In Other News – 7 October 2016

rAge has begun, and I realize that some of you have mixed feelings. Some are excited for it, others think it’s same old same old. You know what makes me happy? I got to see some familiar faces this morning, check out some cool games and generally just be reminded of how many people are gamers and geeks in this city. rAge serves as a wonderful reminder that we aren’t alone, even if we just want to play single player games by ourselves and be left alone. So here’s to the gathering of reclusive gamers in one place!
