Thanks everyone! I've got an amazing list now I need to go through. I'll be stalking eBay later. Dad's gonna get so many hours of quality gaming for Christmas
Putting together a bundle of the best Xbox 360 games for my dad for Christmas. (Only console he owns, still going strong.) He's sunk many hours into Skyrim, and he quite enjoyed L.A Noire. Any suggestions? Alan Wake is on my list already.

Out of nearly 100 qrts, there was EXACTLY one that rightfully called out this article as clickbait and provided a contextual screenshot of what they actually meant
This isn't Gen AI, nor is it a misinformed executive. It's the same team that weathered the CGI boom saying they're ready for round two

Dunno how your Monday is going, but I'm knee-deep in a chapter of a book titled 'Clough's Ambivalent Victorian Manhood'

This is Oreo, which we shorten to Ori, which became Ori Bori, then Ori Bori Boobins, and now, sometimes, just Boobins.

Watched eps 1 and 2 of Stranger Things. I have mixed feelings. I won’t share them yet. But I will say that I love this woman

This is weird considering what other types of stuff Steam lets on there… you know… like full on porn games and a game that just came out about torturing people for sport.
Update: Valve has responded with a statement, confirming its decision not to release Horses on Steam is "final". bit.ly/48y75RM

By the way, it's National Editor Appreciation Day.
Nobody ever reads a great article and thinks, "Dang, that was some tight editing." But editing is a big part of how it got to be great.
So writers, if you've ever worked with a good editor, shout 'em out.
