The Decline and Fall of PC Gaming: Fact or Fiction? Shawn Cooper

Editorial Excerpt: "For years, console enthusiasts have been gleefully predicting the downfall of PC gaming. Yet, despite these dire prophecies, PC gaming has survived..."

The "Versus" Series - Round 2: Player Motivations - Gameplay vs. Narrative Majed Athab

Editorial Excerpt: "Without good gameplay most games are considered horrible; however, this does not necessarily follow that good gameplay equals an instant classic."

Dragon Quest/Dragon Warrior, What's the Big Deal? Joe Bolzenius

Editorial Excerpt: "But one series took so long to innovate into something that is actually good, Dragon Quest."

Adapt This! Mike "JuMeSyn" Moehnke

Editorial Excerpt: "What happens to an RPG when it is removed from the video game medium? Well, it becomes something totally different: usually an anime adaptation."


From the Editor's Desk

Wow, don't you just love the new look? I do. I want to give a giant thanks to our Sound Test Curator and a major help around the site Matthew "barieuph" Russo. Last week he was bringing us editorials and now we have a new design from him. Enough with that, let's get on with the editorials.

Today Majed returns with part two of his series on player motivations. Newcomer Shawn Cooper brings us discussion on PC RPGaming. Is it dead or not? Fan editorialist Joe shares his thoughts on the Dragon Quest series. How good is it? Finally, more from JuMeSyn with talk on RPGs outside of video games. All in all, this should bring about some nice discussion.

Things have really picked up as of late, but that doesn't mean that we don't still want your submissions. We are always open for new and interesting discussion. We have a contest in the works, but it might be a little ways off. Keep your eyes open. In the meantime, send your editorials here.
