Ugh, vaporware thy name is Duke Nukem Forever. Turns out in court paperwork that 3D Realms is and has been working on this damn game since…I dunno…FOREVER?!? But the real shocker is that there wasn’t one, but TWO Duke games in development.
It’s bad enough that you can’t produce the ONE title guys, but letting the world know that you were making a Duke Begins which is now dead isn’t going to work too well towards your company’s PR.
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
