In any case, the relevance to gaming is not so much the issue for me, as it's the desperate, cloying, "OHMIGOD THE BIG WORLD NOTICED US!" attitude that articles like this embody.

I was going to say something about how they usually include comics that aren't normally about games, but I actually couldn't find any recent examples. They do sometimes, but apparently not as much as I thought.

And yeah, I doubt that Field and Stream reports on it every time someone says they're going to take a shotgun approach*. My point wasn't so much that I appreciate the attitude as that I don't see this particular post as being outside their MO. Which now that I write it out I realize that I'm saying "It's worse than that. They basically do shit like this all the time."

*We should start writing articles like that about video games. Like an article for a celebrity gossip rag that gushes about how a game mentioned Brad Pitt or something.

Apparently purveyors of gadget porn do it too.
