Not sure if this has been mentioned....
Check the latest issue of GAMEStm (No.93 - Alan Wake cover) for an 'Adventures in Translation' Jeremy Blaustein special feature.
The feature is a good read and includes a DPS Outer Heaven image and other Snatcher related pics (plato's, video phone) and info snippets. It's pages 156 - 161 if you want to browse it first.
Ay-Thank-You!

Can you give us some interesting snippets from the article for those of us who don't have access to it? Thanks.

Re: GAMEStm Blaustein feature!
That was my article, which I was never credited for. Though I did manage to almost sneak my surname into it - check the first letter of each of the first 11 sentences. If they hadn't altered the very first word, it would spell my surname - now it's a letter out.
Here are some hi res photos of it:

I intend to run a follow up article using my leftover notes. It's 10,000 words currently, and was going to be hosted on several websites.
Would JunkerHQ also like a copy?

Re: GAMEStm Blaustein feature!
Sure thing we'd like to host it as well. However, I think we'd have to wait a few months after publication.

Re: GAMEStm Blaustein feature!
Lucky I mentioned it! That article was my reason for buying the magazine, good work. One thing that was shocking though, was the registration on page 157, 3 of the 4 copies on the stand were almost illegible with the text reversed out of 4-colour rich black and the reg being off... Shame. Were you comissioned for the piece or did you just submit it as freelance feature copywriting? Thanks.

Re: GAMEStm Blaustein feature!
You should have also put this in the ZOE forum, since JB speculates that Kojima named the game as such after his daughter - interestingly, JB also named the cube of Zoe from SOTN after his daughter.
Anyway, I pitched the feature to their retro editor, he said yes and sent me a Purchase Order, I then wrote the article to the PO's specifications, handed it in, and 60 days later received my cheque.
I emailed my second article to Artemio, it's about 9,000 words, and JunkerHQ is free to host it from around April. It's a free article which I'd like as many websites to host as possible, since it uses my leftover notes from the GamesTM article.
Thanks for the kind words!
