Making Games Cinematic (In Ways That Actually Matter)
July 30th, 2010
I’m kind of torn with this article. I agree with some of the points made, but I don’t agree with others. There’s also a heavy amount of snark dished out for things that I don’t think deserve bashing.

July 30th, 2010
A portion of a Kotaku review…
