Eurogamer has word on a new feature in
Curiosity – What's Inside the
Cube?, the clickfest/gullibility experiment from Peter Molyneux's 22Cans.
The planned PC edition of the game has still not materialized, but what has been
materializing is more of the game's namesake cube, as they have added the
ability for users to pay to add back to it, even as other players chip away at
the cube to earn access to the "life-changingly amazing" secret contained
within. Points to
Gamasutra for pointing out: "Peter Molyneux may have just monetized
trolling," though arguably this was achieved when this app initially launched.
Thanks nin.
There's a
The Binding
of Isaac: Rebirth interview with Edmund McMillan on YouTube with word
that the original
The Binding of Isaac has surpassed the 2 million sales
mark, as noted by
Destructoid. They also pick out what he has to say about the game's upcoming
sequel, which will not use
Flash, but rather a new engine for a more optimal
experience. Thanks

Note to CBS: Your inability to schedule accurately around your sporting events
is a big pain. MrsBlue is a fan of "The Good Wife" (I assume its a female thing)
and because you always have sports that run long on Sunday, she has been forced
to add 90 minutes to the end of her recordings of it on the DVR to ensure it
doesn't get cut off (that's probably 30 minutes too long, she's needed an hour
more than once). So on a night when all the best shows air, I have the tyranny
of the DVR being locked for two and a half hours into a network that doesn't
carry any of them. Tyranny I say!!!
