Yeah, I don’t think the complaint was CEO’s slacking off. It was the bad decision making.

Who could have predicted that the 4DX experience would have been so shoddy?

(checks their official website)

This thread is all the things, even after all these years.

Total 90's throwback.  If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t think they could pull it off.  But yes, this could be great!

Isn’t being a Guitar Hero star fronting at being a real guitar playing rockstar?

I have been buying up these coop FPS hoping that lightning will strike twice and we’ll have something as fun to play as L4D was.

Antitrust litigation will come back in vogue a few election cycles after campaign finance laws are reformed.  I hope I live to see the day, as the mighty will fall.

I am not super deep on Linux, but it was always my impression that it was the platform fragmentation more than the lack of desktop adoption that made Linux gaming not a very attractive market to try and break into as a game developer.

This article is a million years old. But I work with Jeff now. He’s a great guy.

All sage advice. But, being the power user I am (I have created AppCompat shims myself for work after finding compatibility issues) the biggest thing which would scare me if my business was built on Win7 is drivers.
