Editorial: Personality
I recently found myself sifting through my collection of RPGs, and it occurred to me that nowadays, most game heroes have personalities.

There was a time, though, when it was not uncommon for the main character of an RPG to have virtually no dialogue and no more »
Editorial: Flood of Games
This topic has been addressed many, many times, but it is just starting to hit me hard. There are way too many games coming out in the next couple months. Too many for me to get all the ones I want, which are quite a bit. The coming flood of games got me thinking: is more »
