Ahead of my NYU talk on the history/future of games journalism, I want to test a theory about how small/big games media is:

I can smell it in the air. This is the first step toward people rediscovering "selling out" as a concept and not a general practice. Online conflicts around "artist authenticity" will be on the rise. Fugazi will, in its way, again become Fugazi
