The biggest problem with doing this is that it assumes we've all played enough games to make a qualified judgement. But that's rarely the case. Come year end, maybe 2 or 3 staffers will have played Myst V, 3 others will have played Indigo Prophecy, and 4 completely different people will have played Still Life, etc. The number of us that will have actually played enough games to make legitimate comparisons is pretty few.

Of course, we're completely open to someone buying games for all staff to play.

Or you could get one guy to do it all. Like you.

There's a dire situation in the state of gaming today. Namely, the lack of games for AG staff. They sit in their offices day after day replaying the same game over and over again as they enviously watch other staff members with a new game. Please help alleviate this situation today.

That's what the Hype-o-Meter is for!

Wait, what? Who said that?! Nasty reverb in this forum. That wasn't me.

But yes, that's also a possibility, although one that makes me want to go back to bed and stay there.

indeed. Who's joking? And as editor, I'm at a distinct disadvantage now by not having a Nintendo DS. AG can only suffer because of it. All benefactors welcome.

Aw, come on! This would earn you such a great amount of whiny complaintspraise. It's worth it!

Mh. I keep hearing about this DS thing. I guess I'll have to go on a anti-console crusade soon... That, or I could buy it.

Naaah. Too easy.

I was being silly (hence the joking caveat) but now I've made both Marek and Jackal sad so I feel bad now.

Here's some chocolate therapy (it works for me):

[Jackal]

Tastes a bit like tinfoil.

Never fear, we knew you were being silly. We're just trying to manipulate the situation to our advantage. We're like that. Crap, there's that acoustical glitch again. What IS it with this forum?

Me too! As... err... whatever it is I am, I need a DS too. (Actually, I'm pretty sure that Santa* will bring me one. )

For those looking forward to some kind of awards feature, I can guarantee that whatever we come up with, you'll love it.


*And by this I mean I'll buy it myself with my own money, because "Santa" never listens when I say what I want. But maybe I'll walk into the store wearing a jolly red hat. And then wrap it up with a tag with my name on it and put it under the tree. And then act all suprised and excited when I open it.

Bribe Stinger to do it.
He's the guy who convinced me in his yearly article that I should play DOTT.
