• Nightly Roundup #505


    So what do you give an adorkable egghead for candy? A chocolate book of course! I wonder what sort of filling a chocolate book would have anyway and do you have to watch out for paper cuts?

    Anyhow, time for some news you guys! Hope your Thanksgiving or Thursday was fun!

    Ponies Appear in French Videogame Article

    The Gamerloft pony game (which I still haven't been able to play. Arg!) has hit the news over in France in a newspaper called "Le Monde Économie" which is a left-wing general economics newspaper. The article speaks about the evolution of videogaming and such, mentioning and displaying ponies in the process. If you can read French I'm sure it's a good read!
