Did he say Earthdawn in Space? »

DORP-TV interview Red Brick at Spiel ‘08.

They discuss Age of Legends, Earthdawn, Equinox, and the future of the Earthdawn Novels.
If I am not mistaken, he explained Equinox as Earthdawn in Space.  I am going to buy a copy when it comes out.  The idea of horrors in space sounds interesting.  I also like that they [...]

Play This Game, Buy This Book »

I know it is becoming popular to give extras to people to entice them into reading your book, but I have to think that this is a bit over the top:

Recently, my friend Dream teleported me to a place I thought could never be recreated. The Magic of Oz SIM is a [...]

The Rise of Wild Phoenix »

Last night, I hit level 50 on City of Heroes with Wild Phoenix as did Brian’s Black Cniht.
Two things hit me really hard when I hit the top level:

I did not get the same sense of accomplishment I have from other games.
My love for the Character made me start wondering about the current state of [...]

Beholder at PAX »

D&D was such an important part of my childhood, and the Beholder and the Mind Flayer are emblematic beasts.  I wish I could have seen this in person.

Costume: Final Fantasy’s Auron »

Auron is one of the most interesting character in Final Fantasy X.  His sinister attitude and life of secrets added so much to the game.
This wonderful costume from Otakon replicates the look fairly well.
