Dave: Kudos to Warren Spector for admitting his game's faults. Perhaps he could bring the game to a few platforms that are better suited for camera-intensive platformers? I'm talking about the PS3 and Xbox 360 here, by the way...
Editorial: Panorama – Addicted To Games?
AJ: The BBC "documentary" on video game addiction turned out to be full of it. Surprise, surprise.
