Google Sets Its Sights On Gaming, Hires Noah Falstein As Chief Game Designer
MojoKid writes "Google has its hands in every other aspect of the tech industry, so why not gaming, too? It appears as though the company is eyeing a run at the gaming market by hiring Noah Falstein as its 'Chief Game Designer.' Falstein's LinkedIn profile has been updated to reflect his new title, which is the latest in a long career. He started out in 1980 and put in time at (the recently-defunct) Lucasfilm Games as well as 3DO and Dreamworks Interactive."
...Emulators aren't very satisfying on my Nexus 7 because a flat sheet of glass lacks any tactile feedback as to where the thumbs are relative to the on-screen buttons....
Dude, it's a fucking phone, of course it's not good for emulators. My sink isn't good for taking a bath, but can get me clean if needed.
You want a device that is good for emulators? There a a ton of cheap android devices for that: http://dingoo-scene.blogspot.com/ You can find reviews of various ones there.
As much as you want to have 1 device to rule them all, it's not going to happen anytime soon.
Be seeing you...
Orthogonal means (roughly) perpendicular in a multidimensional space. If you have two orthogonal lines, they meet at a single point. If one of those lines represents business skill, and the other line represents programming skill, it means they hardly have any overlap. A person can be completely good at one skill, and completely bad at the other, or vice versa.
The word means exactly what I think it does.
