GameSpotting
Welcome to GameSpotting number 80, where we score four times the frags.

You know the drill: GameSpotting is our weekly forum where the beleaguered gamers at GameSpot are free to editorialize about any subject they please. So strap in, lock and load, do whatever you need to do to get ready, 'cause it's gonna be a helluva ride. Don't like what we have to say? Then you're free to rebut us in our handy-dandy forums.

 
Someone's Gotta Do It
Greg Kasavin/Executive Editor
"The gaming industry needs a core--a leadership organization to look out for its collective interests and to speak on the industry's behalf when necessary."

 
Where Are They Now?
Andrew Park/Senior Editor
"But Retro's former president, Steve Barcia, also helped design the excellent and well-loved computer strategy game Master of Magic."

 
Are Ports a Fact of Life?
Sam Parker/PC Editor
"It's one thing to develop a game for multiple console platforms and quite another to make the jump between console and computer platforms."

 
No Refuge
Tyler Winegarner/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"It is truly uncommon for a game to trigger an emotional experience, particularly one so devoid of story, but this is something that Ikaruga manages to achieve."

 
Play It Again, Sam
Brad Shoemaker/Associate Editor
"I don't want to buy a PlayStation 3 one day with the possibility that two weeks later a new model will show up with a bigger hard drive or a more stable drive assembly."

 
Opening the Floodgates
Giancarlo Varanini/Senior Associate Editor
"There's just something that bothers me about P. Diddy attempting to create a game about himself."

 
Project: Mayhem
Alex Navarro/Assistant Editor
"When the battle over violent games inevitably comes to a head, do you want a game like Postal 2 to represent games as a whole?"

 
E3: The Greatest Show on Earth
Ryan Mac Donald/Executive Producer
"I could just be crazy, but I think this will be a pretty exciting E3."

 
Why Mods Shall Continue to Rule
Dean Raker/GuestSpotter
"Veteran game developers often talk about the good old days when two ordinary guys could work out of their garage and make the game that they've always wanted to play. Mod makers have that same spirit."

 
I Like Video Games
Happy Gamer/GameSpotter
