Full FeedValve’s Left 4 Dead due to be released November 2008
As you can see from this photo I took from PAX, someone has given Left 4 Dead, a new game from Valve, the finger. Or, more accurately, the thumb. Left 4 Dead takes place during that time that we all know is coming, when zombies walk the Earth. What makes… Continue Reading »
Final thoughts about PAX 08
Some of you might recognize the above comic as Penny Arcade, whose creators also ran the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) last weekend in Seattle, WA (USA).

Cryptic Studios and the PAX Party of Champions
Cryptic Studios was in a party mood on Friday night (August 29, 2008) of PAX, hosting a big shindig at Seattle’s Public Library. Since Cryptic was celebrating the soon-to-be released Champions Online, there were superheroes present. I learned a lot about the Champions Online game. At first I was wondering… Continue Reading »
