I don't think "cover more indie games" is the best direction of travel for either gamedevs or games media. I think we're at a point where both should focus more on genres, subcultures and tribalism. It's worked for music where you have pop/mainstream, and then smaller genres.

Here's my year in books! And my wishlist is still growing :O And I've said it before, but I wish store/cover/key art for games was as varied, brave and interesting as the cover art for books. Our audience is ready for it!

I met up with Martyn again a few times this year to discuss a potential collaboration, and even though having a stroke had impacted his motor skills, it hadn't taken away his love of games or desire to help others. www.dualshockers.com/team17-co-fo...

Some people call me Andrew, some call me Andy. But, to the guy that works behind the counter at my local Indian takeaway, I'll aways be... It was nice of them to get me a Christmas card :D

Found an old, unreleased, PlayStation 1 prototype lurking in my stash. It was a vehicle-physics stunt/challenge game (think: WarioWare in Monster Trucks). Sadly the Grim Reaper visited the studio while we were working on it. 😢 Circa 1999/2000

I've been hosting Leeds Games Toast events for around 10 years! If your town, city or region doesn't have a regular game meetup, then maybe it's up to you to start one. It doesn't have to be any more complicated than suggesting a time and a place to get things going.
