What Happened This Week – How to Anger Birds and Fire People
Howdy-ho, folks! Slight hiccup in this recording as my old, reliable headset mic finally gave up the ghost. Had to rely on a backup mic stand that picked up an unfortunate amount of reverb and background noise. Editing got the worst of it, but I do apologize for the lower quality. Anyway, here’s what we have today:
- Rovio’s Peter Vesterbacka responds to Nintendo, provides easily abused out of context quote about “$49 pieces of plastic.” Let the Wang Chung comparisons begin!
- 3DTV’s downfall: Is $3000 too expensive to see Blazing Saddles the way it was meant to be seen?
- Sales tracker NPD restricts its data from direct media access, claims it’s not freezing out the media. At least now when know when Opposite Day is.
- Sizable layoffs at Sony Online Entertainment kill The Agency, and we learn how Volition was secretly awesome all this time.
- God I hate April Fools’ Day.
- Zynga Japan gets a new CEO, buys out even more talent, and insists there’s still gold out there.
- Apple vs E3, G4 and GamePro caught paying someone to spam reddit article comments, and more!
