So Steven Den Beste’s Chizumatic is still down. His site went down when he moved to Seattle a couple of weeks ago (Just in time to lose the superbowl to the Steelers, too bad!) and hasn’t re-appeared since. Geeze Steven, whats the holdup? Need an extention cord? Help unpacking boxes? Maybe go over to your new neighbor and borrow a cup of DSL?
Chizu was one of my never-miss-it stops for the day. I need to seriously start thinking about finding a new anime blog. This is a bit tricky. A lot of anime fans aim for the more boobies-and-robots end of the spectrum, and I tend to enjoy the more thoughtful and slower-paced stuff.
Barring that, I should at least learn to stop clicking on my Chizumatic bookmark every morning. Sheesh.
id Software Coding Style
When the source code for Doom 3 was released, we got a look at some of the style conventions used by the developers. Here I analyze this style and explain what it all means.
Fable II
The plot of this game isn't just dumb, it's actively hostile to the player. This game hates you and thinks you are stupid.
Autoblography
The story of me. If you're looking for a picture of what it was like growing up in the seventies, then this is for you.
Raytracing
Raytracing is coming. Slowly. Eventually. What is it and what will it mean for game development?
Final Fantasy X
A game about the ghost of an underwater football player who travels through time to save the world from a tick that controls kaiju satan. Really.
