Told you I'd make a video. It's not nearly as good as I'd like it to be, but I was tired of random problems, both on the computer and off, keeping me from getting it out the door. So there you go. It's done. I did it. Video made.

Next up will either be Why You Should Play Bad Games or Why Dead Rising Needs A Time Limit.

I'm not expecting to convince anyone of my argument, but to present some thoughts about how horror works that helps us rethink its mechanics.
