So, a funny thing happened on the way to the safe-room in Left 4 Dead.  We kinda discovered a new way to play it.
It happened purely by uncommunicative circumstance when we were playing the Left 4 Dead demo a couple of weeks ago at work, and ever since then it’s pretty much changed how we [...]

Holy crap.
Has it been a year?  Already?  To be perfectly honest, when I started this, I had only a small expectation that it would make it a full year.  Typically I give up on personal pet projects much sooner than that, often tossing them aside for some other lofty and typically unreachable goal given my total lack [...]

Okay, I had no idea these things have been on the market since at least August of this year, but holy jeebs if I had known about them I would have gone as Sam Fisher for halloween.  An adult even modelled them on the news toy segment I was watching and they are as close as [...]
