Scraps

I don't really have a lot of time tonight. If it's any indication of how busy I've been, I have only had the opportunity to play through a single level of Mega Man 9. Shameful, I know. I'd wish for more hours in the day, but I know I'd just fill them with more work.

Everybody at Destructoid has been hard at work today. Nevertheless, they're always kind enough to leave a little something for me at the end of the day. Have a good night, all.

  • Midway Games is looking to score $40 million from National Amusments by selling off accounts. Sounds like Shari Redstone is asking her daddy for cash. [GamesIndustry]
