BLUE MAN

What does it mean to "feel blue"?

Can people have blue skin?

"Blue Man" on the show 30 Rock did.

A post by @simon reminded me of this song.

Last Friday for NetLink Night, we tried out Farkus’ latest version of Utenyaa. It streams player-made characters and maps to play right then and there! Really cool.

Here’s a video of us playing on the map I made, “Dansfield.”

Happy 31st anniversary to the Sega Saturn in North America!!!

Decades later, the Saturn is still being played and appreciated, from the original releases to fan-translated classics to newly developed games.

Many countries celebrated Mother's Day yesterday, so it's fitting that one of the previously unknown passwords Bo Bayles found in the Sega Saturn's Virtual Golf is "MOM"! See what it does in this week's Under the Microscope:

Then Shadowmask and Joe played some co-op Duke Nukem 3D while NoiseDemon and I raced in Sega Rally — a connection between the U.S. and Poland! It ran great.
