Today’s top 10 tweets from the gaming industry – 4/22/13

A year ago, I had a daily column where I would post 10 tweets from people in the gaming industry I found awesome, informative, weird, funny, stupid, or whatever, and then give some commentary on them. Today, that column returns. I know, it's the moment you've all been waiting for. Whatever did you do in the year where it was absent…

Anyway, here's what some of the most popular people in the gaming industry are saying today:

I'm of the firm belief that Ken Levine could take a sh*t into my Xbox and it would be one of the best things I've played this console generation. I don't call BioShock Infinite "BSI," but I would totally play a game where you're Booker as a Pinkerton agent.

First of all, I had no idea that's what Yahtzee looked like. Secondly, hearing him recite poetry would be a great way to fall asleep. Thirdly, I need more of this.

Well, I learned something today. GameZone, like every other site, has been spelling it Splinter Cell: Blacklist. My world is rocked right now. Also, if you didn't see, Splinter Cell Blacklist released a trailer that showcases the Wii U GamePad features. Check it out.

Ha. Haha. Hahahahahaha. Come on guys, it's just fun and games. Cheetah speed is back in SimCity so all's good, right?

I'll tell you what happened, @IGNUK. For a decade, there were about five World War II first-person shooters released every year. It was ridiculous. I don't need any new WWII shooters in my life at this time. If I get a craving for one, I can go play any of the ones already released. Please, just give me a few more years and wait for people to start asking for WWII shooters again. That said, does anyone still play Day of Defeat? Just announced: Activision and EA announced that they plan to release 20 new WWII-themed shooters in the next two years. Also, 343 is making the next Halo take place during D-Day.

Tweet of the Day

Okay, so my Tweet of the Day goes to me. My column, my rules. I loved the trailer for Splinter Cell Blacklist on the Wii U. However, I noticed a typo that wasn't actually a typo. In the trailer, Camerb morphs into Camera. I didn't see that and tweeted to @SplinterCell like an idiot. So this is pretty much me calling myself out for being a d-bag. Some good came of it, though; @Z_Cooperstown, community developer for @UbisoftToronto and I had a wonderful, little conversation about sports in the cities of Toronto and Miami.

Make sure you follow everyone mentioned in this column on Twitter, because they're funny, offer insight into the gaming industry, and are generally just really cool people. Also, if you've got a good tweet that has been re-tweeted by someone in the gaming industry, submit it to me via email and I'll post the good ones. Thanks for reading!
