Time for a short breath...

Well, if you can wade thru the clog in the internet from everyone clammoring to read more from yesterday's news, then we might suggest trying something to slow the heart rate down just a bit!

TenTon Hammer's Merriandar Eldaronde has posted Part II of If You Don't Have Something Nice to Play…Virtual Memories. Definately worth a read!

Genda has offered her thoughts on Ralph Koster's views in From Koster's Department of Irony. Seems he wrote a nice little piece in GameSpot that got some attention recently, as well! Something you have to read to appreciate!

One more thing, and that's if you live in a very secluded world: We all want to congratulate former GM Fessius on joining the Design group at Sigil! Naturally, since he's been a GM longer than most, that means he knows what players want, right?? Expecting great(er) things now, Fess!!

And again, warm thoughts to our own Amoonsinas as she tries to return to her health!! This is why you are seeing some of us filling in on the news here! Hospitals are NO fun! But, chasing doctors.....

Until next time, keep your heads up and look to the Spheres to continue on your path!

Re: Time for a short breath...

Yep Raph Koster was featured on GU Comics today because of that comment.

http://gucomics.com/archives/view.php?cdate=20060215

Of course he explains it on his website and apparantly he has a very different defination of what a single player game actually is. By his definition single player games are indeed doomed if they even existed in the first place.

http://www.raphkoster.com/2006/02/10...-games-doomed/

I can't say I exactly aggre with him but he does make many good points in his essay and in his replies to the comments that followed.
