Here's what's wrong with the MSM: There's brutal repression in Burma, children without health insurance, and a war against Islamofascism � and the New York Times op-ed page devotes 900 words to Halo 3.
Sure, I wrote the damn thing, but where were the grown-ups who should have stopped me?
Money quote: "Like cinema, games will need to embrace the dynamics of failure, tragedy, comedy and romance. They will need to stop pandering to the player�s desire for mastery in favor of enhancing the player�s emotional and intellectual life."
While I was working on this, I told you all that I was bracing myself for a serious fragging at the hands of hardcore gamers. My only hope is that I get at least one comment as awesome as this one, which was posted in response to an article yesterday in InformationWeek: "Second of all no one cares about the darn campagin unless 1) You are a n00b to halo and have no respect of your self 2) You cant play online cause you have no idea what BXR is or what the "n00b Combo" is. Face it, who cares what the guy wrote about the campain, he forgot about the biggest part. ONLINE GAMEPLAY!."
BXR is one of those new club drugs, right?
