This one is about Zombies and Games
Emphasis on the ‘and’
I really dislike cutscenes. Sure they look great, and many of them are very amusing. However, in a medium which presents a unique capability for interactive storytelling, they feel to me like a punt on advancing the plot. They are also often riddled with things that appear like gameplay features, but aren’t in the game, which is just an obnoxious tease.

My Best Story for Today
There’s a copy of Psychonauts sitting on the coffee table in the living room, and I keep meaning to check and see if it’s my copy of Psychonauts, but I keep forgetting.

Instead of asking for ‘Diet Coke’ in restaraunts, I’m going to ask for ‘Diet Cola.’ This is going to be awesome.

My Brain is Wired to Like Things I Agree With
I really enjoyed this article on Kotaku because it articulates and discusses what I wrote about mature content way better than I did.

Up yours!
Public Restrooms
I don’t really like them.
Not because they’re unsanitary, or because they have other people in them. No I don’t like them because they force you to observe who doesn’t wash they hands after fooling around with their junk, and who walks in with an open can drink that they set on the urinal while they work their magic.
Thumbs up!

I have an awesome title, but this isn't it.
I think my favorite feature of Netflix is the ability to add movies to your queue that haven’t come out yet. Especially cool looking movies like Moon which I’ll never get the chance to see in theaters.
And now you know.

I found this fascinating and terrifying at the same time. Also I’m posting it here so that Aaron will see it since his IM status shows that messages are being redirected to his mobile. Since he rarely responds when I send him things that way, I theorize that it doesn’t work because I’m so awesome he couldn’t possibly have anything better to do, like keep his eyes on the...

Mad Max Beyond the Vault
Has anyone managed to create a male character in Fallout 3 that doesn’t look like Mel Gibson? I kept trying, but the best I could do was make his head skinny which turned him into David Bowie….

I am compelled to desire one. It burns within me inflaming my… blue car desirenesosity.
Have you looked at the mpg on a Prius? 45/48? Freakin’ awesome.
Games and DRM
The amount of DRM that is creeping into games these days is starting to really annoy me. I didn’t mind having to put the disc in my drive. It takes very little effort on my part, and keeps me from casually lending it to someone to install during the initial buying and playing frenzy. Sometimes there’s even a patch down the line that removes that restriction when the game ages. (Thank...
Mature Content
To follow the formula that raised my grades in history class, I’m going to start out by telling you my point: What are the merits of ‘mature content’ in video games?
Now I’ll jabber on about it for a bit.
For the past couple day’s I found myself thinking about mature content, and what it means when we talk about games being mature. I think it was planted in...
Start the Shennanegans
I have hitherto refrained from making posts wherein I discuss pithy issues related to games, gaming, game design and the gaming industry for the following reasons
I lack the patients[sic] and forethought to structure, spell check, or check the definition of words like ‘hitherto’; all of which are required for such a thing to be cogent, compelling, or a reasonable read.

Whut am ah dooin?
BrickGame.exe has reached a point where it’s stable, so it’s starting to go out hand-in hand with my resume. They make such a cute pair.
While I wait, I think I’ll destabilize BrickGame and see what else I can do with it. The past month or so I have really been having a blast. This whole game development thing really is just souper!
Also, Tumblr has totally made it to my...

Actually, I want this in my pants. I plan on stuffing the reader into the cushion of my chair, and sticking the tags in my back pockets. Switching applications? I’ll just change my pants thank you.
No, I’m sorry I can’t review that proposal today, those pants are in the wash.

Steal it. Listen to it. Leave it just inside your unlocked front door for others.
Check out his other album I Don’t Know What I’m Doing while you’re at it why don’t you? No really, why don’t you? You’re too good for clicking on things? Is free digital music too much of an emotional experience for you?

I’m sorry I brought it up then.

That’s why BunkerBall is stalled.
On the bright side, I’m done with my Direct3D Kickstart book, and so I’m starting my craptastical paddle game today. Woo!
Right after I eat my macaroni and cheese. I never got in the habit of calling it just “mac ‘n cheese” it’s always been the full “macaroni and cheese” to me. I wonder why…
