I LIKE GAMES


WWW
« on: March 01, 2005, 07:15:52 AM »

Totally being serious here, this isn't just a "fun thread'.  

Recently, I've seen a lot of interesting gaming discussion go down on various weblogs like 20x20 Room and the like.  I often stumble on to these by accident (usually getting referred to one in some thread here or at RPGNet), and I forget them just as easily (or I follow three links to a really interesting blog, but when I try to navigate again to that blog I forget how I got there, etc).  So I'm looking to bookmark some Game-Themed blogs to cycle through.  

Could you give me your recommendations, and to keep things topical, maybe a simple sentence or phrase as to why you visit that Blog?

Here's some to get us started:

http://gamethink.blogspot.com/  Once a great site with rather interesting contributors, it hasn't been updated in about 2 months, which usually indicates BlogDeath.

http://www.20by20room.com/ This is the one that pretty much everyone references at some point.  It's like the above but continuously updated.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/memento_mori/ Jared's blog. It's fun, light reading and you can see what's going on in Jared's mind every now and then. Wear gloves.

http://www.livejournal.com/users/matt_snyder/  Same as above, but erase Jared and toss in Matt Snyder.

http://www.septemberquestion.org/lumpley/opine.html  Vince's site, lots of righteous gaming discussion, with other interesting blog links on the right.

So, where else should I be looking?

Andy, I also keep the "official" Chimera Creative blog, "Heads or Tales," here: http://www.chimera.info/blog/

The distinction is that I talk about gaming, life and whatever on my livejournal, but I talk strictly gaming and game design on the chimera blog.

Hi,

I've been writing more game-related stuff lately:

The most recent post is about GNS and Sim dominance in the hobby.

I often write about game shit in my ranting and raving at my live journal.  I also post crap I am working on too.

Everything about the game, from the mechanics, to the artwork, to the layout just screams creepy, creepy, creepy at me. I love it.
