This has led to a staggering amount of sales, and made arguably one of the biggest industries in the world, surpassing both the movie and music industry. There isn’t a single person I know, not a single one, that hasn’t at some time been heavily invested in some video game at some time. Gaming in general has taken over our collective consciousness.

The exceptional Rowan over at his corner of the web, (For the World is Hollow and) I Have Touched The Sky, has declared the week from March 28th till April 4th Developer Appreciation Week! I know I’m a little late to the party, this being April 4th and all, but I still wanted to say my peace before it expired.
