The Manifesto
A Gamers’ Manifesto
If you’re a gamer, definitely read that article. Here are some highlights:

How, in 2005, can there still be gamers taken in by EXCLUSIVE SCREENSHOTS of games that are obviously taken from cutscenes and have NO connection with what the actual game will look like? I blame [...]
