Slothbot is just about dead

If me not updating in about a year wasn't a clue, slothbot is just about deceased. However, I will be resuming some articles over at gamecola.net again and, possibly, reposting them over here. Also, if I have more time and leave gamecola in the future then perhaps I'll update this more often. So it isn't entirely dead. Just mostly.

[ProcrastinationBot] Kill time, take a quiz

So I haven't updated for damn near 5 months, that doesn't mean I haven't been doing anything. I've only been doing NEXT to nothing. One thing I've been working on is a time-waster that's great for killing time when you're supposed to be doing useful things like paying bills, doing homework or watching an infant.

It works like this:
Atari put out a lot of games when they were on top of their game, many of which had cartridge and box art that depicted the kind of rich, detailed fantasy worlds that the Atari 2600's limited graphical capacity couldn't even dream of rendering. Hell, videogames couldn't render that kind of stuff effectively until the PS2 era of games.

The test leaves it up to you to look at the cartridge label art and decide from there which screenshot is the game that it represents. So click the link below, take the test and kill some time until the next time I update.

I'm back

Between getting married, going on a honeymoon, getting fired, doing drug tests, doing interviews, getting hired, having my xbox break, sending said xbox in for repairs, etc, etc it's been hectic around here as of recent but Slothbot is finally back. No content right now but just an update on the state of the blog. From now on there's going to be some changes here as follows:

1. No more news. Unless I really have something to say about it I'm skipping actual news. Kotaku, Destructoid and Joystiq cover it all much better than I could possibly hope to in my free time by myself so go read them for news. This blog will, for the time being at least, only be columns, reviews and some other crap I feel like throwing up here.

2. I'm tired of censoring myself and, as such, this blog is going to start being the filth pit it was always meant to be. (I'll keep pictures SFW though)

3. Lists don't feel right unless there's at least three items.

So that's all. In lieu of actual slothbot content you can go check out this month's Gamecola where I contributed to Versus Mode and, of course, check out all the other stuff there as well.
