OXCGN:
"You’re Australian, and you have pined for E3. It’s where every developer and publisher excitedly announces they are pregnant with their upcoming babies; the games we have over the forthcoming years.
"Okay, not the most eloquent analogy ever produced, but you get the point.
"If you live in Oz, you aren’t exactly at the forefront of gaming, that is until this year.
"EB Expo 2011 is this weekend on Australia’s sexy Gold Coast. The EB Games Expo 2011 is Australia’s first gaming event of this magnitude, and as media we will have exclusive access to parts of it.
"Try to contain your excitement, now! What? You aren’t going, live somewhere else, didn’t score a ticket or have a ravenous animal attacking you tomorrow morning?
"Have no fear! OXCGN will be on the floor (and all over the place) providing unrivaled coverage, and the highest quality content of any Australian-based outlet (see we can talk big too!)."
The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).
Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.
Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.
EA is laying off an unknown number of individuals from across its Battlefield teams, including workers at Criterion, Dice, Ripple Effect, and Motive Studios, IGN understands.

When logic meets EA it generates anti-matter ..... so try not to apply it in any meaningful way. Entropy is what matters in there !!
cue the apologist saying that these are mostly just contractors hired for this specific project bla bla bla
Nintendo completed its share repurchase and set its secondary offering price at 8,347 yen ahead of March 16 delivery.

I bet the line-up will be horrendous!
I hope it does well, but I heard it could move to Sydney or Melbourne...they get all the events as it is!
