How about an epic PC versus console gaming smackdown, in the tradition of end-of-year numbers lists?

I spent part of 2008 taking polite shots at PC foibles like Microsoft’s halfhearted Games for Windows initiative, the functionality and game support travesties that plagued Vista for the better part of 2007 into 2008, PC gaming’s dwindling stable of A-list exclusives, and the short-term-gains mentality that’s increasingly dropping eggs in low-risk baskets labeled “World of Warcraft” and “The Sims.”

So here’s my last minute about-face defending the PC as a viable games platform, and a friendly rejoinder to Techradar’s “12 reasons console gaming beats PCs.”

via 15 Reasons PC Gaming Beats All – PC World.

PC Gaming is just far superior to console gaming.

Sure, while you don’t have to have to upgrade your console every 8-12 months to have a decent gaming PC, you can enjoy the benefits of all the things listed in the article.

Personally, I’d rather game on a PC than on a console. Either one is cool, but whatever – if someone publishes a story detailing why console gaming is better then PC gaming, I’ll link that too.

…is that “no one ever reads your blog”.

Ouch. What a scathing comment.

Blogs are these magical places where the author can put whatever he/she wants, whenever he/she wants. Content is purely the discretion of the blogger, and if it’s a personal blog (like this one is), then the content is usually what the blogger deems “cool”.

Anyways, just thought you should know that the worst thing you can ever say to a blogger is that no one ever reads their blog.

A MAN whose wife allegedly set fire to his genitals while he slept has died.

[...]

The incident has now been declared a major crime by police and it is likely his wife, Rajini, will face a charge of manslaughter or murder.

Police have alleged Mr Narayan’s wife doused his genitals with methylated spirit and then set him on fire about 5.30am on December 7.

Hey there,

Just a short note to say Merry Christmas to you, sir, and all of your buddies.

From myself, have a good one, be safe, and most of all – enjoy whatever you do on this day of food and presents.

Because we all love presents, right?

Right?

Australia’s hugely controversial ISP filtering plan received a lump of Christmas coal in its stocking with the release this week of a new report that points out the many difficulties with such a scheme. The current government’s response is to make clear that the report was commissioned by the previous government—which apparently makes it a bit suspect. A live trial of the filtering system has been delayed into January, but it is still going ahead.

When you’re playing the versus mode in Left 4 Dead, the zombie’s ability to see the outline of your character through the walls gives them a huge advantage while planning their attacks. There are some things you can do to make that outline disappear so you can move in secret, but what those things are have been subject to debate online. Finally, someone on the Steam forum has outlined exactly what you can and can’t do if you want to remain unseen.
