Good evening, Kotaku readership. Been on any interesting trips lately? Have something you need to get off your chest? Looking for stimulating non-video game related chatter? This post is for you.
Who out there in Kotaku-land is going to Tokyo Game Show this year? I am! So is Mr. Ashcraft, naturally. But since Iāve got a bit of a vacation hangover, Iām keeping my stay overseas brief. I think this is my sixth trip to Tokyo, so Iām thinking ābeen there, done thatā a little too much. Anyone out there have some insider tips about how to make travel in Tokyo fun this year?

Hereās some stuff.
Oxford English Dictionary āwill not be printed againā ā Publisher cites the effects of the internet on book sales. Donāt worry, language lovers, it may not be as bad as it seems.
Washington, We Have a Problem ā Vanity Fairās looong look at the Obama administration and the complexity of a modern presidency. Still chugging through it.
Darren Aronofsky in the running to direct Wolverine 2? ā Sound suspect! Can anyone make the X-Men movies good again?
Biden to cool his heels in Mexico for a while ā The Onionās Biden is amazing.
How panhandlers use(d) prepaid credit cards ā Journalist hands out plastic to Toronto homeless as part of an experiment. Fascinating.
