James Cavin, Lars Doucet and Anthony Pecorella bring their RPG title, Defenders Quest, to life in this detailed interview. You will read about how Defenders Quest came to be, the struggles of indie development, their thoughts on the PC gaming industry and so much more. Here is a slice: Did you research similar titles when trying to come up with the launch price? Anthony Actually, we are now launched at an open beta price of $6.99. Well eventually go up to $9.99 when we do the full gold launch with the rest of our features. The opinions we got online tended to echo this the $5 $20 range is about right for solid indie games I think, with the >$10 range really being for the ones that had a good-sized team and a significant budget behind them, or are just that awesome (like Gratuitous Space Battles, by one-man-wonder Cliffski).

A profile of a death machine named "The Hammer"

Bitmob - I know a gamer that me and my friends call "The Hammer." The Hammer received this name because of his blunt-force approach toward gaming. He cares only for violence and death. He has no time for story, characters, graphics, level design, sound, checkpoints, or upgrades. He just wants to shoot people...as many people as possible.

Bitmob - Picture yourself immersed in a new game, and so far its good. It plays well, has a fun combat system, and a world thats engaging. Everything seems right. Everything seems to work.

It tends to be during a beautifully rendered cut-scene, when youre marveling at the artwork and at the graphics. Suddenly...BAM! A bad line of dialogue ruins your experience forever. It feels like getting punched by a dinosaur.

Just as I was deciding dismiss the 360 until the real games started coming out, I kept hearing from friends and reading online that easily the must-own launch game was a title called Geometry Wars. The best part? It was only five dollars.
