Tuesday will see the end of Left 4 Dumb. On Tuesday You’ll also get two Stolen Pixels. Today, you just get the one.
Video Compression Gone Wrong
How does image compression work, and why does it create those ugly spots all over some videos and not others?
Overthinking Zombies
Let's ruin everyone's fun by listing all the ways in which zombies can't work, couldn't happen, and don't make sense.
Top 64 Videogames
Lists of 'best games ever' are dumb and annoying. But like a self-loathing hipster I made one anyway.
Playstation 3
What was the problem with the Playstation 3 hardware and why did Sony build it that way?
Diablo III Retrospective
We were so upset by the server problems and real money auction that we overlooked just how terrible everything else is.
It’s just as well that wasn’t one of his lines in-game. You’d never stop hearing it.
Aww. Oh well, Stolen Pixels is good too!
It’s too bad there wasn’t an opportunity to refrain “I hate this campaign”
Also, it’s too bad this wasn’t in the first Left 4 Dead, or Louis’ outfit would be that much more sublime.

Bill will probably just end up using The Reaper anyway considering it’s so kick ass.
Edit: And it seems that something is keeping me on this page…
I think they should localize the cricket bat to whatever country the game is sold in. In England, South Africa, India, and Australia, it’s a cricket bat, in Scotland a golf club, in Canada, Scandinavia, and Russia a hockey stick, in Switzerland and Austria a ski, in the US, the Caribbean, and Japan a baseball bat, etc.
I`m gonna miss Left for Dumb
“The girl one is a witch. Don’t mess with her.”
“Yeah. For real.”
Listen to Louis. He knows. :)
Cerveza: What, and deprive us of cricket-batting goodness? Hell no!
You know, there’s got to be a joke in there somewhere where our four heros somehow manage to get railroaded…er…blunder into “Survival” mode…
Louis: Lets go!
Zoey: No! I’m telling you, stay here! They will come to us!
Louis: Really? Hey, cool! That means we have a head start!
Bill: Yeah, besides, I have the Reaper.
Zoey: You dont understand…they are just going to KEEP coming, you CANT just sweep them away! Look, just shoot anything that moves and isnt one of us, OK?!
Francis: They’ll keep coming.
Reee-aallly, now. How do you know that?
Zoey: It was in the backstory, if you had bothered to read it.
Louis: Read?
Bill: Read?
Francis: Read?
Zoey: Nevermind. I hate this campaign….
