    EA Takes 'Medal of Honor' Series "Out of Rotation"

    RIP MOH:AA. It was a good run. Fond memories of using a sniper rifle to own face on "realism servers", where people modded SMGs and MGs to be 1 shot kills.

    Apple Acknowledges iOS 6 Maps Failure, Hiring New Devs

    Because Google Maps is so accurate, right? Right? If you were to use Google Maps to go to the major car dealership in my town, or JCPenney, it would put you two miles in completely the wrong direction - in an open field...

    No PvP Mode in Diablo 3 at Launch, Says Blizzard

    SaucyRMDPvP was always such a broken part of Diablo as it was.

The reason people burn out so quick is because developers dumb down or nerf boss encounters into the dirt in the name of accessibility and appeasing the people who don't want to put in the effort instead of pushing the community to...
