Henry Hatsworth is getting some love on the Multiplayer blog and so is it’s creator. I almost put “Kyle Gray’s Henry Hatsworth”, but while he’s the uberman on that project everyone knows it takes tons of people to realize a creative vision. But the attention is justly deserved. I haven’t played the game yet, but I am sure it is great.

Fun Fact: We were on a project team in a Game Design class in college together and pitched an awesome idea (we even had a trailer!) for a next-gen open-world crime syndicate game where people had superhuman strength because it was on the Moon. A couple years later, Microsoft releases Crackdown an open-world sci-fi game about crime fighting supercops with super-strength.

Hmph.

My coworker and friend Jim Preston has a fantastic article up at Gamasutra. It features the phrase “cultural bowel obstruction”. If that isn’t enough to get you to click through, then you are lost dear reader. It beats the piss out of my earlier argument.
