THANK YOU... When was the last time these big publisher owned (ATVI) studios did something really innovative. EA and the like churn out games on a yearly basis when the reality is they need at least 2 years to do something really interesting and worth paying $50 for. I mean let's be serious Quake IV?!? 50 bucks at launch!?! It felt like a Doom III expansion pack. They're moving to consoles because children have consoles. Children are stupid. Children's parents will buy them whatever they want. That's why Pokemon is financially the most successful franchise in gaming history. Go for the easy buck at the expense of the real fans. Welcome to America.

Colbert New Comic-in-Chief 939

scottzak writes "Hail to the Chief! Stephen Colbert addressed the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday (attended by the President, the elite of Washington politics, and the White House Press Corps) and told the truth. Jaws dropped. Eyes popped. The live audience gasped. Scalia laughed his ass off. You want to see a brilliant comic display some real courage? Look no further. Enjoy the reaction shots, and Colbert's audition for Press Secretary job." The BBC covers the act just prior to Mr. Colbert's, where the President and a look-alike took turns making fun of his speaking skills.
