We get to learn so many neat things from the lawsuit Activision rained down on the heads of Jason West and Vince Zampella, the founders of Infinity Ward. The latest? The fat loot they were due in 2010. Lots, and lots of Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers worth.
‘MASS EFFECT 3’ Extended Cut DLC Info: Hackett & EDI Confirmed
Just today I was wondering what the fuck was going on with the Mass Effect 3: Unfucked Ending, and no sooner do I dwell on it some info turns up. My mind has fucking powers! Imagining…Scarlett Johansson. She’s here guys. Be to the right back.
38 Studios Can’t Make Payroll, Bounces $1.125 Million Check. This Is Me Laughing.
This is me grinning as outspoken anti-Government Waste Curt Schilling descends into everything he once claimed to stand against. Demanding of the state for subsistence, incapable of providing for his own employees, bouncing checks, loving the idea of a safety net.
‘BORDERLANDS 2’ SPECIAL EDITIONS. Or, How I’ll Be Wasting Money In September

There’s a Russian start-up out there called Pirate Pay that wants to take your porn and music from you. Using some sort of nefarious (or is it heroic?) method, they can kill BitTorrent streams.

‘MINECRAFT” For XBLA Sold 1 Million Copies IN 5 Days; I Still Don’t Understand Game.
Minecraft continues to be a bankable commodity on a litany of devices, including the Xbox Live Arcade Place. It also continues to be a fucking enigma to me.
Microsoft Patents Controller That IDENTIFIES Who Is Holding It. Futurism ++
In the next future, with the Robot Apocalypse approaching, nowhere will be safe for us. As the robots crunch our skulls and drink our blood (they will convert it into a bio-fuel of sorts), we won’t even be able to play one last game of Halo before the Recknoning. Our own goddamn consoles will be able to identify us, just by us holding our controller.

The Xbox/Kinect bundle for $99 that the entire gaming internet speculates up on last week turns out to be real. The catch, the answer to how it can be peddled for such limited ducets, has also been revealed.
