We are currently looking for anyone who believes they may relate or be of some use to our studio. To get…
SCAD class of 2004 here. Going to school in Savannah was a great experience for me. I graduated with a major in Graphic Design since the video game stuff came right as I was on my way out. Luckily I was able to take a couple of the 3dsMax courses before I graduated. One thing to note about SCAD is you only get out of it…

I don't know about that - any female gamers around here with a view on the way men are portrayed in games? True for some types of games more than others. Certainly of the AAA action titles with muscle-bound manly men - COD, Gears of war etc. but then I don't think people play those games looking for depth of story and…

The average gamer these days is becoming more and more hip to the idea of free entertainment. When entertainment's free, why work? Plenty of people out there sittin' on their butts playing free,…
It's Friday! If you're having a lack-luster day or just really looking forward to Beer O'Clock. Then let's kick the day off with some inspirational art and some praise for your TF2 entries.
