What’s this, a platformer…done in 3D…that actually has some style, and looks pretty cool at the same time? Whaaaaa?
Yet another XNA DBP Challenge participant shows up with a game that blows my mind considering it’s created independently created. A lot of these games being showcased on the DBP Challenge must be complete labors of love, I can’t think of any other reason someone would spend as much time making games without turning a profit on them.
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.
