I have tried a few Forza games over the years but never really got into any of them. I don’t think I've done more than a handful of races across all the previous Forza games. By contrast, I got a review copy of Forza 6 last Tuesday from MS and I have already put 22 hours into it. So what happened? It was a commercial. This commercial actually. The last racing game I really got into was Ridge Racer Type 4 on the original Playstation. This game came out back in 1998 when Tycho and I were…
Apple was always a cult, but now it's a cult based on a cult. The revelation has been attenuated, interpreted, made progressively less divine until you see a presentation like the one they gave the other day.
