Soren Johnson of EA/Maxis (that still doesn’t feel right…) is working on his own top eight list – Eight Things Not to Do in game design.
He’s only got the first four up so far, but I’ll certainly have comments when the list is complete. I think I see some common themes running through his work and his list.
Glad that he’s updating Designer Notes again. I really should have a blogroll for developers…

“I really should have a blogroll for developers…”
Yeah, you could move me there. Then I will no longer be some faceless “Gaming Blog” peon. I will be a MIGHTY DEVELOPER.

Okay, Darius. Just don’t forget the little people who were there for you when you were just a Gaming Blog peon!

Corvus: you’re a developer, too, Mr. “I’m-Doing-Writing-For-Published-Games-Now”.

Er… right. I forgot that I’m wearing big boy panties now too!
