I Think This Time of Year Every Year…
…things get a little bit busy. And by “busy” I mean sometimes **** just falls off the rails and you struggle to keep your head above water. That’s mixing metaphors quite badly, I think.

The Loot Lottery
What makes the gameplay of Borderlands so addictive for some, and what does that have to do with slot machines?
What Does a Robot Want?
