So… Are You Fallout 4 or Not? The Survivor2299 Hubbub

I remember when I was a little girl, my brothers used to play this dirty little mind trick on me to get me all riled up. They’d whisper fake words into each other’s ears, and as soon as I got close enough to barely make out what they were saying, they would both whisper (albeit slightly louder to make sure I heard): “Don’t tell Rachel.”  It drove me nuts. I just had to know what I wasn’t supposed to know!  Read More →

25 Hours Can Truly Make a Difference! Join Us For The Extra Life Marathon.

Gamers usually start out falling in love with video games at a very young age.

From Tristram To Torchlight – An Interview With Max Schaefer

This last June, Gamer Living sat down with Blizzard co-founder and co-creator of the Diablo franchise, Max Schaefer.  After he and Erich Schaefer left Blizzard in 2005, they teamed up with Fate creator, Travis Baldree, and started up Runic Games in 2008 (after their first studio, Flagship Studios, went defunct).  In 2009, they created a new dungeon crawler called, Torchlight. Torchlight quickly became a favourite amongst fans of the genre and spawned a port to the Xbox 360 console seven months later in May 2010.  Two years later, the Beta has concluded for the upcoming sequel, Torchlight II, which is slated to be released later this year.  Will Anderson and Erik Miller sat down with Mr. Schaefer to talk to him about Torchlight II, as well as his thoughts on Diablo III.
