Remember The Trace? I want to make that actually happen.
  • I need to have a proper look at the site to see what it is you're actually doing with what you have.
    I'm not sure what exactly I can bring to the table apart from opinions.
    My writing is sub-standard (although better than Pranky's) responsible and I have a dreadfully nasal voice that I can barely stand the sound of. But I'd like to help any way I can, I'm a pretty good researcher, if that helps in any way.

    Actually Dante, I have a wee backlog of beginning film theory articles I was going to do on the trace so I could send em to you
  • submissions [at] onscreeninstereo.co.uk is the email I've set us for that sort of thing, but equally you can PM me on here.

    As to what I'm doing with it, that's malleable. There is a structure in place, which can be changed. For example, Reg mentioned board games. I have no objections to someone wanting to talk about them, so that can be added. Opinions are probably the big thing really. If you want to review something that's cool, but the focus in the main is probably more opinion pieces. I like the idea of a Time Extend type thing though. Been listening a lot to London Calling recently, and thinking that would make a good piece.

    As for Reg's film theory stuff, go for it. From reading some of your stuff in the film thread I think it would be interesting.
  • Reg's film blog was very nicely written (about Japanese films), when I read it a while back.

    Hmm.
    I might see about writing a time extend about Ico or summit.

    It's nice to see something start. Well in Dante.

  • i wrote something for the trace that might be usable, if i can remember where it went! i'll have a look, but youre welcome to reject it on crapness grounds if that's how it turns out. i think its some historical look at the game marble madness, cause my remake was actually meant to be part of a series of articles going over the dev of the game. well, trace died and i made the game anyways so there.

    maybe i could do a similar thang for your thingy

  • I'm back to the US next week, at which point I'll tentatively try to resurrect podgramme interest.

    Yeah, there's my blog. Put a post up at the start of the month, have one about the Western appeal of Ghibli coming.
  • Finally got around to finishing a piece.

    I probably shouldn't have chosen to write something else that involves playing basically every Kinect game, but whatever. I'll be attacking Bioshock at some point too, which I'm not overly looking forward too.

    Bioshock is awesome.
  • I have something on multiplayer communication, but its not finished.
    Sometimes here. Sometimes Lurk. Occasionally writes a bad opinion then deletes it before posting..
  • I liked the article Dante. Don't take this the wrong way though, as it isn't aimed at you but mainly the whole world of independent games journalism, retrospectives can usually get to fuck. Edge do some corkers because they tend to dig up a lot of great facts about games and present them concisely, whereas most other people just tend to pick a game that they like and talk about it, usually with lack of context or anything else.

    Basically i'm angry that i'm never convinced of my own opinion or motivated enough to ever write anything.

    But the website is nice and I didn't know much about Sonic on the Master System so I read it anyway and it was written well.

Howdy, Stranger!
