November 6th, 2008 · No Comments

Tim Schafer, the notoriously crazy-talented mind behind some of the greatest adventure game moments of my youth (ok, ok…adulthood) has released some of the game documenation behind Grim Fandango, the Aztecian Film Noir classic. Really kewl stuff, the kind of thing DVD extras are made of. Just the simple number of wacky adjectives you can [...]

Video Game Players Are Brilliant Scientists

September 14th, 2008 · No Comments

When I first started playing video games, back when joysticks were made of the femurs of certain small dinosaurs, you just sort of played the game.

Wrath of the Lich King Maps

July 19th, 2008 · No Comments
