Re: Top five people to have shaped video games by Mischief Maker 11/03/2011, 10:33am PDT
I used to explain my anger over Wizards of the Coast, makers of "Magic: The Gathering," buying out TSR, makers of "Dungeons and Dragons" through this analogy: "It's like if Popcap games bought out Id."

I guess I'll have to change that to "It's like if Facebook bought out Id."
