I was curious, out of the top ten worldwide box office champs for each year, how many movies were original, written-for-the-screen stories. No adaptations. No remakes. No sequels. Starting with 1977

I've been thinking about this: generally, about how skilled labor is being devalued, and particularly, about the way creative labor is rendered invisible (often by having someone else assume credit for it). @brandon.insertcredit.com wrote a nice thread about giving precise, granular credit yesterday
I just remembered to be mad at the fact that, I'm told, none of the people who worked on VTMB2 at Hardsuit before it was ripped from them by Paradox and shat out by The Chinese Room ended up being credited, only Special Thanksed. Who else wants to get mad

In the original arcade version of Final Fight, there's a third button whose function is to escape grabs. It's not wired by default in arcade machines, but was left in the game code and can be accessed via emulation. Here, I tested it via MiSTerFPGA. It was probably used by the devs during QA.

So in Arc Raiders there is a door glitch. You don't need to know what it is, just that the gamers are brainstorming all the "easy" ways to "fix" the doors and it's simultaneously hilarious and horrifying. My two favorite solutions are "add a kill volume" and "put a second door behind the door".
