This job is unsavory, but it must be performed by someone
One of my favorite recent games is Minecraft, designed by Markus Persson, which is basically a giant world of lego blocks that you hack apart and rebuild, all while avoiding cubist zombies and spiders: One of my favorite older games … Continue reading

Roger Ebert is unlikely to consider it art…
When you try to tell someone about a video game, the best way to do it is to describe the experience of playing it. And what really gets me salivating are the games that are completely different that anything I’ve … Continue reading
Paper-cut silhouettes
Olly Moss has created an amazing set of silhouettes of pop culture figures. They span decades and genres, I would love to see this turned into a test. I suspect you could guess a person’s age to within 5 years … Continue reading

And then Mario kills himself in a mushroom-vision
I respect TNC greatly, but I disagree that this is even something to talk about. He comments on an NYT story regarding Madden 12, in which players with concussions will be removed from the game and the commentators will explain … Continue reading
