Here's a piece of advice from PcPowerPlay: Don't develop another WW2 or Vietnam game. We've all had enough of those things. Its bad enough we still have a few more on the way. And if you do decide to ignore this, then at least make Omaha Beach look like Omaha Beach. Watch Saving Private Ryan. You'll thank me then.
PS In my spare time I have created and drawn out on paper many games, storylines, backstories and characters, none of them cliches. I have been praised for my ideas a lot. Gaming's my life. I'm also pretty good at drawing my own made up characters, and I specialize in games that would prompt modern Christians to hang themselves in disbelief. If only I could show you a few of my drawings.......
