Out of the Blue

Blasts From the Past - What today's game designers can learn from Space Invaders (thanks Mike Martinez) is an article on all the gameplay found in some primitive games. Coincidentally this is a topic I have found myself ruminating on quite a bit lately, as I enjoy some of the amazing gameplay in the primitive offerings in an Atari 80 Classic Games CD I picked up. I think I need to work on my Asteroids high score.

Looks like I've been selected as a beta tester for Far Cry.
Was I actualy "selected" or did pretty much everybody that applied to beta test get chosen?

Just curious, let me know if anyone here got an email about this today as well.
