but you can't deny the final product was a thing of beauty.

@Squirrelbot3000: I'm willing to concede that leaving out AC: Brotherhood might be an oversight (or just a matter of taste), but Enslaved shouldn't make it within twenty yards of this article. That game was enjoyable, had a somewhat memorable story, and was not superlative in any other way. In fact, a number of…

It's novel, and not poorly implemented. I do wish I could assign it where to sync within my Dropbox, though... and the other comments about the formatting issues are spot-on.

@rEVOLVEr: Your diet must be fascinating.

@BiteKick: Spider!

It's very discomforting to notice that Steven Tyler and Palpatine share more than a passing resemblance.

@when: I don't doubt this guy uses his workspace for something bigger than social networking (I mean, those tablets don't come for free), but it's definitely inadequate for most purposes. I mean, his actual hardware is hanging over the edges of his too-small desktop. Where's his actual work supposed to go?

@GizmoTron9000: I understand that point, but what's really so different between running closed-environment apps within a web browser (which is the operating system and supports caching for offline use) and running closed-environment apps within an operating system that has (to the lay person) the same determinate…

If they're going to support Android tablets they might as well support Android phones as well... after all, the Evo, Droid X, and Streak aren't all that much smaller than the Galaxy Tab... heck, for that matter the entire Galaxy S line isn't really that small, either.

Awesome! So this week's Tell Us Dammit will be what are you planning on watching other people play this weekend, right?

It's pretty, but impractical. I'd hate to have a desk with a work surface too small for my peripherals, to start... and the jagged front edge (while beautiful) is not in any way conducive to work.

@fatboislimm: You realise this isn't terribly far off from what Apple is doing, right? OSX is turning into iOS a lot faster than iOS is turning into OSX. Apple's got an app store for Mac, now, and it's all tied to your iTunes account so it'll be accessible on any Apple device you own. Local content aside, Apple is…

@sumnumbnutz: Chrome OS is basically Chrome running on top of Linux. In Chrome OS, the browser is the operating system, and the webapps (as unveiled and available today in the Chrome Web Store) are the applications you'll run in that environment.

@Xazi2003: I guess so, but it seems there's an update nearly every time I turn the thing on... and admittedly I play my 360 more than my PS3, so it's not like I fire the thing up daily. But it's still comical how often the PS3 updates. And the update process for that machine is terrible. It takes ages.

It only does updates (every single time you turn it on).
