I have a new book coming out this fall looking at the Doom video games and movies. It also looks at the early days of id Software, Wolfenstein 3D, and features over a dozen interviews with game designers, programmers, and journalists. More info to come later…

Spring is in the air

Here is a true story. I was a student at Brigham Young University. The year is 1974. We had a group of us that played chess, wargames, and had an ongoing D&D game. Our only venue was tables in the student center's bowling alley's lounge. Obviously, it was sometimes hard to set a mood with bowling balls crashing into pins and students at the next table laughing & sharing grasshopper shakes. So we went to the university secretary and had ourselves recognized as an official BYU Game Club. We asked for a room to be assigned to us, so we'd have a meeting place (and get out of the bowling alley). The secretary gave us a room on the 4th floor of the student center. She told us that according to her information, this room was NEVER ever scheduled for anything, so we could have it all the time. We were thrilled. We loaded up our gaming gear and went to the room. It was the girls' bathroom. Which actually had a room number, for some reason. No we never got assigned another room. We just played in the bowling alley from then on. Until 1980, when I graduated. 6 years in the bowling alley.

William Shatner's TekWar: the CD-ROM game. Capstone Software, 1995. This is what the Metaverse could have been...

A wonderful 38ft mural of the late great KURT VONNEGUT - in his hometown of Indianapolis.

@TheNCSmaster He watched the cartoon and played the games when his daughter was little, so he has a fondness for it… and it’s a nice payday besides

It’s legit hilarious that Jim Carrey, an esteemed actor who is semi retired and famously doesn’t like doing sequels Has played Dr. Eggman of all characters 4 times in a row and is pretty much the only thing he’s done in film for a decade

It’s gets forgotten that JOHN CLEESE left Monty Python’s Flying Circus in Season 3 (there were 4 Seasons). Here he is on how his “puritanical streak” led to the difficult decision to leave early & his fellow Python’s reaction & displeasure at his going.

This chart was a “comic book bullpen” staple, tacked up on the wall for reference
