Dogs in the Vineyard

“It’s just HeroQuest minus the cardboard walls.” Rob's back from vacation, so I pinged him on IM to catch up. I wanted to share my excitement about Dungeons & Dragons Fourth Edition which had arrived in his absence. Hes read it. He's less than impressed. "What do you mean? It looks awesome,” I protest.

Ten Gnomes

Polish graphic artist and flash auteur Mateusz Skutnik populates artfully photographed landscapes with little bearded hideaways in Ten Gnomes. Each game begins with a panoramic black-and-white photo, but no visible gnomes.

June 30 - July 4

I'd have to be pretty stubborn not to give Game of the Week to Guitar Hero: Aerosmith. On 3 systems it is the only game being released this week, and on the 4th its only competition is a game called Purr Pals.

Danjo Olivaw

If you run a website long enough, eventually you'll reach a point where you can't imagine it without certain people. Danjo neatly fits into that catagory, being someone who always seems to be around when I'm playing games online. If games were like Cheers, everyone would yell his name when he logs onto the server.

“Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached the goal; While others, on the contrary, obtain a victory by exerting, at the last moment, more vigorous efforts than ever before.” -- Herodotus

Floribular

Floribular makes me wonder if people will ever stop coming up with new grid-based, match-3 casual games. Is there any limit to the number of potential variations on the theme that spawned Bejeweled?

June 23 - 27

It has to be said that there are a ton of games coming to market this week.

Prognosticating the MMO the Mouse Built

I love Disney. Not the company, which is increasingly reaching to foul and loathesome depths in its push to get marketoys into the hands of little girls. Not even the man, though obviously he was a person to respect.
