How Jack Black’s ‘I Am Steve’ Minecraft line became a meme

The "I Am Steve" meme originated from Jack Black's line in the teaser trailer for the upcoming A Minecraft Movie, set to release on April 4, 2025.

The meme first appeared in September 2024 and gained popularity quickly after the trailer's release.

The making of Fallout Tactics: ‘I sound like I’m down on it now, but I still love what we made’

In 2001, the hairy deathclaw from Fallout Tactics became a focal point for criticism of the game's developer, Micro Forté, due to its unconventional design choice of a thick fur coat. Lead designer Ed Orman acknowledged the controversy, stating that while variations on deathclaws could be justified, the design was initially seen as sacrilege. Fallout Tactics is considered a bold offshoot of the RPG franchise, created by a passionate team despite limited resources.
