Just a little idea. We've had interviews with game creators in the past. Maybe we could integrate them into some game reviews as well. Just a stupid thought that I was mulling around in my noodle last night. I know totally stupid, right? It doesn't hurt to try to strike up some inspiration though.

Anyway; keep enjoying your time off from me Wink

This would best be done through some sort of internet messaging system, or a simple questionare which, the person can answer. Not a bad idea.. although I think I may have seen something like this before somewhere in the community.

I don't really get what you mean. "Integrate them into some game reviews?" Reviews and interviews serve two drastically different purposes and wouldn't mesh well together. A review should give us unbiased information on the game's qualities and faults. An interview should teach us about the author, his point of view, and behind the scenes information. Writing a review and then talking to the author about it through an interview works, but I really don't see what you mean otherwise. Example?


I didn't look at it it that way, now that you mention it. You are absolutely correct, PHC. Having an interview right inside a game review would make it a bit biased, narrow, and from more the artist's opinion than the people. Well, I was just wondering. Thank you.
