Final Fantasy XIV: Best Graphics from Square-Enix Ever? : Product Reviews Net - Annotated
- It is fair to say that Square-Enix are one of the big boys when it comes to pushing the graphical capabilities of hardware they use for each title they release. We’ve just taken a look at their new CG trailer for Final Fantasy XIV, and I’m pretty sure the graphics are the best I’ve ever seen from the company.

Video Games Win a Beachhead in the Classroom - NYTimes.com - Annotated
- One morning last winter I watched a middle-school teacher named Al Doyle give a lesson, though not your typical lesson. This was New York City, a noncharter public school in an old building on a nondescript street near Gramercy Park, inside an ordinary room that looked a lot like all the other rooms around it, with fluorescent lights and linoleum floors and steam-driven radiators that hissed and clanked endlessly.

Inquiry Focuses on White House Role in Preserving Union Pensions at Delphi
(September 15, 2010)
FLINT, Mich. — By day, hundreds of General Motors workers make pistons and other engine parts at a factory on this city’s east side. By night, gangs of thieves have repeatedly looted empty G.M. plants on the same property, and have twice fired shots at security guards.

A vandalized truck at a plant in Lansing.
The scene at Flint North, as the complex of mostly closed factories is known, is a vivid reminder that the automaker’s bankruptcy last year gave birth to two different G.M.’s — and that one of them is struggling in the shadow of the other.

Home | Gratuitous Space Battles
Gratuitous Space Battles aims to bring the over-the-top explodiness back into space strategy games. The game is for everyone who has watched big space armadas battle it out on TV and thought to themselves 'I could have done a much better job as admiral'. This is not a game of real-time arcade twitch reflexes. GSB is about what ships you design, and what you tell them to do. Your individual ship commanders have total autonomy during the chaotic battle that unfolds. This is not a tactical game, it is a strategic one. These gratuitous space battles are not won by plucky heroes with perfect teeth, but by the geeky starship builders who know exactly what ratio of plasma-cannons to engines each ship in the fleet will need.
