Earlier in the year we began our LORE contest, a tradition within the Digital Press Guides, real stories from real gamers. Our customers continually tell us how much they enjoy these stories... maybe even as much as we do.
It was really tough squeezing all of the great LORE entries into our upcoming book (http://www.digitpress.com/dpg_plug_advance.htm). The process began with choosing good candidates, then figuring out how many we could fit into the space we had left, then basically RANKING the submissions but I'm happy to finally announce the people and stories that are being published this summer!
"Once You Experience 3DO..." by William Brian Edwards
"Genesis Envy" by Max "The Dragon" Lopez
"N64/Mario 64" by Rob "Flack" O'Hara
"Multiplayer Lynxing" by Ryan "IntvGene" Amos
"Importing Used to be Such a Dirty Word" by Mat "Mayhem" Allen
"Nothing Beats Growing Up..." by Chris "CmosFM" O'Sullivan
"The Curse of the Green Number 3" by Rob "Flack" O'Hara
"My Dreamcast Store Display" by Ronen "OldGuru" Habot
"School + Games..." by Kevin "RetroYoungen" Schaller
"My Jaguar Story" by Brad "Ze_ro" Johnson
"Sega Lore" by John "swlovinist" Hancock
"Gradius III and Me" by Rob "Dire 51"
"Birthday Paradise ... Turned Horror" by Matt "Gamereviewgod" Paprocki
Congrats to you, winners, and thanks to everyone who partiicipated. It was a lot of fun reading all of those entries, I wish I could have used them all. To those of you listed here, please EMAIL digitalpress@email.com with your shipping address so you can be added to the pre-order list. Do not PM me or there will be delays in processing, of this I am certain :)
Special thanks also to William "o2william" Cassidy for his proofreading and invaluable assistance with the coordination of the LORE section.
