I'm the co-founder and an editor of this website! Before that I ran 1UP's video department, worked at EGM, wrote game strategy guides, and was a roadtester for a car magazine. You may also remember me from the Lord of the Rings movies, where I played Frodo.

FEATURED POST
We've got not one but two rather distinctly different video tours of Call of Duty XP that, when taken together, should have something for just about everyone: Interviews and event highlights, Host Chloe Dykstra dancing with a ghillie-suited sniper, potential Jersey Shore alternate castmembers...and that's just the first video.

PAX just keeps on giving -- we've unearthed an interview we shot with Fez creator Phil Fish in which he talks about his influences, his design process, and his ten-year plan. From the sound of it Fez may finally be done, too!

Ken Block fans may not find this one quite so technically amazing, but the tilt/shift style is kind of cool in video form.

We did it! One more E3 without handing out traditional awards like so many county-fair blue ribbons. We do, however, have a whole stack of our Non-Award Awards to bestow on a variety of sort-of-lucky or not-at-all lucky recipients....

A few months ago, a talented group of videographers based in the U.K. got in touch with us about a potential collaboration. This is the result, or at least the first result: a behind-the-scenes look at Brink developer Splash Damage.

This is really the best quotes of GDC 2011 that I heard personally, but that doesn't quite have the same ring of authority, headline-wise. But enough of me talking, on to the quotes!

Pac-Man creator Toru Iwatani showed a handful of never-before-seen design doc images for Pac-Man that are pretty cool, which we've saved for posterity.

"GamePro actually did print a number of Bitmob stories in a few of their issues back then. And I think the authors were compensated as GamePro freelancers, too! At least that's what GamePro said they were going to do...."

"Hey Michael -- I started working at Raptr a few months ago while continuing to contribute (although in a significantly reduced roll) to Bitmob. I'm not going to be a regular staffer over at Gamesbeat, but I may jump in here and there :)"

"More Stranger's Wrath representation on this list! Although I didn't really play it so I won't be the right guy for specifics."

"I think Georgia O'Keeffe would approve of that last one! "

"Yeah...needs more catapults, murder holes, and barbarian hordes."

"I played about an hour of this game a few weeks ago and walked away feeling pretty much the same. It looks nice and the intro was really promising, but the actual game/mission design is straight outta 10 years ago. It's a little mind-boggling...how can a company be on the cutting edge of engine and graphics tech and yet be so completely behind the times in other aspects of game design/development?"

"So well said. Would read again!"

"I do need to play this. A lot of what you've outlined (well, except from the chibi) is what World of Tanks also does right (the only freemium game I've played/enjoyed/paid for). Except WoT becomes an impenetrable grind eventually, if you don't fork over some cash."
