To Celebrate A Good Day To Die Hard, Fox Releases Subpar Game In A Played Out Genre, Fails To Notice Allegory

Posted by in Games, News

We'll do our best to stay away from spoilers for the newly-released Die Hard movie (Happy Valentine's Day!), but the companion endless-runner game Fox just released to the Play Store isn't doing us any favors on that front. The app—which is somewhat shadily referred to as simply "Die Hard", trading on the name of greater movies—takes inspiration from titles like Temple Run. Just, not enough inspiration. (Note: some screenshots are very slightly spoiler-y, so if you're still planning on seeing the movie and you're a purist, you might want to wait to hit up the source link.)

One of the first things you'll notice about this game versus other endless runner titles is that it's in landscape mode.

[Video] Fox News Discovers That AT&T Unlimited Data Isn't Really Unlimited, Compares It To Being Addicted To Crack

Posted by in AT&T, News, Videos

What happens when AT&T sends Fox News' Shep Smith a text message letting him know that he's in the top 5% of data users and will be throttled? A hilarious rant about AT&T ensues, complete with comparison to crack cocaine. Check it out:

They hook you first - it's like giving you crack. It's all-you-can-eat crack, until, until, until you like a lot of crack and then you gotta pay them.

He's clearly so bothered by AT&T's decision to throttle that he won't even let Lance Ulanoff from Mashable get a word in.

As if Ma Bell needed any more bad press.
