Having been really looking forward to it, this just reinforces that. The exclusivity deal, however, is unfortunate in the extreme.

2018 Compensation of Top Activision Executives:

And viruses exist to multiply and spread as much as they can, but we don’t just allow them to grow out of control without fighting back.

I worked there at the moment they 86'd the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. So back in 2008 they made it even harder for rank and file employees to buy stock.

While our financial results for 2018 were the best in our history, we didn’t realize our full potential.

Oh look. A company has to cut fat, yet pay the top guy millions of dollars for this failure instead of sacking his ass.

Yeah, I’m guessing that the point being made is that a band that’s gone out of their way to appear transgressive and shocking are doing so with Mom’s permission.

If the foundation of the “art” is its authenticity and independence, and the artist is both fake and dependent, I would venture an accurate descriptor of that dynamic would be “oblivious self-parody.” But then I suppose that could be art in its own right, depending.

I’m of two minds on this. My initial instinct is to agree with you that the art itself should be considered, not the source of it’s creation.

I have to disagree on the font. When you have a game with pixelated graphics, but a smooth sans-serif font, it just looks awful to me. I’m very glad they went with the pixelated font here.

If that was truly the case, why does the tattoo have the first and last character, and not end on one of the middle ones? I can answer that; she was dumb and didn’t check first.

On the one hand, I’m glad this is in Retro’s hands now.

...on the other, the wait is going to be a long one, it seems.

Ah well.  Not as if we’re without a ton of stuff coming out over the next couple of years.

Don’t know about the bigger third parties but the indies seem overall pretty happy about the performance of their games on the Switch (mileage varies by game, of course).

If Savannah sincerely wanted a balanced interview, she should have questioned this kid the same way women and girls have been questioned for their choices, especially by the Catholic Church!

Few things here, if you don’t want people to think you are racist, don’t were a MAGA hat. If you think, oh, that could be my son, you need to raise your children to be better people. And lets not forget, this whole thing happened because a Catholic high school decided to take a bus full of teenage boys to a protest…

So you attribute stagflation to a single factor in the ‘70s? Astronomical oil prices didn’t factor in? A shift in the focus of the US economy from manufacturing to information/services? The end of massive DoD expenditures for the Viet Nam war?

You’re isolating the tax rates from other cultural circumstances (with a slight nod to other factors that may have contributed to the growth after the ‘64 cut). During the ‘50s, under Eisenhower, when the upper rate was around 90%, the country went through an economic boom that saw massive gov’t expenditure on job…

I love it when people confidently lie.
