Videogame Statistics

None of this is a surprise to me. Though I'm kinda curious in the breakdown of the average gamer age.

FARMVILLE!!!

Normally I don't have a problem with these games since they have made a lot more people into gamers. But please stop telling me about your cows and ducks! Luckily Facebook allows you to mute applications directly these days.

Tolstoy Goes Steampunk in "Android Karenina" - io9

Tolstoy Goes Steampunk in "Android Karenina"

The latest scifi/lit mashup to emerge from Quirk Books, publishers of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, is a silly re-imagining of the famously humorless novel Anna Karenina. It's called Android Karenina, and the publisher promises what sound like steampunk cylons.

Again, we seem to be on a trend of remaining the classics of the past with all the elements of class and culture that we don't understand replaced with supernatural elements. I think it's a fine way to make the classics work for the masses. And when I say masses I mean me.
