Also, I’m curious what agency you worked with that had the Art Director chat with clients directly?

Share your LinkedIn profile and I’ll Connect with you on there, I’d love to chat more from professionals in my industry. Also, when I do, I’d expect you to come clean. Deal?

Well considering I’m a Marketing Director for an advertising agency, if I were hired by a company, say Sony. It’s 100% expected that they should review all of my work... I have clients 1,000th the size smaller than Sony that review nearly every inch of our work. An ad campaign goes through hundreds of reviews, and…

I originally started reading this thinking, nah the artists are being dramatic, their style was likely homage to the creators... then I watched the comparison video, yup that was absolutely lifted lol. Wow, ballsy Sony... ballsy.

I always thought having a drivers training car as well, that way you can switch people without leaving the seat. Grab a hatchback, add fuel tanks, grab some snacks, boom.

They are releasing the games in chronological order, based on when they happen in the Halo Universe timeline.

I wasn’t sure how I would like to download each game separately as the Halo games released, as I was most looking forward to Halo 3, but of course that’s one of the last ones to be released; however, when I jumped into Reach and noticed it native-supported 5760 x 1080, I was quite happy.

I remember when I asked my parents for a PS1 for Christmas, and it was the first console that I wanted after my brother had left for the Navy (always had to share the Sega with him before that). They had wrapped everything up and our family tradition was to allow me to open one gift the day before Christmas. I had…

Konami code, nice touch Amazon.

For me, I loved BFME1, it is certainly different than #2, which I found refreshing, it’s less base buildy, and more resource/battle management, which I think worked. There are bases, but they are prebuilt. Plus it’s one of the few RTS’s where soldiers actually go onto the walls and attack downward. I also loved AOE3,…

PokeWow.

Though replacing windows can be a pain and expensive, as a former firefighter this is a terrible idea. The windows are a necessary point of entry into a vehicle in an accident, in a flooding, etc. for first responders. I have zero doubt this design will change dramatically as it gets closer to release, but lord I hope…

I used to be into 8Tracks, but I haven’t been on there in a bit. It had the best mashups though.

I mean I would rent out the room for a year for $365 and start my own game show in the room, make them lots of money, increase my reputation (which is none), and then become a movie star. All for $365 and voyeurism. I’m thinking Lings Auto Sales artistically (if you bravely venture the link, be sure to click on Live…

Possibly Battle for Middle Earth I & II, and AOE3, because a lot of my family still slugs about in those games.

So I’ve revisited older RTSs that I’ve only found again. Paraworld, Age of Mythology, and likely Dawn of War will be entered into the rotation.

Age of Empires II Definitive Edition, Starcraft 2, and likely a few other PC RTS games with some buddies. I might try to pick up Pokemon Shield again; however, I’ve been preoccupied with PC.

Sword... just because my name is Zach, and it’s called Zacian. It’s a no brainer. Plus it’s a dog with a sword in its mouth. Also, Sirfetch’d. It’s a classier game.

Great story and love things like this. Now I just want a copy of Starcraft Ghost and Firefly Online, both of which I’m sure are lingering about, out there. Heck I still have my Gamestop pre-paid receipt for Starcraft Ghost lol.

Man the Dreamcast is an amazing console. Wouldn’t it be amazing to see if Sega was in the console wars currently? PS5, Xbox Scorpio, Switch, and Sega Something. That’s a cool thought.
