Slashdot Mirror
2004 Indie Games of the Year
cyrus_zuo writes "For all those who think that the best games that came out this year were all sequels Game Tunnel presents a different angle on things with their 2004 Independent Game of the Year awards. For those who believe that the best game this year was that badly named expansion pack that they have the nerve to call Halo 2, check out the awards for a different side of gaming than you are used to."
That was quoted from the article.
The server is just crawling after just one comment.
I think the mirrordot mirror will work better.
I didn't see any ads.
And it feels so good.
If you build it, nerds will come. Soylentnews.org
Parent post has been mistakenly modded "informative."
It might be informative - if it were true - but a quick Google search for the three game titles it references reveals that none of them actually exist.
The page at mirrordot shows that the games actually referenced in the article have their own web sites. So if the games listed by "Sheetrock" really existed, Google should know about at least one of them.
We can only speculate as to why "Sheetrock" would post this type of disinformation.
The coral cache is working. By the way, add this bookmark as one of your favorites, and from now on, everytime you get an error message *AND* the URL does not change, choose the bookmark to "coralize" it (NOTE DO THIS IN ONE LINE!):
[ 2]+%22.nyud.net:8090%22;for (var i=3; isplit_url.length; i++){g_url = g_url + %22/%22 + split_url[i];}g_url=%22http://%22+g_url;document.l ocation = g_url;
javascript: var g_url=%22%22;var split_url=document.URL.split('/');g_url=split_url
I have a question about firefox (and this happened while I tried to get the coral link): Why when you are looking at your bookmarks and right click on them, the next time you select the bookmarks menu it doesn't show up?
to see Spiderweb Software's Blades of Avernum tactical RPG missing from the list. I am getting a tad tired of the re-use of the old Avernum engine, but the plots of Jeff Vogel's scenarios and the overall gameplay are just fantastic. Avernum 2 remains my favorite, if only for some of the ridiculous battles that you could face off in the end (one of which had the enemy turns lasting a good twenty times longer than mine simply because there were so many of them). You could keep yourself occupied for hours just playing the various demos available from their site - since each demo is about a fourth of its respective game, there's literally about the equivalent of a game and a half there to play.

ut that's not what the introduction is supposed to be for on Slashdot. It's supposed to tittilate and engage the reader, leap out and shout "this is for you!" whether it really is or not. It's marketing. I know. I was being sarcastic.
