Beyond Beyond Good and Evil
An
excellent article on
Beyond Good and Evil,
Ubisoft's extremely creative (and extremely ignored) sleeper that has since gained some much-deserved reappraisal since Peter Jackson pegged it's creator to make a
King Kong game to coincide with the release of his film (both of which are supposed to be quite good). The article deals with everything from code to character design to cinematic perspective to narrative framing, and although I don't agree with all it says (I think the gameplay is pretty inspired at times), this is a prime example of how intelligently mainstream discussions of gaming should begin. And go buy BG&E. Many papers will be written on it. And it's cheap.
