Re: A Practical Guide On Normal Mapping For Games

Re: Nexus One. Thoughts?
I'd have bought a Nexus One from Tmobile ($180 w/2yr contract), but I bought a G1 this past spring, so I already signed for another 2yrs. Tmobile here in Seattle is really fantastic, no signal issues. I've been with them since I lived in Reno, going on about 6yrs now. No issues with them. I love the OS a lot, but the G1 is… -

Re: A game that impacts peoples lives
@Ysalex: I personally don't feel the action-reaction scheme is the same as it is in media. A book might move between quiet and action moments, but it's all text.

Re: 3D platormers _what do you know about it
I've noticed that the indie game scene really lacks 3D platformers. There are tons of nostalgic 2D platformers but with the N64 generation coming of age you'd think that the 3D platformer genre would be headed for a massive revival.… -

Re: Smart phone recommendations
I'm currently using a Lumia 520, w/Windows 8.1 which I can't say anything against it. It's ancient hardware, though, but if you're willing to try WP, it's pretty hard to go wrong with the Lumia series.
