I’ve recently started doing some writing for the new video game news brainchild of my fellow Metafilter user James “jbickers” Bickers.  The site is Hard Casual Gamer; we’re focusing on video games from the perspective of folks who are hardcore gamers at heart but don’t have the time or energy to play as much or as often as that implies.

Hard casual gaming, as it were.  Because it’s been a long time since you were 12 years old and sitting in front of the original Zelda, and you went and got busy with real life in the interim.

My first review is up, a rundown of the (excellent) space-zombie-horror-shooter romp Dead Space.
