Bruins. Penguins. Game 3. TD Garden in Boston. Tonight at 7pm.

Meh. Are the Red Sox in town, I want to see Fenway.

Yeah they are...can't go wrong with either honestly. The Bruins are a hell of a lot more exciting to watch than the Red Sox, but Fenway is a cool place to visit.

Bruins win in 2nd overtime on Patrice Bergeron's game winning goal! Up 3 games to none on the Penguins who are basically supposed to be the NHL's version of the Miami Heat. Game 4 Friday night.

It was my Jurassic Park moment. Thank you comrade Bugsy!

Zeldas' Aonuma said:

"I only have about ten more years to make games at Nintendo"

Eiji Aonuma has worked on the Zelda series for 15 years now, and has been responsible for some truly amazing entries in this beloved franchise. However, in a recent interview with EDGE magazine, he has revealed that he'd like to try other things before he retires:

I'm 50 now, so I only have about ten more years to make games at Nintendo. I want to try all sorts of new things before it's too late — I don't want to get to the end of my career and only have worked on Zelda. But every time I come up with some good new ideas, they end up being used in a Zelda game! I need a six-month break to get away from the Zelda cycle and focus on something new [laughs]. But I'd probably end up making a game that is similar to Zelda; after all, A Link to the Past was my biggest influence.

PS4/X1 clock speeds aren't a good measure of performance

Avalanche Studios says "Modern processors are capable of processing much more data than last-gen processors, even at lower clock-speeds."

Nice. Where was the common sense when U's CPU-and-memory bandwidth were getting incessantly bashed? Now we actually hear people explaining the benefits of eSRAM and modern CPUs with lower clocks. Slightly ridiculous.

HUGE Xbox news, MS details used games.

;font-family:'wf_SegoeUI', 'Segoe UI', Segoe, 'Segoe WP', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:15px;line-height:1.5;">Here are our platform policies and capabilities for game licensing – all of which will be made available when Xbox One launches later this year:

• Buy the way you want—disc or digital—on the same day: You’ll be able to buy disc-based games at traditional retailers or online through Xbox Live, on day of release. Discs will continue to be a great way to install your games quickly.
  
• Access your entire games library from any Xbox One—no discs required: After signing in and installing, you can play any of your games from any Xbox One because a digital copy of your game is stored on your console and in the cloud.  So, for example, while you are logged in at your friend’s house, you can play your games.
  
• Share access to your games with everyone inside your home: Your friends and family, your guests and acquaintances get unlimited access to all of your games.  Anyone can play your games on your console--regardless of whether you are logged in or their relationship to you.
  
• Give your family access to your entire games library anytime, anywhere: Xbox One will enable new forms of access for families. Up to ten members of your family can log in and play from your shared games library on any Xbox One. Just like today, a family member can play your copy of Forza Motorsport at a friend’s house. Only now, they will see not just Forza, but all of your shared games.  You can always play your games, and any one of your family members can be playing from your shared library at a given time.
  
• Trade-in and resell your disc-based games: Today, some gamers choose to sell their old disc-based games back for cash and credit. We designed Xbox One so game publishers can enable you to trade in your games at participating retailers.  Microsoft does not charge a platform fee to retailers, publishers, or consumers for enabling transfer of these games.
  
• Give your games to friends: Xbox One is designed so game publishers can enable you to give your disc-based games to your friends. There are no fees charged as part of these transfers. There are two requirements: you can only give them to people who have been on your friends list for at least 30 days and each game can only be given once.
  

;font-family:'wf_SegoeUI', 'Segoe UI', Segoe, 'Segoe WP', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;">In our role as a game publisher, Microsoft Studios will enable you to give your games to friends or trade in your Xbox One games at participating retailers. Third party publishers may opt in or out of supporting game resale and may set up business terms or transfer fees with retailers.  Microsoft does not receive any compensation as part of this. In addition, third party publishers can enable you to give games to friends. Loaning or renting games won’t be available at launch, but we are exploring the possibilities with our partners.

;font-family:'wf_SegoeUI', 'Segoe UI', Segoe, 'Segoe WP', Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;">As we move into this new generation of games and entertainment, from time to time, Microsoft may change its policies, terms, products and services to reflect modifications and improvements to our services, feedback from customers and our business partners or changes in our business priorities and business models or for other reasons.  We may also cease to offer certain services or products for similar reasons.

So did I see that up to ten "family members" can play all my games anywhere, anytime?! Wow.

There is a whole lot of "its up to publishers" in there. This is all EA and Activisions doing. PS4 will do the same with those games.

Clever. They've put it on the publishers, where technically the blame really does belong anyway. Got a feeling it's going to end up being an all or nothing thing with the industry. There's no way EA can get away with it on their own. But if EA and Activision and Ubisoft all do it... all the little guys will join it.
