Anyone recognize the "Glaciators"?
Anyone recognize the "Glaciators"?
Before we begin this list I think it's fair to mention that I spent at least 50% of my time this year playing two games not released in 2008: Team Fortress 2 and World of Warcraft. I do not regret time spent in either even though there were a lot of great games released this year. I also will mention that as an engineer first and a game commentator second, I have the awesome ability of not having to worry about finishing every game I play. I also missed out on Dead Space, which everyone tells me I'd love. I also did not take part in any of the official game of the year picks so don't look for any insights here. Take my list with a grain of salt.
Jeff passed over some copies of Wrath that just came in for Andy and I. You won't see us for a little while guys ;-)
I have started to love the japanese philosophy of Kaizen which focus on continuous improvement using small steps. Unlike most big sites, the Giant Bombs dev team likes to push code on an almost daily basis, with a new feature once every two weeks or so.
Today was the first day I comitted and pushed code on 4 different sites. It wasn't a hugely busy day, but I figured some people are interested on what it's like working on sites like GB so I thought I'd make a post about it. Here was my day:
Giant disclaimer: I've only played an hour and a half or so of Fallout 3. This is just a quickie impression.
No, not Baraka, but Barack Obama. We checked it out and it looks legit. I also noticed when I checked out the page that it had been vandalized (uncool dude). This also brings up the question of whether or not people should be attached to games simply because they show up in ads. My vote would be no, but I'll let the community fight this one out. What do you think? Should a dynamic ad in a game count as a reference in a game?
When we built the guides section we had the hope that users could build better guides if they could work together, add images, photos and tables. Looks like user Lies, pyromaniac and systech proved that to be true. Check out their AWESOME Force Unleashed Mega-Guide.
