Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. As I looked for a new video for this week’s Embedded Reporter, I came across one that was absolutely brilliant and well done. Naturally I chose to put this up instead. Hey guys, I didn’t talk about L4D2 on Friday, so I’m having some feelings of withdrawal. Enjoy!
Charlie and the gang continue their pursuit of Adachi bringing them to a familiar location. Get Persona 4!
Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. July was an interesting month for sales. It seems that if your name wasn’t EA or Nintendo, you didn’t even crack the top ten list for game sales. In fact, Nintendo’s month of dominance is even more astounding when you consider that the top sellers included New Super Mario Bros. and Mario Kart DS, games well past their prime. This tough economy is making it rough to be anyone but Nintendo, but I’m sure that the holiday season will bring other games to the forefront. There’s lots of good stuff in the pipe. ...
Adachi has run away into the world of the television, leaving Charlie and the gang to follow him. I’m pretty sure they intend to do some leveling first, but this mystery is close to being solved. Get Persona 4!
Well I wrote this already once, but the internet managed to lose it thanks to some internet problems. So here we go again. When we last left Dan, his children and Sancho had just discovered his statued form face down, the world going to hell all around him. I can’t even imagine what it must have felt like for Dan to see Sancho roll up with what could only be his children eight years after their birth. ...
Charlie and the gang have decided that, against all odds, Adachi must be the murderer. Are they right? Will they be able to catch him in time before he erases all the evidence? Get Persona 4!
It’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up. Remember last week when I said the Marlins needed to start doing better for the rest of the season? Seems they took my urgings seriously. Counting Wednesday, the Marlins are 4-2 ( good), with two of those wins coming from teams above them on the wild card ( great). They’ve also got a streak of 13 straight games with ten or more hits ( wow). At this time of writing, the Marlins are two back on the wild card and 4.5 back on the division. If they keep this amazing run up, they just might make it to the playoffs this year. ...
The Seekers of Truth continue to try and figure out just who is the real culprit behind the mysteries in Inaba. They’re getting close. It’s only a matter of time now. Get Persona 4!
Hi, I’m Eric and I’m a guest contributor to Dan’s blog. I plan on starting a column on Dan’s blog called “Objection” where I debunk rumors. I’m not sure how often this column will appear, but I’m sure we’ll get it figured out with time. Today I wanted to debunk the rumor that there are no commercial games for Linux. First off, a really insanely quick primer. Linux (aka GNU/Linux to some) is a kernel (brains of an operating system) that is paired with a bunch of programs to make a fully-functional operating system. A Linux operating system package is called a distribution and a distribution can be compared to Microsoft’s Windows or Apple’s OSX. Linux is free software, but that’s not the same as freeware as in that video game you downloaded off the ’net last night that was fun, but over quickly. Although Linux is often given away for free, the free in free software refers to the freedom to do whatever you want with it. You can take all the code and change it and get new functionality. The duality of these attributes leads most people to make the following generalizations about Linux users: they are cheap and they are hackers. ...
Vinny and Jeff think they’re much closer to the end than they are, but the choices and decisions they make here will shape the end of their game. Good luck helping Charlie solve the mystery of the Midnight Channel in Inaba! Get Persona 4!
