Spoilers Say Goodnight
FyreWulff noticed that the spoiler cookie we had had expired - so no newsposts marked with a 'spoiler' tag could be seen. Since there haven't BEEN any newsposts marked with a spoiler tag in a year and a half (and only a handful in the year or two before that), I decided it's time to retire the cookie system. At some point, all code that reads cookies will be removed - but for now, the system is hardcoded to give everyone a 'read all' setting. (This isn't currently true with the RSS feed - but since there's no way to see 18-month-old newsposts in the RSS feed, this should be irrelevant.) We'll continue the current policy of not posting news with spoilers without warning - but at the moment, there's not a problem with that, either. (Louis Wu 20:18:26 UTC) (permalink) 
Dance Little Liar
Pierre Tartaix told us about a new machinima from TGO GMBH - Dance Little Liar tells a sad tale of cowardice and betrayal, but does so without any spoken dialogue. (As with their last vid, all text is in comic balloons.) This video is available on YouTube and Vimeo, as well as their own site. (Louis Wu 15:06:11 UTC) (permalink) 
1UP's 2010 Picks
1UP.com is looking at the Top 10 Xbox 360 Games of 2010 (maybe a little early) - Halo: Reach makes the list. Definitely in good company there. (Louis Wu 15:05:51 UTC) (permalink) 
Best of the Rest, Continued
Two more Joystiq editors weighed in on their 'Best of the Rest' feature (we mentioned it yesterday) - and both Kevin and Richard put Halo Wars on their lists. Nice! (Louis Wu 15:05:18 UTC) (permalink) 
The Province's Top Games of the Decade
Halo 2 made The Province's (part of Canada.com) Top games of the decade article. It "changed the way people played games." (No argument here...)
