- Kotaku: game developers in Vienna are trying to get gaming out of the home and into the city's famous coffeehouses to encourage the social aspect. During the day, families can play video games in the soothing atmosphere of these cafes, and at night the games head to night clubs to be played against the backdrop of European electronica. Cool stuff!
- In a story better than your average fiction, a Russian woman crosses two oceans to be with her girlfriend. Not only is this a feel-good gay story with a happy ending, but it also points out how the internet has really changed things for gay people, and for the better (well, sometimes. Definitely in this story).
Today's critical rolls: Would you rather play video games in a social setting like a coffeehouse or LAN party or internet cafe? Or do you prefer to pwn noobs in the privacy of your own home?
Critical Writ has a super-duper strict comment policy that specifies a single rule above all others: we reserve the right to ban you for being a terribad citizen of the internet.
