Yahtzee has a new Trilby game out, this time a stealth game, in distinct deviation from previous titles. If you’ve been under a rock, the Chzo Mythos series of games are some of the best games available using the Adventure Game Studio toolkit and predominately feature a gentlemanly catburgler named Trilby. Go check it out.
When I played Psychonauts, I knew that the writers for that game were some of my favorite people. After playing Portal, I decided that perhaps Valve had some writers who were actually my favorite people, and I just wasn’t aware of that fact at the time I played Psychonauts. Now I’ve discovered that in fact a union of the two above groups exists and I can stop getting all emotional about it and crying in the bathroom at work every half hour. Seriously.
Rock, Paper, Shotgun has an interview with Erik Wolpaw, who is clearly sane in the same way that John Cleese is. When I eventually decide that I have manacled to the evicerating chain of corporate too long and start my own company, you have a standing job offer from me.
P.S. Ben Croshaw, you’re welcome to join too. I hope you two will play nice together in my future nation-state of gaming.
P.P.S. If you were under the impression that perhaps you, dear reader, were my favorite person, or that I “Like you the best”, you’re wrong.
Yeah, yeah, I’m aware this isn’t really news of note, but having newly discovered this font of hilarity, I thought I’d mention it. Choice Yahtzee quote: “I don’t really think that America is populated entirely by assholes and cowboys; I know that some Canadians live there too”.
