The Mariners are up 7-2 on the As. Looks like the Sawx are going to clinch the #1 seed before they even take the field tonight. If so, John Farrell should pull Lester after about 75 pitches, regardless of the score, and let someone like Workman pitch the rest of the game at that point. Time to start resting guys and giving potential pinch hitters and utility guys/non-everyday players/lesser used pitchers that may make the postseason roster some at-bats/innings. Edit: Also, The Tribe is up 5-1 in the 8th. Looks like they're going to take over sole possession of the top wild card slot.

Regardless of what stats people want to use, Trout has no chance of winning the MVP because he's on a chump team. You pretty much have to be on a playoff team, or at least on a team that contended for playoffs right until the end, to even have a chance at MVP.

Gah. Judging by the comments on the Kickstarter page, design B is a long shot to make the cut, probably mostly because glasses. People just don't know a good thing when they see it. Design B has an awesome hat, a sweet vest & tie combo, and modular, multi-function hair that retracts in to a bun. I'm willing to bet design F is going to win because it's the closest to Roll and the "sexiest" design.

That 3-way tie still looking that shocking? Oh man, I hope it happens. Not only would that be thrilling, it's the best case scenario for the Sawx.

Well, I mean, it's Linux, so you'll be able to do with it what you can do with any other Linux distribution, which is to say, whatever you want. Steam itself is proprietary, so not much you can do with that, outside of what Valve allows you to (it would be cool if they open sourced parts of Steam, but I'm not holding my breath), but outside of Steam, especially the underlying kernel, libraries, and stack of open source apps, you can do with as you desire. If you want to turn it into a print server running on a coffee machine, you can turn it into a print server running on a coffee machine.

Sawx won and now can finish no lower than tied for the best record in the AL (all the majors for that matter). They already have the 6th most wins in the Sawx' history, not too shabby for a team many people though would finish near the bottom of the division. I still don't fully understand how the tiebreakers work. I know head to head is the first and it's 3-3 between the Sawx and As. After that it gets complicated. I'm loving this race for the wild card. It's going to come down to the very last day, and while these 3 teams are exhausting themselves, scratching and clawing for those 2 spots, the Sawx can rest up and set their rotation for optimal ass kicking. I'm hoping for the 3-way tie so these 3 team can even further deplete their rotation and bullpen and the survivor will come in thoroughly drained to their series with the Sawx.

I saw that Dead Island Riptide is free this weekend on Steam, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I played it for just under an hour, long enough to remind me why I wound up hating the first game, then promptly uninstalled it.

If Obsidian kickstarts a space opera RPG, would you back it?

Update 24 Holy smokes! Design B is amazing! I love it so much. The hat, the glasses, the vest and tie. It;s all so great. I pray it wins. If you don't have a different favorite, vote B!

Hopefully they set up kiosks in some stores so people can try the controller, and a Steam Machine, for that matter.

It's made so any simpleton can just plug it in and go, like a console. You can already do everything a Steam Machine does with your current PC, Valve even stated so implicitly. Steam Machines makes it simple so mom can buy it for little Timmy and plug it in and boom it just works.

The game will feature 33% more underpants gnomes.

It has 16 buttons. Plus however many buttons you can cram on the touchscreen.

The ideal solution for FPS would be an accelerometer like the 3DS, Vita, and phones have, only if it was more sensitive and precise. The accelerometer aiming scheme in Resident Evil: Revelations on 3DS is by far the most natural and intuitive aiming scheme I have used on any device ever for FPS. It's essentially like pointing a camera and taking a picture, but it only works well if you don't have to turn very far, which is great for a corridor type game like Revelations, but sucks when you're out in a big open battlefield. Edit: Now that I think about it, that might not work so well if the screen is separate from the controller.

It does sound rather functional. Of course, I'd have to hold one in my hands and use it to know for sure. I'm not sure those trackpads are big enough to do precision aiming in FPS games. You'd either have a degree of turning or it would have to be overly sensitive and twitchy to allow you to turn far.

The third announcement is indeed a controller: http://store.steampowered.com/livingroom/SteamController/ That thing is fugly!

I would argue that amnesia is a worse narrative device. And this is coming from someone who loves both Amnesia: The Dark Descent (haven't played the new one yet) and The Witcher series. -
One does not simply walk into Mordor. One rides a train into Mordor. One of these days I'm going to either pick this up or Euro Truck Simulator. I need a nice chill game to take a break from the endless treadmill of constantly murdering in video games.

Space Fans: X Rebirth has a Release Date!

Trading and mining trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfJOYeJfD9c It's like they made the trailer specifically for me. Trading is my jam in space sims. On behalf of Chairman Ceo, the Teladi company wish you great profit and welcome you onboard. The level of detail on the capital ships and stations is staggering. Too bad my lappy won't be able to handle this at maximum eye orgasm. Hopefully I can push mid-level eye orgasm until I build a new rig some 9 or 10 months from now. -
A 3 week long countdown?

Yes. I would even back a pony hair brushing simulator in Obsidian kickstarted one of those (I would ESPECIALLY back a pony hair brushing simulator ). I would MUCH rather have hard sci-fi than space opera, though. Better yet, a modern espionage RPG. One that does not in any way shape or form resemble a modern espionage RPG published by SEGA that had the best conversation system ever put in a RPG. It would star Rikel Norton and they could call it Epsilon Covenant.
