Report: PS4’s 3.00 beta firmware is adding YouTube broadcasting, Twitter clips, more!
PS4 is getting into the YouTube Gaming Extravaganza Broadcasting business with their next firmware (beta) update. The firmware update is also bringing Twitter clips, and more. Sure, neat, whatever. When the futz will I be able to pin my favorite apps? When will I be able to change my PSN name? You know. Being selfish. Stuff I care about.
‘Twin Peaks’ revival starting production in September; looking at 2016 premiere

Tom Hardy producing and starring in adaptation of comic ‘100 Bullets’

Blizzard job posting points at more ‘Diablo 3’ content coming

Ernie Cline (‘Ready Player One’) is writing third sci-fi novel; has signed enormous deal for publication rights
Ernie Cline is not a good writer. RPO was a decent, enjoyable pastiche. I read the description for Armada and laughed out loud. And yet despite both of those bullshit notes, I’m glad he’s making bank off of his cheap peddling of 1980s nerd nostalgia. ‘Cause that’s pretty much what I wish I was doing in life.
