TGT/TDF Special Episode 04 – GTS Report

Daniel M. Perez — Fri, 09 May 2008 15:16:11 +0000

This episode is going out on both The Gamer Traveler and The Digital Front feeds; my apologies if you get them both.

I had the opportunity and fortune to fly out to Las Vegas, Nevada to attend the GAMA Trade Show 2008, April 20-24 (though I was there April 22-24). There I was able to see a lot of the new games coming out this year, demo some of them, and talk to a lot of industry folks about the current state of gaming and the future of our hobby and industry. I hope you enjoy the report.

For more GTS audio reports, check out Pulp Gamer: Out of Character, Pulp Gamer: Inside Track with Anthony Gallela, the OgreCave Audio Report, and the combined episode of 2d6 Feet in a Random Direction and That’s How We Roll.

Website Woes

Daniel M. Perez — Fri, 09 May 2008 14:11:34 +0000

Just an FYI, recently I had a bunch of problems with this site and the WordPress installation, so after my host made things worse by moving things to different folders, I just restarted and imported the posts. Things should be working fine now, but I now need to redesign the site to where I had it before. Please excuse the out-of-the-box installation and know I’m working to fix it up. Come back in a few days and check.
