Thankful for: A day off. Whew.
I’m not so much looking forward to tomorrow, national Take Stuff for Granted Day.
For those that are celebrating, I hope you have a great one.
Megatextures
A video discussing Megatexture technology. Why we needed it, what it was supposed to do, and why it maybe didn't totally work.
Spider-Man
A game I love. It has a solid main story and a couple of really obnoxious, cringy, incoherent side-plots in it. What happened here?
Top 64 Videogames
Lists of 'best games ever' are dumb and annoying. But like a self-loathing hipster I made one anyway.
This is Why We Can’t Have Short Criticism
Here's how this site grew from short essays to novel-length quasi-analytical retrospectives.
Spec Ops: The Line
A videogame that judges its audience, criticizes its genre, and hates its premise. How did this thing get made?

Yo too, Shamus. [Sorry, this is a terrible way to point out a minor typo in your post. But I am in many ways a terrible person, so I guess that works out.]
Enjoy the day off, and happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
As for national Take Stuff For Granted day… I think I’m just going to stay inside.
And maybe snag a $15 WOW battlechest (though I do feel bad about that.)
Tomorrow is also national buy nothing day. next monday is national amazon day.
A Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate same.
Happy Thanksgiving all. As for tomorrow, I’m staying safely sequestered indoors.
umm…. you know you missed thanksgiving by seven weeks,
right?
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! :D
I am SO glad I don’t work retail anymore.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanks Giving!
I’m preaching to the choir. I quoted something from your article about how to deter software pirates – I think Nintendo is doing what you mentioned, by selling ROMs of their own games for Wii Points. ^_^
Happy T-Day to you, Shamus. ;)
… and a happy “Take Everything from the Native Americans and then Kill Them” Day to you too.
Happy Thanksgiving all!
Happy Thanksgiving!
(And not that I really want to get into an argument, but Thanksgiving isn’t and didn’t originate as a day to celebrate the plundering of Native Americans. Iirc, it was actually at the beginning of cooperation and a treaty that lasted 50 years or so. Wish it had lasted indefinitely though.)
Congratulations Shamus! You made it on Kotaku! Bask in your awesome mention!

Happy Thanksgiving (even it be late :D)
Hey, I think I forgot to be thankful for anything.
