FORT90 X BABYCASTLES PRESENTS HARDCORE FEELINGS

Fort90 X Babycastles

Attract Mode's east coast warrior, Matt Hawkins, is curating a fine selection of games next month at Babycastles, NYC's best indie game arcade. Most of the games will be there all month, but the opening party is the must-attend if you live anywhere near New York. It's also the only night you can check out Super Hypercube due to all the specialized hardware involved. Check out the details below. Hmmm, I wonder how cheap the flights are from LA to NYC right now…

Why You Should Buy Giant Robot 66 if You Like Videogames or Are a Cool Person

Team Meat Interview in Giant Robot 66

Giant Robot 66 is finally here, and I have a few worthy reasons you should pick it up:

  1. Scott Pilgrim Cover/Bryan Lee O'Malley Interview!
  2. I did an interview with Edmund McMillen (that's what you are looking at above) about Super Meat Boy and other incredibly interesting topics.
  3. Gaijan Games Interview!
  4. Indie love in the Players Club section, including Bit Pilot, Desktop Dungeons, Hydorah and Rainblood: Town of Death

Check the gallery for more photos and words. If you don't know any local stores that carry it, you can always buy the mag from the Giant Robot online shop.

I traveled down to San Diego with Anthony to check out Comic-Con this weekend. It's exhausting, but worth it to hang out with cool people and snag some unique shtuff. This year I went for quality over quantity. Check out the gallery to see the goods and drool over the coolest business card ever.

Indie Pointy-Clicky: JBurger on Gemini Rue



Dang. I just realized that I never posted a few of the video interviews we did at E3! Luckily Gemini Rue looks just as good now as it did a month ago, so I think you still should be able to enjoy this.

Again, thanks to Jeriaska for the great job he did shooting and editing these!

Let’s Be Friends: Good Game Get!

Good Game Get! Homepage

I don't know who this Kyle W. guy is, but I like the cut of his jib. He runs Good Game Get!, an excellent supplement for people who read Tiny Cartridge daily and are still experiencing withdrawal symptoms from the Offworld shuttering.
