When you look into the world of the Open Source gaming movement, you usually see two categories: clones and originals. Originals come under the guise of quick, somewhat shallow pick up and play titles that are innovative in their own right, but not traditionally deep enough to keep the interest of the casual and frugal gamer. Such titles include Tremulous, a strategic first-person shooter, and Vega Strike, a space shooter/strategy title not unlike Descent: Freespace. Many gamers will give these original titles a pass, however, and forge ahead for the clones. These titles serve to closely replicate the gameplay and experience of their retail counterparts. The attraction point of these titles is, of course, the potential to pick up a game for free – legally – that would normally cost the retail-established $50-$60. “I want Quake, but hey! Look at this for free! And I won’t get sued!” It sounds almost too good to be true.

Allow me to be the first to express our gratitude for your interest in checking out our humble abode on the Internet! Welcome to Let's Play! Magazine, a brand new online gaming publication that I hope you'll find is unlike any other publication in the world. How this site came into existence is something I'd like to share with you, as it will hopefully encourage you to visit more and more as content begins to fill the now-empty caverns of our website. My name is Ryan Stepalavich, and I'm the Editor-in-Chief of LPM. I've been working off-and-on for various online publications all over the US, doing various tasks such as file management, web administration, and freelance writing for about six years now. I've worked for several video game publications, in particular. Some you may know, some you may not, all of which will remain nameless. I keep them anonymous for one simple reason: You can't trust any of them. |
