Game Audio Rewind: 2010

Now that 2010 is closed out, I just wanted to take a second and round up a batch of links to various projects that I was involved with and get them all lumped into a 'splosion of game audio. Every single one of them was made better by the involvement of others, and for that I am thankful.

It is truly a beautiful thing to work along side such creative individuals and to be able to share the common goal of engaging people in the art of sound. I hope that the new year comes with new prospect, and that you will all continue to shape and inform the future of interactive sound to the fullest.

Best to all in 2011!
