I don't usually like to talk about my day job here, but if I had a nickel for every time I've walked in on someone changing his clothes in the men's room, I'd have fifteen cents I could not spend quickly enough.

News Blips:

Journey is the fastest-selling release in PlayStation Network history. If you're like me, thatgamecompany's newest title offered a welcome escape from listening to people complain about Mass Effect 3's ending (although I wouldn't turn down a cupcake if someone offered me one). In a post on the US Playstation Blog today, Creative Director Jenova Chen announced that the meditation-y desert-wandering sim is now the "fastest-selling game ever released in the SCEA region on the PlayStation Network." Adds Chen, "We have received more letters from fans in the two weeks since Journey’s launch than we did for Flower over the past three years!" I like to imagine fans signing their feedback with their PSN handle so the developers could have the same experience reading it as I did playing the game: "Aw, that was nice...oh, that person calls himself 'ManicPigMan.'" The post also reveals that Journey's soundtrack will be available in the PlayStation Store and iTunes on April 10.

Publisher THQ has announced that its upcoming Warhammer 40,000 project is no longer an MMO. The title formerly known as Dark Millennium Online is dropping that "Online" bit in favor of a more focused single-player title. "We believe the right direction for us is to shift the title from an MMO to a premium experience with single and multiplayer gameplay, robust digital content and community features,” said Brian Farrell, THQ's President and CEO. It's probably a good idea, considering World of Warcraft's continued ownership of the online-only space, but the bad news is that this reorganization eliminates a total of 118 jobs at THQ internal studios Vigil Games (Darksiders) and Relic Entertainment (Company of Heroes).

Electronic Arts has reached the semifinals in The Consumerist's annual search for "the worst company in America." Starting Friday at noon EDT, the massive devleoper and publisher will face off against AT&T to see who readers of The Consumerist despise the most. The "winner" will face off against the top vote-getter in today's contest between Bank of America and Wal-Mart. I'm a little outraged, myself; this has been going on for years, and I have yet to see Kitten Punchers & Baby Droppers, Inc. made to face up to its evildoing. Then again, that company's customer service is pretty solid. [The Consumerist]
