Linking the intertubes
Sep. 27th, 2011 05:17 pmI keep a few links on my blog to other sites of relevance: gaming sites such as Rock, Paper Shotgun and Massively; general gaming interest such as Overclocked Remix and Steam; related blogs from friends and acquaintances such as Femme Gamer and XBox Banter.
The first two are easily found by Google and chances are anyone with an interest in gaming will have swung by the big name sites at some point. The latter is more a case of hearing about through someone else. To this end, I am passing on the pimpage.
In no particular order, I present the following:-
Femme Gamer is a shared blog looking at gaming and geekery in general as written by a group of girl gamers including Kostika whom I've known for years and years. It showcases reviews, trailers, opinion pieces, commentary on gaming in general as well as gaming from a girl's perspective and wider related topics.
XBox Banter is another shared blog with a particular (though not exclusive) focus on XBox games, written by a duo comprising OneAngryBlogger and WeirdWalthamstow, the latter of whom is a man I've gamed with for many a year and lurks about here as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Random Rants & Ramblings is a gaming blog in a similar vein to mine, with game reviews, ponderings and discussions on a wide variety of games-related topics. It's written by one Quilluck, a spurious Norwegian I game with fairly regularly.
Delusional Hallucinations is a blog that's not exclusively gaming focused, but when the theme is gaming it looks at home-made level design - particularly of the Source SDK variety - and FRAPS footage of various games. Written by an occasional lurking Razzad, whom I have MMO'd with for many years.
IF Connected is focused on technology and its innovations, particularly in the mobile device arenas. iPads as gaming devices: it's more likely than you think (the post is in the works). The author is one Ian Fogg and I've both fragged and been fragged by him many times at LAN games through the years.
