What MMOs Can Learn From Super Meat Boy
This past week has been spent in a single-player haze, entrenched in the annals of Ferelden and Kirkwall, Seacrest County, Croatia, London, and Baja, and perhaps most dedicatedly in Super Meat Land (TM). It’s been a pretty incredible trip — and I’m not exaggerating — made possible in no small part by the 3D Vision, …

SAR Returns: Love in a Time of Text; Why We Shouldn’t Freak About a Rift LFD
So, there was this holiday this week and some of you might have noticed. Just saying. Maybe you did. I didn’t. Not until way after the fact when I got to work writing (and re-writing) this week’s Some Assembly Required. It’s called “Love in a Time of Text” and is a This American Life approach …
Fox News is Trustworthy
I have to applaud Fox News on this one. They really dug in and gave a “fair and balanced” view without leaving anything out. See guys, I told you that you were wrong about that whole selective quoting thing. In an article titled Is Bulletstorm the Worst Video Game in the World? I had a …

Gamepro Slip-Up – 3DS to Cost $300?
Sometimes I love how delightfully oblivious my local grocery store is to magazine dates. They put out this month’s Gamepro a little bit early (I took this about four days ago — forgot to post it) and there’s a yet unannouced detail included in one of the articles. Have a look: There’s two possibilities. The …
Rift Watchers Podcast – Episode #1 – NDA-Free is the Way to Be!
Note: Don’t worry, these cross-posts won’t continue forever. I’ve been sharing things over here that I thought my readers might enjoy — and trying to get a little extra exposure.
