It’s weekend time! I am looking forward to an
exciting one: playing through the second episode of Telltale’s excellent Game of Thrones with Justine, the midseason premiere for The Walking Dead, and
the series premiere for Better
Call Saul. As always, here’s a list of the best pieces I found around the
web this week. See you all again on Tuesday!

The Art of Making Guacamelee!: From Folklore to Finish
Augusto
Quijano
Quijano gives great insight into the tender care Drinkbox Studios put in during
production of their fantastic "Metroid-vania" Guacamelee!

Hindes, Gamespot
YouTube personalities are having increasing power when it comes to
marketing, games. The Battlefield series in particular has been
guilty of paying YouTubers to talk up a new release. I am not a fan.
Patrick
Hancock, Destructoid
KevinDDR has accomplished the near unthinkable, becoming only the
sixth person in the world to achieve this status, and the first person outside of Japan. Watching him play Tetris is unreal.
Katie
Rife, A.V. Club
Rife pokes fun at the ridiculous comments made by Fox &
Friends anchor, Steve Doocy. Boo-hoo, poor boys. Always being put down by the
world.
Christian
Nutt, Gamasutra
A fascinating interview with Dark Souls II produced Atsuo
Yoshimura about the influence the Souls community has on shaping the game. As a
huge fan myself, I'm glad we're being heard in such a profound way.

Opam, The Verge
I find it difficult
to imagine a not-terrible live action Zelda series, but I hope to be proven
wrong
