I have really been digging how game site 1UP has been changing over the past few months. Rather than cover the same old news that every game site regurgitates, 1UP has taken an approach like that of a weekyl magazine. Each week they have a "cover story," and many of the articles they post over the week tie into the main theme.
This week, 1UP is looking at how comics have shaped video games over the years, and they'll be posting multiple articles each day related to that topic. So far they've discussed how Batman has impacted video games, how origin stories affected game design, and have re-imagined some popular games as iconic comic book covers. All of the articles so far are great, and I think they'll appeal to you even if you're not a gamer. I often talk about how similar the hobbies of gaming and comics are, so it's nice to see a series of articles that examines the relationship between the two.
