Many of us looked to Purple Moon as a pioneer, breaking out of the young male computer game market. We had some questions as to their methods, the game I played with, Rockett's Tricky Decision, was a hideous rehash of the worst elementary school girl stereotyping, but it should have at least sold. Well, the Mercury News reports that Purple Moon is no more. The market grew to $85 million, but Mattel owns most of that.

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
