Archive: April 2006: “The Game” / Game Reactor
The second article I’ve written that references “The Game” (see my earlier piece on London Game Week 2004) this is a rather random opinion column, roughly based around the idea of viruses and memes; the idea that The Game is a very pure sort of meme somehow forms the basis of a discussion of Michael Jackson’s involvement with Sonic 3 and Introversion winning McNally Grand Prize in the 7th Annual Independent Games Festival Main Competition for Darwinia.
I’m pretty sure I wrote this piece very late at night, and even now reading it I have pretty much no idea what I’m on about. Still, I wrote a sidebar that I found personally very amusing; though I have no idea how well the humour translates.
