We’re pleased to have Matt Gallant guest-blogging here this week on games and gaming. Matt Gallant is probably the only graduate of the United States Military Academy to have fully paid off a two-story house in Animal Crossing. He has contributed game reviews to GameSpot and GameSpy, and has contributed greatly to the overall interactive entertainment dialectic on his personal website. He lives in Dallas solely for the purpose of not having to roadtrip to QuakeCon each year.
