A: The science fiction setting really opened up a lot of avenues for us in terms how the story could be told, the interesting moral decisions, and the types of combat we could use. It wasn't a case of losing interest in fantasy -- which we still all love -- it was more of a case of wanting to scratch a different creative itch.

Steam has always had some sick deals every weekend, but this last week has been incredible. Just bought Bioshock and Burnout for a total of $12.50. I like the idea of not having to pay a sales tax either.
