Keep it positive, San Diego.
Boy, 2014 was a rough year to be in this gaming thing, hasn’t it? Disappointing games, crushing release date delays, and more scandal than you can shake a stick at have all detracted from why we are all here. In the current stormy waters it can become easy to lose sight of why video games are so great, as well as the fact that every person behind one of these online avatars is an honest to goodness person that also happens to love this hobby. PixlBit is here as an island of calm and hope in a sea of turmoil, and we can think of no better way to remember why we still love games than by putting together a massive feature that involves our passionate staff and our incredibly talented bloggers. We are gamers. We are writers. And this is why we game.
Sense of adventure seems to be the common theme here and I would have to say that's a big part of the reason I game as well. That plus Casey's point about actually having hard work and determination pay off (having spent a year in the "real" world after college before coming back, I know exactly where he's coming from) is what I mean when I say games make me feel like I'm "doing something."
Now if only I'd put it as eloquently as other people. lol Great article!
great job guys!
Page 4 is the sexiest page. I'm on it with Julian and we totally own it.
I'm glad this feature finally came out, it turned out really great. There were more contributers than I thought, and a lot of interesting perspectives.
I put you on the same page with me on purpose. It just felt right, since we go so far back with our blogging. 
Everybody makes very valid points. Awesome article! It's great to be able to include everyone. Pixlbit should do stuff like this more often.
I would love for us to do more of this. Sorry it took so long to get it published!
Great job putting this together, Julian. I shared on FB, hoping some of my non-gaming older friends might read it and give them a better understanding of those of us who do game. No response from any of them, though.
Well this is certainly a pleasant surprise. I had forgotten about this. It's great to see my submission on here. Not to mention all the other great replies. 
I forgot I contributed something to this.
Excellent Julian, Excellent.
