It seems that you can e-mail any videogame related internet meme and they'll front page it, regardless of how the image is. Full article.

Lack of news on the weekend supstituted by something interesting created by the videogame community? Can't be.

Owen Good is good people. Weekends suck for news and they gotta find something to post about.

Also, I don't even fucking understand this TF 2 thing.

@Hamza: Agreed, Owen is a really cool guy. I also have to agree with King3vbo. After visiting Kotaku and here for over 2 years, Kotaku has gotten steadily worse while Dtoid constantly improves.

The TF2 alignment pic isn't even that good... The one with film characters is much better.

OH NOES, Toneman, the folks at Kotaku dun liek u!

Yeah...Kotaku will post anything that gets sent in, including an image with a 50-word blurb, and we're the ones who've "been becoming more and more like 4chan." Riiiight.

I saw a D&D alignment picture in the same format but it was Batman instead of TF2. I got a little chuckle out of it, but what's it doing on the front page?

I thought it was kinda funny but, then, I get the joke too.

I realize that weekends are slow for news but, Sunday alone, Kotaku made something like 30 posts to the front page. So, reaching for this probably wasn't all that necessary.

If weekends are slow, they should develop some columns to have on their front page instead. Kotaku relies so heavily on scavenging things from the internet to supply their content when they could just be making some of their own.
