Operation KTHMA post-hub

  • Day 1 as it actually went down
  • Day 2
  • Day 3
  • Day 4
  • Closing in on Homer
  • The logagonistic system
  • Memories of Egypt
  • Boss Fight!
  • Aristocratic feuding by torchlight
  • The road to Delphi
  • Arts, crafts, and card-based combat
  • Handing over the reins

My Paper Trail

  • Achilles' Phat Lewtz (why that drop really was epic)
  • Quibus lusoribus bono? Who is game studies good for?
  • Creating the Normal Gamer (which is actually about Plato, though it's seemingy ancient-content free)
  • Bungie's Epic Achievement: Halo and the Aeneid (the beginning of this journey)
  • "The Spectation of Gyges": probably the coolest real-classics thing I'll ever write
  • An article about *Middlemarch* I'm kind of proud of
  • Allegory and the Tragic Chorus in Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus (for all your insomnia needs)

Thoughtful critique

  • A place of our (game-critics) own: Critical Distance
  • Ada, another classicist gamer!
  • Chris Dahlen: mainlining creativity
  • Iroquois Pliskin's philosophy 'n' gaming
  • Sparky Clarkson's Discount Thoughts: science 'n' gaming
  • Dan Bruno gazes at the beating heart of game music
  • A man who knows good stories from the inside: Corvus Elrod
  • Leigh Alexander's, er, 'desirable' place :-)
  • The Escapist
  • The Brainy Gamer (Michael Abbott)

Living Antiquity: Classics today

  • David Meadows' "Rogue Classicism": an inspiration to every forward-thinking classicist
