You may remember Joel Johnson tweeting the above at the start of June. I certainly do. At the time I seem to recall making a sound not unlike the release of air from a small inflatable chair - kind of an “Ehhh” sort of noise.

Three months is a long time. We’re a month and a half away from the end of that self-imposed embargo - how are Kotaku doing?

Now Not very well, it seems:

• Batman: Arkham City Collector’s Edition is Gotham City’s Greatest Treasure [July 19th, 2011]
• Drool over Bastion, a 21st-Century Throwback to the Glory of the Super Nintendo [July 19th, 2011]
• Mortal Kombat Brings Two Premieres To Comic-Con [July 18th, 2011]
• The Calamitous Bastion Launch Trailer [July 15h, 2011]
• Arkham City’s Two-Face Isn’t Half-Bad Once You Get to Know Him [July 15h, 2011]
• Where Does Batman Get All This Wonderful Concept Art? [July 14h, 2011]
• The Riddler Takes a Sinister Turn in Batman: Arkham City [July 12th, 2011]
• Mortal Kombat’s Newest, Wettest Ninja Punches In on July 19 [July 11th, 2011]

Wow. July 5th? Did they really last just over one month? No, of course not. They lasted one day:

• Check Out These Batman: Arkham City Batarang Controllers [June 2nd, 2011]

I have to applaud Kotaky for sticking to their guns for a full twenty-four hours. That can’t have been easy for them. Kudos to you for having the balls to show Warner Bros. that you can’t shove around an outlet like theirs. You bite them, they’ll go ahead and bite right the fuck back. But not too hard, of course - they’d still like to get review copies, if that’s quite alright with you, Mr. Warner, sir.
