Welcome to GameSpotting, where you've already played this a dozen times before, but you'll do it again, and you'll like it.
Week after week, GameSpotting's comin' atcha with a bunch of new columns focusing on, well, whatever we feel like writing. They always tie in to games, though--we can tell you that much. Read onward and see what thoughts and issues are clouding our twisted brains these days. As usual, you can always send us your own column for possible publication (see our FAQ) or simply discuss what we've got to say in our forums.

"Johan Thurfjell must have realized that the interactive nature of things like video games is a very unusual property with a lot of artistic potential, and he went and did something with it."
Ryan Davis/Associate Producer
"I'm not above a little titillation--after all, I'm only a man. But man, do they have to go and make it all dirty?"
Rich Gallup/GameSpot Live Intern
"You can be the executive producer, Michael Bay, and I'll direct. Whatever it takes to get your vision in playable form."

"The first thing that plodded through my mind when I got a glimpse of the specifications for Sony's upcoming handheld, the PSP, was: I'm going to have to take out a second mortgage on my home."
Ryan Mac Donald/Executive Producer, GameSpot Live
"This week I wanted to point out a few of my favorite video game movies that some people may have missed or might not have heard of."
Justin Calvert/Associate Editor
"I'm hoping that future PlayStation 2 games might boast EyeToy-specific features in the same way that many GameCube games now support GBA functionality."
Tyler Winegarner/Associate Producer, GameSpot Live
"Michael Bell has more than 100 entries in the Internet Movie Database, and nearly all of them consist of voice work for video games and movies."
Frank Valenzuela/GuestSpotter
"I found that not a single person I know who plays games has bought a game guide in the past 10 years!"
