Yesterday when the news broke, I checked on one of our newer sites, TechSpy to make sure the story was live. For big news, you cant count on N4G to take care of itself, sure enough.
Interestingly, some N4G users object to the news as “not gaming related” – which is, after all, one of the first criteria for submitting something to the site! I still don’t see where they’re coming from on this. Steve Jobs was the founder and vision behind a company that created multiple gaming devices – devices that have their own channels on N4G! Devices that have spawned gaming genres and franchises with their own plushies. All this without getting into a Macs as gaming platforms kerfuffle (or mentioning Pixar). Maybe it’s the death part that just isn’t gaming related enough in a culture that’s come to count on respawn.
Keep the iDevice batteries at half power today.
