Yep, the thing that first enticed me as a youngster to get involved with Jeff's worlds and work (albeit many years later) was his correspondence, he blogged in newsletters and compunet way before the internet took off.

Twitter and the rejuvenated blog on the llamasoft website are the modern equivalent and I hope they bring many more to the Llamasoft table.

I sincerely hope there's a future for full-time game makers in the industry, particularly Jeff and Giles. They should be given Product of Protected Origin status before the Japanese make their own.

Jeff seems to have hit upon a neat idea, supercharged atari vcs games

judging by the last paragraph it's some sort of iphone/ipad thing, looks a lot of fun, there's something really beautiful about those old game sprites

edit: tsk! grammar
