Telltale Games, creators of the Sam & Max episodic adventure games, have announced a Wallace & Gromit game.  Awesome.
You can see the trailer and some screenshots on their site.
I think it’s a great idea — the look and feel of Aardman’s animation fit perfectly into an adventure game, and the screenshots appear to have captured […]

Will Porter of PC Zone had some hands-on time with Fallout 3 — five hours worth. His thoughts? He was kind enough to transcribe them here.
Most of the gaming world seems worried that it’s going to be too much like Oblivion (see the comments in this RPS thread), but I’m on the other […]

I’ll have another entry later this week, and at least one next week as well.
I also spent some time playing Call of […]

Left 4 Dead:  Continues to […]

I finally got off my butt and updated my Living In Oblivion blog, with Day 25.
And with this update, I’ve actually caught up the blog with the gameplay, which is exciting for me because I’ll get to play Oblivion again and find out what happens to Nondrick next.  Frankly, I’m ready:  I think I’m gonna […]

A great example of what I mentioned in the last post, with two pyros batting a rocket back and forth, on YouTube.

*but I never answered your e-mail.
Fledgling gamer blog The Irish Gamers interviewed me this week, and they’ve posted all the lurid details.  There’s even some vague talk about whatever comic it is I’m supposed to be working on these days.  Something about a fort?  Check it out here if you can’t get enough of me, […]
