I still won't play it

'El Shaddai' on rare video-game turf: the Bible

To this point they've left the Bible alone, I think, so this is a step in a new direction. Still, no matter how well received it is I won't be playing it.

Suffice to say, I'm not a gamer...

Something new

In Bloom

"Flower is the only video game I've played that made me feel relaxed, peaceful, and happy."

What a wonderful idea. I don't know how much it will catch on with the hardcore gamers, though...

"Flower is barely a game in some ways. "There's no score, there's no time limit, there's no death," Santiago says in the behind-the-scenes video."

"...there's no death," It's frightening when this is looked upon as something that defines a video game...

Child labour in Australia


Scientology's child labour in Australia

I found this on Julie D.'s Happy Catholic Blog. It's excellent.
