kokoromi is making a very cool looking new game called "fez." Fez has the look of a standard pixelated platformer, replete with cutesy characters and whimsical worlds. The key difference is that it gets rendered to play as a 3d game. Nifty.
Quoted: Experiment!

Cool music discovered in the tv show Lost, from Season 1 Episode 3: "Tabula Rasa."

Apparently Jeff announced that Amazon will be launching Pay-Per-View streaming service next week. I wonder what that entails and if it will work as well as my Tivo 3/Unbox connection right now? Will I also be able to access music subscriptions?

Quoted: Chris Gaffney, a roots-music omnivore whose earthy aplomb and offhand mastery of many styles made him a quintessential Southern California bar musician -- but who also earned international regard for his heartfelt and witty songwriting -- has died. He was 57.

Apple = 2 million DRM-free songs
Amazon = 4.5 million DRM-free songsQuoted: Amazon's MP3 store - which sells only songs without copy protection - has quietly become No. 2 in digital sales since opening nearly six months ago. That's even though Apple dominates digital music with its iTunes Store (the second-largest music retailer in the world, after Wal-Mart) and its hugely popular iPod.

Yeah. This is what I've been wanting to encourage me to pick up guitar again. It's like Guitar Hero with a real guitar. The video looks great!
Quoted: I never got the whole Guitar Hero Rock Band and their fake guitars playing thingie which require so much practice

Speculation on where Amazon might take the Kindle platform development next... MUSIC! A device with wireless subscription access to all music would be great!
Quoted: 1. Make its MP3 store global. 2. Make a WWAN-equipped MP3 player hooked into the music store, a la Kindle. 3. Profit. Profit like God-damned crazy.

If you want to do something fun, go listen to this isolated David Lee Roth vocal track from "Runnin' with the Devil." (It's at the bottom of the short article). Sweet!

I just noticed that too! (in fact - I came to this page via Google after looking at analytics!).

And this Fave is over 4 months old. Did the game just launch? Why the sudden burst of traffic?
Here it is. Fez was awarded Excellence in Visual Art and the Design Excellence award at the Independent Game Festival.

Hey, that's quite cool! Considering the counter has only clicked up a couple more notches, it appears that my Google love may be dying off but it's nifty to know that so many people ended up digging this game. It sure looked innovative to me! Go Kokoromi Fez! Searching for Kokoromi Fez brings up this Fave as #6 in the results right now. Now just imagine if people coming here from Google had been able to participate in the discussion somehow! Wink wink.
Yes, public comments would be cool!
