Apparently the Media Powers that Be think an O.C. video game is a good idea. Taken from the CNN writeup:
The style of play is similar to reality-simulation titles like “The Sims,” allowing fans of the show to explore the “O.C.” universe by dressing to impress, joining the right cliques, dating the right people and striving to fit into the ultra-trendy community, [Gameloft president Michel] Guillemot said.
The emphasis is mine. Seriously, now, WTF? Not only do we have girls with body image problems in real life (thank you Tina Fey for accusing Lindsay Lohan of having Mischa Barton arms) and an increasing number of people who feel as though high school is an alien landscape not meant for them but instead for an inimical species bent on their very destruction… but now it’s also attractively packaged, costs $50, and will, in all likelihood, have shitty gameplay?
Yeah, no thanks.
NB: I’m pretty sure a lot of my anger stems from the fact that this season of the O.C. really, really sucks.
BTW: I’m so upgrading to a dual, 2.3 GHz PowerMac soon. I can’t wait.
Great post on Plastic detailing the ins and outs of grilling, marinades, charcoal vs. propane, etc. Got me thinking about my own backyard cookouts that I’m planning this summer.
Specifically, Randy and Gerri’s Gas Grills are for Sissies points to the About.com article listing the top ten grills. I’m thinking of going Weber, in particular the 22-1/2 Inch One-Touch Gold. 22 1/2 inches of diameter sounds like it’s got the room for the steaks, corn, and veggies I’d want to grill for the house.
Sweetness.
Have you heard the one about the woman who found a finger in her Wendy’s chili?
The NBC site has several articles stretching back one month. Read in order, they seem to be the makings of a great shaggy dog story1.
