So as you sit back, relax, and enjoy the ending movie you think to yourself, “What the heck should I play next?” This is a question that I’m sure runs through the minds of all RPGamers through the course of their gaming lives."

Editor's Comments
Two new articles have graced our column this week. Robert Flanagan talks about his infatuation with RPGs, and how good it feels to be the one leading the way. Another aticle by Nosperratu rebuts last week's Featured Reader editorial with an alternative point of view. Finally, there's a really great classic editorial by Richard Mitchell that discusses a topic that still exists in our console-centric world.
Thanks for reading and writing, and see you back next week.
