If you play the Apocalypto trailer, go to the spot where you see the screaming monkey face at ~75%, then use the left arrow to step back a few seconds. Amid the horrible images of desperate conflict, you will see this:

Borderlands Series
A look at the main Borderlands games. What works, what doesn't, and where the series can go from here.
Bethesda’s Launcher is Everything You Expect
From the company that brought us Fallout 76 comes a storefront / Steam competitor. It's a work of perfect awfulness. This is a monument to un-usability and anti-features.
Do It Again, Stupid
One of the highest-rated games of all time has some of the least interesting gameplay.
Overused Words in Game Titles

Programming Vexations
Here is a 13 part series where I talk about programming games, programming languages, and programming problems.
Just because I can… FIRST! :D
That’s the most awesome thing. Ever.
No… way… O_o;;
First the Where’s Waldo scene in the pile of corpses, and now this? Was Mel even trying when he made this?
If you flip back and forth a bit, notice how their facial expressions changes when Mel is on camera and when he’s off camera. Also, one of those guys is getting butt-sex.

PS. Before accusations start pouring in, I have been a big fan of Mel’s work, including the Lethal Weapon series AND The Passion. I am a Christian and was moved when I watched The Passion. Admittedly, I had to actively focus on the worship aspects of the film and ignore the hype, but these are the days we live in.
funny.
Wow, step buttons! Never noticed those before.
Cool. I was just pausing like a fiend and hit it just right.
And I’ll be posting to LJ about this later. :) (Linking back here.)
Remember this device being used on Fight Club?
Several scenes before Brad Pitt’s character is introduced, while Edward Norton is still lamenting and explaining his existence to us, single frames are imposed with Brad Pitt leaning on a character here, or standing in the background elsewhere (the only scene I can think of now is the men’s cancer group scene… methinks).
