GameSpotting
Welcome to the 74th edition of GameSpotting, where second prize is a set of steak knives, and third prize is you're fired.

This is GameSpotting, reason numero uno that in some states our editors are considered certifiably insane. Here you'll find our views on all sorts of topics ranging from video games to, well, things that are video game-related. Browse around and see what tickles your fancy. This week is the very last appearance of our editorial intern, Jason Brown, so be sure to drop him a line before you go. And as always, you're more than welcome to sound off in our magnificent forums.

 
Carrot on a Stick
Greg Kasavin/Executive Editor
"No matter how great a new game or batch of new games might be, it seems that many so-called gamers are always spending more time and energy eagerly, actively anticipating what's to come."

 
Pocket PCs, Wi-Fi, and Other Wonders of Modern Man
Tim Tracy/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"In short, Pocket PCs are a gadget lover's dream. They're expandable, you can do plenty of cool stuff on them, and they can play some pretty decent games, too."

 
Be a Team Player
Bob Colayco/Associate Editor
"Taking the traditional mentality into a game like CS or BF1942 can actually hurt your team more than help it."

 
Come in, Roger Wilco
Brad Shoemaker/Associate Editor
"I've found that there's not only interest in keeping old adventure games playable, but there are several fan-supported projects to make new ones as well."

 
Ninjas!
Tyler Winegarner/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"Did the guardsmen of feudal Japan often find the need to mutter aloud their love of gardening?"

 
How Far Have We Really Come?
Giancarlo Varanini/Associate Editor
"I understand that they're trying to bring a mainstream appeal to the ceremony, but at the same time the organizers are really degrading the whole idea of an awards ceremony for video games to begin with."

 
Don't Leave Old Games to the Orphanage
Craig Beers/PC Video Editor
"Games are a treasure trove of history and ideas. If we lose that knowledge because of a game company's stubbornness, that will be a sad day."

 
Being a GameSpot Intern: A Do-It-Yourself Guide
Jason Brown/Editorial Intern
"You're probably wondering how I became one of the people who could call themselves a part of GameSpot. What got me here, you might ask? I'll try to answer."

 
Gotta Get the Leads, the GameSpotting Leads
Closer/GuestSpotter
"We're always accepting guest submissions for forthcoming episodes of GameSpotting! For more information, please refer to the GuestSpotting FAQ."
