As you’ve read my daily newswires (and the stories within), no doubt you’ve seen some of them marked with “SB’s pick!” and wondered how I decide which stories to mark as such.
The short answer: “SB’s pick!” means that I found this story/video interesting, cool, funny, and/or weird, and so I really, really want you to read it!
The long answer: Stories marked as a pick mean one of many things:
–The story is interesting and contains well researched information, or comes from an influential figure in the gaming world.
–The story has interesting info about what happened behind the scenes of your favorite game, how a console was made, what goes into planning a gaming con or show, how a console or periphreal works, or a similar topic.
–The story/video is a look into what happened at an event, or the things we do because we love gaming
–The story is a discussion about one of the gaming world’s issues and what you need to know about it.
–The story showcases one of the stranger pieces of merchandise a game has spawned, or a cool item someone has made that is gaming related.
So in short, I pick the interesting stories that make the gaming community what it is, and hope they make your dose of news more than just release dates, screens, scans, and rumors.
Untill next time, happy gaming,
