Another great write-up on a topic near and dear to me, Cecilia! It sounds pretty clear that both these guys had some huge moments of genius that made (A)D&D what it is, so it’s a shame that it (perhaps inevitably) got so contentious.

Dave Arneson got Jack Kirby-ed.

Pretty sure the disc exists (again, no evidence), but I think it was Europe-only.

Well, to be fair, it’s generally commented on as a Bad Thing when angry internet people demand that an artist change their Original Artistic Vision, right? Like...you know people saying “Game/Movie should be like this instead” and then everyone starts shouting things about Censorship and artistic integrity and all…

Sonic had a mixed CD in the 90s that was sold at Sam goody or The Wall and the first track was gangsters paradise..but you know The easter eggs are for old school fans..

Every 90's kid with a good childhood reading this article like:

An appropriate name for Corey Feldman’s security personnel is The Lost Boys.

“We’ve contacted Konami asking how the rights for retired players”

Yeah. I knew this. But I don’t really consider them protagonists as they were just character models repurposed for the same screen multiplayer stuff. I mean you could technically change your player model with a code in some of the 3D era games and that would let you use a female character model. But I personally don’t…

First of all, quick semantic issue: reporters are not leakers. Reporters report on leaked information.

I started D&D on the first edition when I was twelve. I happen to be female. It was our habit to draw a representation of our characters and use them as screens so that other players couldn’t see your notes / character sheets. Myself and the other female player always drew our characters (not well) in the usual half…

If FFXV has taught me anything, it’s the value of timeliness.

If you want to slam Kotaku for something it should be our slowness in reporting some of this stuff. The reason it seems like ‘its up on Kotaku and then it’s gone right away’ is because we’re often covering it at the tail end of when it makes the rounds. Uranium’s finished game, for example, was pretty much on every…

This is pretty ridiculous. A lot of the times the creators of the fan games send us the games themselves, asking for coverage. Sometimes, the games are broadcast/publicized on platforms that have like ten times our traffic, and we cover them after they’ve made the rounds on the internet and therefore became ‘news’. I…

This comment was a rollercoaster that ended with me high-fiving you.

I was picked on a lot as a kid and it was often directed at my somewhat defiant love of GameCube. It really sucked and probably contributed to triggering the depression I came to struggle with for the years following (and now manage). And I gotta say, all the sorrow that came in response for my love of GameCube was…

There are some generous offers, but you need to meet certain requirements before you can see them.
