With the recent confirmation that the Call of Duty franchise is going to return to its original setting of World War II this fall, there is no better time to look back at the history of video games that have tackled the conflict of World War II. It makes sense that dozens upon dozens of video games have been set during WWII, as not only does Hitler make for the perfect Big Bad, it is an excuse to arm players to the teeth and have them engage in an epic, globe-spanning battle....

In a post titled “Apple’s clean energy plans still cloudy despite coal-free pledge,” Greenpeace praised Apple on its blog for significantly improving clean energy policies, but the environmental organization still gave the company low scores for its energy choices. A new Greenpeace International analysis released today, and it claims—despite Apple’s commitment to make its data centres coal-free and 100-percent renewable energy operated—the folks in Cupertino still lack “a plan that outlines a realistic path to eliminate its reliance on coal to power its iCloud....

If one were to assemble a Mount Rushmore of horror villains, a good case could be made that Michael Myers should be on it. “The Shape” as he’s sometimes called, has stalked and slashed his way through eleven films at this point, with a twelfth and thirteenth on the way in the next two years....

But errors can still run rampant despite such tools.
