(NVGR) Never trust your service provider for up to date news
JRisJunior | 9:51 PM on 04.08.2009 5 comments


I don't understand it. They have a built in feature that allows you to view videos that (you believe) are up to date. They give you links to stories that (you pray) are current. Now can someone tell me why comcast.net and probably any other service provider, which provides news for you to read while you mozy on through your emails, refuses to give you current news.

I have recently fallen into this pitfall with a previous c-blog i posted. Comcast alerted me to the news (which I believed was current) who the new director of the future Bioshock movie was. If you're not aware of said news story, here. Now as of the posting of this blog, it says the story on comcast was posted 7 hours ago. Really? Are you just digging for news just old enough that nobody would remember reading it? Or are you too lazy to do another story on the starving children in Africa? Or the crisis in the Middle East? Because, believe me, you could probably write all day on those topics and never run out of stories.

Now I ask you, distinguished Destructoid Army: Why the FUCK won't someone stop this from happening?

It's old that he's directing Bioshock, but it's new that he's not directing the next Pirates. Don't feel too bad.

Yeah, don't feel too bad.... the story's all over the net today - specifically non-game and non-film mainstream websites.
