What Did I Miss In Ten Days?

Pablo the Penguin

Alright, on the fifteenth I went away on a Brigantine (It's a tall masted ship with alot of sailors on it, but that's not important right now). I got back on the twenty fifth, and SON OF A GUN did I miss some sh!t. So there was gamescom and like, a billion announcements. I managed to get a vague idea of all the stuff that happened by scouring the internet, but I still don't have all the details. So here's my request: If you know any major information that was released, or cool things that happened, could you just tell me about them? Maybe put in a link to some cool stuff as well? I'd appreciate it.

Two Hipsters Angrily Call Each Other 'Hipster'

March 29, 2006 | Issue 42•13

AUSTIN, TX—An argument between local hipsters Dan Walters and Brian Guterman has devolved to the point where each is angrily calling the other "hipster," those close to the pair reported Monday. "Hey, hipster! Here's 12 bucks—why don't you go get yourself a bucket of PBRs at the Gold Mine?" Walters, 22, is said to have told Guterman, 22, invoking the name of a local bar known for its "poseur" clientele. "Whatever you say, scenester," Guterman allegedly replied. "Don't you have a Death Cab For Cutie show to be at right now?" Acquaintances of Guterman and Walters trace the long-running conflict back to high school, when they reportedly threw pencils at each other and argued about who was more "emo."

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm was officially announced, Blizzard showed off how battle.net was going to work between games, and Blizzcon brought some info on Starcraft and Diablo.

I had this bug bite that really itched, and then it went away. So that was good.
