Editor's Comments
Welcome to this week's column. I'd like to thank Gabriel Ang, one of our long-time submitters, for sending in our sole editorial. He has written an interesting editorial about the importance of music and how it is used in RPGs. There's also a very interesting classic article by Michael Harnest about brand names in video games.
There's a very important announcement coming up in next week's column, so be certain to stop by next Tuesday (after you vote, if you're in the US). It's going to be a big announcement, so send in all your new editorials for maximum exposure.
