I thought it’d be nice to come back to this series. It should at least get me into the rhythm of writing and that’s a good enough reason, to be honest.
The idea is simple: I gather interesting links to websites, shops, video game trailers and news. Anything that I found worth reading/looking over/buying. Be prepared for frontend coding, nice books and usually some game-related content as well.

What’s Scrimba? It’s an interactive way to learn by looking at someone else code. How cool is that?!

» 40 Years of TASCHEN
I don’t have them yet, but I’m totally getting at least a few. In these A5-sized albums with at least 250 pages, you’ll find works by artists like HR Giger, Vermeer, Bosch or the Grimm Brothers. They also have ~A4 versions and ever bigger ones, but being bookshelf-conscious, I’m going for the compact-ish size. Shipping over 75 EUR is free.

» Report: EA Looking To Sell Or Merge
I hope it’s not gonna be Sony. I wouldn’t like Take-Two to be the merger. Xbox is always a good choice, but that would be too much. We will know soon I guess. Kotaku reports that they’re chasing companies like Apple or Disney, so basically outside of the gaming industry. That’s good.
» EA to cut customer support staff in US and Ireland
In the meantime, they’re also laying off about a hundred support workers from US and Ireland. It sadly means that we may lose the great phone help centre to an outsourced one.
» TrackerNetwork now supports Battlefield 2042
If you want to measure your… stats from Battlefield 2042, now you can! It’s not perfect yet, but it’s a very good start. There are classic values like K/D, time spent in-game and number of kills with specialists and specific weapons/vehicles. Sadly, it doesn’t show you (hopefully, yet) how your kills with specific specialist/weapon compares across the network. I’d love to know that I’m the LCMG queen.
