Yeah, no. Any “streaming” games are getting a hard pass from me.

It’s a very frustrating answer to hear, considering the inherent limitations of streaming (bandwidth requirements, lag in inputs) and how poor the technology has done given that it’s already out there.

Wingdings.  Definitely Wingdings

Just a quick FYI on their prices.  Lego set prices per brick have been insanely steady for decades, hovering just around 12 cents per brick. 2321/180 gives us a price of 12.89 cents per brick, right in the sweet spot.

Only to have Google come out with another gaming platform with a completely different name, and branding.

As an Android user I look forward to google pushing this initiative SUPER hard for a year and then completely abandoning it

What happens when, no doubt eventually as language has always done, Erratic becomes negatively received? “Silly”? What about when people catch onto that being offensive, too? “Not Your Average Sim”? Then “None Of The Other Traits”? Eventually followed by abandoning naming all together and just describing it? Before…

His last Kotaku post was on 3/22, but his Kinja profile has no mention of anything.

A bit off topic, but when I saw this Labo review, my first thought was, as a toy guy, Fahey would be doing the review. Then I realized we haven’t had any Fahey articles in a while - even his Twitter has gone silent for the past month when prior it was getting multiple posts a day.

Electronic Arts’ Search for Extraordinary Experiences (SEED) Division—which sounds like an anime space force
