Christopher Wragg's Blog

I've been passionate about games for a long time and took said passion a step further and completed a degree in Games Programming down here in Australia. I work on a couple of indy projects from time to time, but for the most part am more interested in a more scholarly approach, simply reading, learning and discussing the deeper aspects of game design, and the affects that clever game design can have on players.

Ah hem I don t want the library to sponsor games where the winner kills the most What if they play CTF Jokes aside, I don't think this is wholly a bad thing. Slowly but surely libraries are shifting into a more modern version of the old paradigm. Where once ...

RE: Bragging rights This has ...

RE: Bragging rights This has always irked me, the concept that an item that anyone can obtain if they're willing to simply sink large amounts of time or little with a bit of luck constitutes something to brag about seems wrong. Rather, I have always thought achievements/titles/rewards earned for doing ...

Comment In: CA State Senator Yee Defends Violent Game Law Ahead Of Supreme Court [News - 10/25/2010 - 04:44]

Because it is a simple ...

Because it is a simple smear attack. Regardless of ones personal behaviors to the contrary, one can still be right. For instance, a smoker who openly admits smoking is bad for your health and tries to stop others may be a hypocrite, but he's still right. Not agreeing with him, ...

There's a pretty fine line between satire, risqu humor and sexism. Usually things turn out ok when your around people who know you and like you, if you slip up, and a joke's not quite told the way it should be, or if they don't get the satire, then they're ...
