This is really something. For this first time since I started reading it back in 1999 or so, slashdot has changed the look of the site.
This was really disorienting. It’s like seeing another face on Mt. Rushmore. There are some things that you just don’t expect to change.
Borderlands Series
A look at the main Borderlands games. What works, what doesn't, and where the series can go from here.
Playstation 3
What was the problem with the Playstation 3 hardware and why did Sony build it that way?
Good Robot Dev Blog
An ongoing series where I work on making a 2D action game from scratch.
Another PC Golden Age?
Is it real? Is PC gaming returning to its former glory? Sort of. It's complicated.
Denuvo and the "Death" of Piracy
Denuvo videogame DRM didn't actually kill piracy, but it did stop it for several months. Here's what we learned from that.

Maybe it’s not as shocking, but AnimeNewsNetwork just changed their art and color scheme too. Ewwwww. Where’s the cute elfie chick? Who needs all these Naruto clones? And that’s a very… agressive color scheme, guys.
It’s SlashDot XP!
I saw the preview last week, so I knew it was coming. Very pretty, but seems a little distracting. I’ll probably get used to it quickly enough.
I like it – it still has all the classic /. design cues but just looks more professional somehow. Viva la CSS!
It’s a good thing I stopped reading Slashdot two or three years ago. At that time they started reporting things two or three days later than LWN. Never looked back, so I’m happily ignorant about the new layout.
The new ANN looks good, though of course I’d prefer original characters. Using Naruto characters is asking for legal trouble, unless they reached an agreement with ViZ. In that case, good for them!
Gad; the new ANN color scheme is dreadful.

It looks like they were going for a “flames” motif and somehow ended up with “Ketchup & Mustard”.
