Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

LulzSec Leaders Arrested, Former Head Gives Up Cohorts

Posted on Tuesday, March 6 @ 11:36:06 Eastern by

After a spring of hacking and disruptive attacks on the likes of the CIA, BioWare, Sony, Nintendo, and Minecraft, LulzSec's reign of anonymity has ended in the high profile arrests of ringleader Sabu and five other leaders in Europe and the United States.

Apparently Sabu, IRL Hector Xavier Monsegur, was arrested last June by the FBI. Following his arrest Sabu gave up Ryan Ackroyd and Jake Davis of London, Darren Martyn and Donncha O'Cearrbhail of Ireland, and Jeremy Hammond of the US.

According to the FBI and FoxNews who broke the story, Sabu now works for the FBI. Who's going to tell them that LulzSec basically just went on a spree of DDoS attacks? How long will it take for the FBI to figure how to do that themselves?

    Well if you want to get hired by the FBI its good to make a name for yourself. I find it hilarious that he got a sweet job at the FBI now and all his followers who he ratted out are locked up facing criminal charges. Thats what these idiots get for following their fearless leader.

    To say that he now "has a job working for the FBI" is as far as I am aware, incorrect. What happened, was he was arrested on charges which could have landed him up to 125 years in jail (yikes!). This can be mitigated IF you cooperate with the authorities. In other words, he was arrested, and upon being arrested struck a deal with the FBI to help implicate others in order to have his own sentence lessened. He's not working with the FBI, he's working FOR the FBI as an informer. (This is to the best of my knowledge, feel free to provide citations which discount this)

    Why not announce his arrest in June? That's a simple question. If it was publicly known he was arrested, none of his cohorts would trust him anymore, and he would be useless as an informer. So they held off on it until he could help them implicate others, which he was able to do.

    It gets scarier. Suppose Sabu was on FBI's payroll the entire time. He recruits other hackers to attack various sites, under the guise of LulzSec. He brings other talent into the fold, people the FBI/NSA know about but have thus far been powerless to stop. Sets the targets, operations go down and, and succeed. Then the FBI moves in. Entrapment, much? And then it makes it easier for things like SOPA/PIPA to get railroaded through.
