Site News: Let's Closing

Hi pals. As you may have noticed, over the last several months, insert credit has become kind of a quiet place. Poor Ollie has been trying to keep it up all by himself, and it's become a bit robocentric in here. The fact is, I can't really commit the time to insert credit that it deserves, because of my full time jobs at Game Developer magazine and Gamasutra, and my freelance game script writing I do on the side.

The front page has crickets chirping, the forums are totally busted, and everything's outdated to the extreme, so I've made the extremely painful and depressing decision to close the site, and make it an archive of the past. That is to say, the site will be closed to new content until such time as I can really dedicate myself to it, but you will be able to still see everything that was here. To do that, I'll have to update the features and reviews pages properly, and get everything in order, which I will do over the next month or so. Maybe a bit more, because I've chosen to do this as I undertake a super ambitious project of epic epicness (it's not that epic). Also, in order to not have the site die with a wimper, I plan to force myself to post properly like I used to until the site goes bye bye, so that the final news page isn't too depressing. We may also switch the site over to wordpress in the process, in case it ever decides to see life again. So, that's what you can expect from the site for the next little while. I'll update this post with the RSS feed once somebody tells me what it is!
