Sifting through the collapse, looking for clues.

Quiet Babylon

Help me find an old article about Ion Storm?

Sunday May 18, 2008 || by Tim!

Way back before Daikatana came out, somewhere around Columbine, someone, I think Paul Keegan at the New York Times, wrote an amazing article about the FPS industry, especially Romero, and how they were handling the fallout. Old Man Murray linked to it, I think. I remember a key line about John Carmack being the anti-Romero.

I’ve searched and the best I can find is this letter to the editor which seems to refer to it and this comment (scroll down) which pastes some of the article (but frustratingly has a “*stuff deleted cause it was boring*” section). Anyone know if I can find the full article anywhere? Why won’t the NYT give it back?

Update: Here’s the full article. Thanks Sam!
