Now up over at Joystiq is my biweekly “Playing Dirty” piece, “Night Elves on Their Knees.” It’s a look at the Warcraft-based porn series Whorecraft–with more of an angle toward content rather than production, which is what Brian Crecent’s Kotaku feature mainly focused on–and a nod to some video-game slash. The overall point of the piece is to ask the question, is fandom sexy?
In other news, Scott and I are headed back home tomorrow to Philadelphia, fom where we fly to San Francisco for GDC. I’ll be there representing Gamasutra, Joystiq, and possibly New Scientist. I foresee the kind of fun that, when it’s done, you need to crawl into a corner and sleep it off for at least a few weeks. Anyways, I’m looking forward to meeting all the I-know-the-name-but-not-face folks I didn’t run into in Montreal. That’s always an excellent game.

My number one reason to be excited about GDC: meeting Bonnie. I mean, THE Bonnie.

Patrick Dugan, you are such a suck-up ;P. BTW, I saw a pic of you, and you didn’t look like I expected. Then again, I have a friend here named Patrick, so I think I expected his long-lost twin.

That is why I love “Booty Bay” over at Supermegatopia. It’s a series of comics done about Booty Bay, some of them referencing sex, and it’s very very geeky.
