    Experienced Points: Microsoft's Chance in Japan

    Yeah, the site layout is still needing some work. I will say this, though...at least we don't need to worry about Shamus accidentally posting the entire article on the front page like he does on his own site. :3

    Experienced Points: Microsoft's Chance in Japan

    Iirc, and I could easily be wrong about that, that's governing by license, so if someone like a radio station has a license to play a certain song, as long as they stay within limits set by that license, they can play it as often or as infrequently as they want. Keep in mind, though, I'm just...

    Experienced Points: No Man's Interface

    Gotta say, it sounded like Shamus had an axe to grind in this column. Or he would have, but he would have needed to hit K to open his inventory, triple-clicked the grindstone to use it with the axe, then had to rapidly tap ` in order to actually grind said axe. :P

    Opinion: On Plagiarism

    That's assuming you can actually get information from other reviewers, since as always, embargoes and NDAs are still a thing. :P

    Neat Tricks/Mechanics You Discovered AFTER Beating a Game

    Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Wasn't until after I'd beaten that and Revelations that I knew you could cancel the counter animations to do another counter. Would have made that one fight in Brotherhood much easier to get through without taking damage. :/

    Escapist Under New Management (Again)

    Yep, saw it on Twitter not long after being announced. Got a rather large bone to pick with my Rising Tide review. :P

    The Big Picture: Polarity Contest

    It was offered to him, but he declined. There's a number of possible reasons, but I think the risk of blowback from The Jimquisition affecting the site is a big one.

    Editor's Note Escapist Magazine Volume 2: Issue 0

    It's not surprising. Half the appeal being indie has for him is not being tied to any publisher or beholden to their opinion of him, and if he got say, EA particularly riled up, that could cause blowback here if he's associated with the site outside of all the old videos. It really works better...

    Escapist Under New Management (Again)

    I'm mostly waiting for Russ to say they're taking submissions again, since there's a few things that need...correcting when it comes to my own work. >:D

    I believe so. I was running through multiple forums groups earlier trying to see if there was anything about ZP not being posted, so I've seen most of the still-used areas recently. :P

    Editor's Note Escapist Magazine Volume 2: Issue 0

    At the risk of derailing this thread off of the "Welcome back Russ, hope you unscrew everything that happened here since you left" track... Sounds like you could have made another thread for that instead of butting in on Russ' welcome back parade. All things considered, a delay in ZP is...

    Escapist Under New Management (Again)

    Isn't that why the little *New!* icon appears near the forum name, so you can say "Oh hey look, there's something new in a barely-used section of the forum! :O" instead of being "When the heck was this thread made? Why was I not informed about this new thread?"

    Escapist Under New Management (Again)

    Considering that getting Bob back was one of the first things Russ did, that states an intent, at the very least, to bring things to a more centralized point. Considering it's been 7 years since he was involved in anything here outside of being on the ending credits of ZP, I'd imagine some of...

    Not officially, but she'll still probably be giving advice/smacking him in the head on occasion. :D

    We'll start calling it the SR-2. That'll make certain it doesn't crash that badly. :D
