Journal simoniker's Journal: Slashdot Games - RSS Feed, Ask Games, Etc.
So I thought it might be a good idea to keep helpful or otherwise interesting info, comments, and requests about Slashdot Games in this journal. Sure, only a few people may check it out, but hopefully those who do may find it helpful.
Firstly, many of you may not know that Slashdot Games has an RSS feed of its own, which is at http://games.slashdot.org/games.rss. Feel free to subscribe, but don't hit it too many times in a short space of time, otherwise the bandwidth gods will smite you mightily. You wouldn't like that.
Secondly, I've really been digging the 'Ask Slashdot Games' style questions we've been getting submitted recently, like 'What's the best 2-player co-op title?' or 'Gaming suggestions for a non-gamer?'. If people would like to submit questions along those lines (say, 'What's the best fighting series?', or discussing the best of a certain genre), I'd love to run those questions more often. They always seem to generate pretty interesting discussions.
Most Slashdot Games posts can only be seen if you go to http://games.slashdot.org, or are logged on and have the 'Sections Collapsed' box ticked for your homepage preferences. That's because they're posts that are intentionally limited to the Games section. If you get really cheesed off with Games posts appearing on your main page, either turn off 'Sections Collapsed' or explicitly exclude the 'Games' section by using the tickbox in homepage preferences. You knew all that, right? Excellent. Any more questions, you know where to find me - thanks for reading.
