☆ "The Black Glove" - A Kickstarter Campaign With A Retrogaming Twist ☆ @day4nightgames #GameDev #GamersUnite #Kickstarter

The Bioshock Series as you probably already know is one of the most ground breaking set of video games that have been produced in this wonderful world of video games.

Each game a work of art and always trying to challenge you in a new way....

I adore the Bioshock games. They put you on edge and make you feel that your character is indeed mortal and underpowered (initially) against the in game characters. 

The Bioshock Games make you work hard for your right to exist in the game world and when you succeed it makes it all the sweeter.....

So imagine how excited I was when I came across this great looking Kickstarter from a group of Independent Game Developers who assisted with the creation of the Bioshock games!

This is the story of The Black Glove.........

☆ My First Month With The Reddit Video Games Communities.... ☆ @reddit #GamersUnite #Reddit

Until about a month ago I was a "Reddit Virgin"

I'd heard of the site but didn't really understand the concept

I'd visited it before and didn't quite "get it"

It had seemed kind of amateurish and I wondered at the time "Why are so many people enthralled by Reddit?"

Well, i'm glad to say i've discovered the Video Games Communities and "Now I Get It!"

☆ Game Of The Day "The Terror Aboard The Speedwell" ☆ #GamersUnite @HurdyIV

Growing up I couldn't get enough of the Fighting Fantasy Novels by Steve Jackson & Ian Livingstone....

I'd buy the latest book from the local book shop and then hole up in my room with a dice and a piece of paper and play the hell out of that book.

It felt like they were endlessly re-playable / re-readable.

They were the books that really got me into playing role playing video games as I always wanted to be able to recreate those experiences on a computer screen....

☆ Would YOU Back A Video Game Map Kickstarter? ☆ #GamersUnite #RetroGaming #Kickstarter

Get Your Graph Paper Out! It's Video Game Map Time!

Inspired by my recent post about "MAPSTALGIA" I have started to lay some plans for a Kickstarter campaign to publish a book that is solely a showcase for various hand drawn Video Games Maps.

Last year I backed the "Artcade" Kickstarter project that showcased the Arcade Art from a whole host of classic arcade marquees and I figure that there are plenty more Retro Gaming geeks, Nerds and freaks like myself who would back a similar style book but this time on the classic art of Hand Drawn Video Games Maps....
