Shiniest Objects: Stupid Dog
A week of follow ups to major stories from last year, plus Zynga may be showing its true face. We were overly regretful last week, but luckily Justin Gifford was there to shake some sense into us with his first angry letter of 2012. Every day we are on the look out for the most [...]
Shiniest Objects: We Were Heard
Last week was historical. The internet, including plenty of gaming websites, banded together in protest of SOPA and PIPA and by weeks end both bills were put on hold indefinitely. The war isn’t over, but that was a pretty impressive victory. Locally, we debuted our latest podcast show as well as two additional episodes to [...]
Shiniest Objects: Somebody Clean This Up
News in January is just weird. It’s full of pats on the back, wild speculation, and release dates. I miss Epic Release Fall. We get back in the groove with our first full week of being Horrible of the new year which kicks off our first entry in January’s look at Gaming Regrets. Every day [...]
Shiniest Objects: Get Off Your SOPA Box
Finally, the ESA and its members start to get taken to task for supporting SOPA thanks to multiple journalists banding together. SOPA isn’t going away anytime soon, so it’s nice to see it gaining traction in the headlines a bit more. Our short week saw a new weekly series focusing on cheap/free games, although it [...]
Shiniest Objects: Bad Last Year Pun
News kept right on happening as our crew took the week off, but not before announcing our Games of the Year winners! Every day we are on the look out for the most interesting news items in the gaming industry. Some make it on the site as headlines, and the articles that just miss the [...]
Shiniest Objects: The Rest of Us Were Lazy
Indie games stole the scene a bit towards the end of the week after game announcements and patches reminded us we had other games to finish. Ludum Dare was back and it brought us a crop of games in less than 48 hours, that is if you have time for these games after the best [...]
Shiniest Objects: More Bits, Less Awards
Surprising amount of headlines for a non release week, even outside of whatever that “overblown trailer reveal show with some awards in it” was. We put together a handful of editorials focused on the featured games of our Co-op Clash tournament, plus a couple of reviews because someone has to finish all of these games. [...]
Shiniest Objects: Not That Kind of T Club
The industry is spent, and we should all take time to recover before the ceremonial month of patting ourselves on the back for good gaming. EA did manage to confuse us, while Skyrim teased the beginning of its flood of awards, and Nintendo bounced back with tried and true franchises for the 3DS. Here at [...]
Shiniest Objects: Seriously Stuffed
Let’s just catch our breath everyone. For all intents and purposes the madness is over and thankfully for us in America, that meant we had a shortened holiday week. Sales and review sstole most of the headlines, but there was a bit of a legal battle going on amongst all our gaming. While content was [...]
Shiniest Objects: Let the Butts Go
Hopefully this was the last week for a while that the industry will be spending all of its industry discussing review scores. I did not expect that conversation to end with the Jurassic Park game though. At the Night, we relived our marathon highlights, announced our next event, offended everyone, and reviewed 2 more big [...]
Shiniest Objects: Reviews Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right…
Our weekly recap is back on its feet. Follow along to our daily video game industry news highlights on the new Horrible Night Newswire page, we’ll recap the best of that list every Monday as usual. Not surprisingly this weeks headlines were dominated by many many reviews. Here at HN, we went live and celebrated Thanksgiving [...]
Shiniest Objects: Like It Should Be
A large company tried to shut down our Shiniest Objects lifeblood, but we will survive! This week, gaming’s biggest franchise returns, studio troubles and acquisitions, plus that war game sold a lot. We started off our week kinda scared from the best holiday, confused by our lack of game type, and left you with home [...]
