If you play video games, and have played either Assassin’s Creed or Grand Theft Auto IV, you’ll know (and possibly even understand) why I’ve had few updates recently.  I also put my own strip on indefinite hiatus which you would think would free up more time for more posts, but whatever.

If you know what the above title means, then you’ve probably already heard this news and are saving up your Xbox Live coin to get it.  If not, the term “gone gold” means it is finished and ready to be shipped to retailers.  Except in this case, the game is downloadable, via the PA crew’s own new Greenhouse service or Xbox Live.  PC owners can take their own created character side-by-side with Gabe and Tycho sometime later this quarter, but 360 players will have to wait a bit longer for their chance to fight alongside two of the most charismatic characters ever created.

For those who salivate over such things, the press release can be found here.
