An Argument For Video Games That Don't Waste Our Time - 1 views

  •  
    I'm glad someone if finally addressing this. "The Grind" in games (spending hours and hours doing the same actions to get better items) has long been one of my soap box rant topics. It's interesting that it took "freemium" games on Facebook and iOS to pave the way for big game houses like Blizzard (Diablo and WoW) to adopt a better standard. Still not sure I agree with the in-game auction house, but it's a start.

    Hahah. This game evolves from 8-big graphics all the way to textured 3D as you level up. It's an RPG about the history of video games.

    This is very funny. I wish they had the old Ultima IV screen, though. That's the first one I remember playing.

Save 25% on Fantasy Grounds on Steam - 0 views

    Someone has FINALLY made digital, multiplayer game manager for traditional pen-&-paper games. It's looks really well done. One feature in the video for it (in the link) is that the GM can type in a custom item like a weapon, including the name, damage, and bonuses, then click on the text, and have a digital d20 appear with the bonuses automatically added into the roll. Genius!  There's a free demo of it on Steam right now.

    Cool. I just added it to my wishlist.

    Great site with older games at discount prices. Similar to Steam and Humble Bundle. Great deals on a lot of old faves and games that you probably never got around to playing.

    This week's Humble Bundle give you $370 worth of game design content for $12 with RPG Maker VX Ace, lots of DLC tiles sets, art and music, and a few games made with RPG Maker as well. It's a steal!

    Play all the old Sega console games in a browser (if you're into that sort of thing). Thanks to Drew Glover for this walk down memory lane.

Greatest Game Series of the Decade on GameSpot - 0 views

  •  
    Gamespot's "Game Series of the Decade." It's down to The Elder Scrolls and GTA. Interesting to see the early losers and how the matchups worked. Poor Red Dead Redemption never stood a chance against Zelda in the first round.

    Mojang (the makers of Minecraft) has a card game called "Scrolls." Looks like a combination of Magic the Gathering and Might & Magic. I know plenty of people who like both/either of those games enough to LOVE this Scrolls.
