Look what youâve done to journalism, social media fad!
Whenever I think of a totally pointless fact or joke, I put it up on Twitter. (Omg, follow me! TimOfLegend!) And all my cute pictures of Lili go up on my Facebook page. And that leaves this page for pure, hard news. But Iâm usually so slow and lazy about updating, that most news about us is broken on BrĂźtal! The Legendary Fan Site, which is awesome. So, why put any news here? No reason. I shouldnât even do it. I wonât. I wonât even mention the fact that weâre up for a bunch of awards.
Or, I will only briefly mention them, as if I were being forced at gunpoint to bring up next weekâs Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences Awards, where BrĂźtal Legend has been nominated for Outstanding Character Performance (Eddie Riggs), Outstanding Achievement in Original Story, Outstanding Achievement in Soundtrack, and Strategy/Simulation Game of the Year!
And if the gunman urges me to continue by smacking me on the side of the head with his pistol, I might only then mention that we are nominated for two Game Developers Choice Awards this year, including Best Writing and Best Audio.
But then he might say through his ski mask, âWhat else?â And I would say, âThatâs it!â And he might say, âBut you said âIncluding,â as if those two nominations were part of a longer list.â And Iâd say, âNo, thatâs the whole list.â And heâd say, âWould you say, âThe American flag has three colors on it, including red, white, and blue?â No, you wouldnât!â And Iâd say, âI know, but it sounded good. And really I think there should have been more.â And he might then say, âWell, I would have put you up there for innovation.â And Iâd say, âThanks.â And then he might say, âHell, you know what? Game of the Year, dude! BrĂźtal rocked.â And then we might both nod for a second, and one of us might shrug in a way that kind of says, âEh, whaddya gonna do?â And then Iâd hire him to be my PR manager because of his taste, forceful nature, and gun.
