Hidden Diablo III Zone Discovered
Those of you who played Diablo II undoubtedly remember the insane, loot-laden Secret Cow Level. Blizzard remembers, too, and they kept the hilarious tradition alive in Diablo III. Only this time, the hidden zone is a jab at those who complained about the game’s art style.

Verizon to Eliminate Unlimited Data Plans
Verizon CFO Fran Shammo revealed today at the J.P. Morgan Technology, Media and Telecom conference that the company is eliminating unlimited data plans this summer.
That includes subscribers such as myself who are grandfathered into a $30/month plan.
The announcement is causing an uproar among Verizon customers for obvious reasons. I, for one, will be dumping them as my carrier when the switch occurs. (Our state has a law allowing residents to dump a contract if a service provider decides to change the terms.)

38 Studios Facing Serious Financial Issues
38 Studios, the studio that brought us Kingdoms of Amalur, is in a serious financial mess. The company, which is owned by former Red Sox legend Curt Schilling and employs comic book artist Todd McFarlane as its Art Director, failed to make a $1.1 million loan payment.
The company is talking with officials in Rhode Island, including the Governor, to develop an action plan to get them out of the red. (Rhode Island gave Schilling a $75 million loan back in the summer of 2010 to relocate the company from Massachusetts.)
This doesn’t bode well for 38′s plans for an Amalur MMO.

Former Yahoo CEO May Owe Company $7 Million
Depending on how the company terminates him, former Yahoo CEO Scott Thompson may end up owing the company as much as $7 million due to the structure of the signing bonus he received when Yahoo hired him back in January. The bonus was cash and stock.
Thompson, who got caught lying about his education, agreed to step down over the weekend.
UPDATE: Thompson won’t be required to pay back the bonus – but he gets no severance.

Minecraft 360 Breaks One Million Sales
The Xbox 360 port of Minecraft has been something of a success. Not only did it shatter all previous launch day sales and play records on Xbox Live Arcade; it also surpassed the one million sales mark this morning and people have already spent 2.4 million hours playing.
Considering that it’s only been available for five days, that’s kind of insane.

CBS Cancels CSI: Miami
I have sad news for those of you who are fans of David Caruso and his meme-inducing CSI: Miami protagonist Horatio Caine: the show has been canceled after nearly a decade.
Both the original CSI and CSI: New York survived the cut. Miami was canned due to decline in ratings and increasing production costs in recent seasons.

Yahoo CEO Steps Down Following Education Scandal
All Things Digital reported today – and Yahoo has since confirmed – that the company has lost yet another CEO. Scott Thompson is stepping down after he was caught lying about the degree he received from Stonehill College. Thompson claimed he had a computer science degree – but Stonehill didn’t have a computer science program when he was a student there.
The story of Yahoo’s executive management has really become a comedy of errors.
