Are Critics Gamers?
There's a pretty interesting read over at
Gamasutra - Keith Boesky, a game agent and attorney, former president of Eidos, talks about the disconnect between reviewers and consumers. The interesting thing to me was his point that in most fields of entertainment, stuff with mass appeal is simplistic, while the critics love the quirky, the obscure, the deep... whereas in games it's the opposite. Halo gets a couple of mentions, though it's nowhere near the center of his article. Go read - and then stop by our forum to discuss! (Louis Wu 15:50:49 UTC)
