LucasArts recently let slip that their SW: Obi Wan has been delayed until early 2001. Looking at the last few Star Wars releases, and reflecting on the constructive delays Jedi Knight suffered, this is probably a good thing. Make it shine, young Padewan.

Remember that story about Indianapolis banning violent arcade games? Well, according to the Associated Press there's been a ruling on it. US District Judge David Hamilton deemed constitutional the new law that requires arcade owners to prevent minors from playing violent games. Hamilton said, "It would be an odd conception of the First Amendment ... that would allow a state to prevent a boy from purchasing a magazine containing pictures of topless women in provocative poses, but give that same boy a constitutional right to train to become a sniper at the local arcade without his parents' permission."

Let's hear that one more time: “(T)rain to become a sniper.” And here I thought I was just wasting quarters in arcades all this time. I've been training to be a sniper! YES! What do snipers make per year, by the way? I mean, take home.

Anyway, the way is clear. Judge Hamilton is obviously arguing that it's time to make pictures of topless women in provocative poses legal for minors to buy. So, step right up Level Designer, Playmate and Daikatana co-designer Stevie “Killcreek” Case!
