While You Were Sleeping

Kotaku AU

While you snored through your Australia Day booze and food hangover, I was up working to make sure you had something to read when you finally roused from your drooltastic slumber. Here’s what happened overnight.

The nosy bastards over at the New York Times are making us all feel guilty again for having iPhones and consoles made from the blood, sweat and tears (literally) of slaves in Foxconn. Amongst some of the revelations is that your iPhone would cost an extra $65 if it was made in the US. Also, working conditions at Namco Bandai reportedly drove a programmer to commit suicide. What a nasty world we live in.

Totilo’s review of third-person shooter Resident Evil: Revelations is out this morning, and he describes it as one of the best games on 3DS right now with amazing graphics, although the storytelling leaves something to be desired.

In short:
Steam Releases Mobile App For Android And iOS
The Witcher 2 On Xbox 360 Is, Thankfully, Still Very Much The Witcher 2
The Wii U Will Be Out By Christmas In Australia
Nintendo Money Printing Press Is Finished, Huge Losses Expected

      I went to eat Pho with a friend and then watched season 2 of Modern Family. All of it.

      When he was a puppy, Bam Bam used to curl up between my legs while I lay on the floor reading or whatever. This is the only picture I have though of him doing it.

        first of all

        Bam Bam? LOVE IT, THAT IS TOO CUTE….daaaww
        *cough*, sorry don’t quite know what happened there… i seem to go completely soft around dogs…

        and it’s funny the habits they develop, mine used to steal my socks, only to use them as a pillow to sleep on… no kidding it would go into my room, get socks off the floor (i was a teenager at the time and a messy one at that) and go into the living room, put it down and lay it’s head on them….

    Nintendo should buy a pill press for when their cash machine is in for repairs!
