I think it's safe to say that the death of a child is one of the worst things a parent can experience. During this process, there are many different ways that grief can manifest. Ryan Green and his team decided to take their experiences and turn them into a game.
That Dragon, Cancer is a personal story of a man's journey with his young son and their terminal cancer. Playing this game was easily the most emotional I've ever been at E3, and it is one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever gotten to play.
Check out the video for a conversation on the game and creators' philosophy.

According to claims made by Apogee Software, Gearbox Software owes the Duke Nukem creators more than $2 million in unpaid royalties from sales of Duke Nukem Forever.
Apogee is suing Gearbox, claiming that the developer has breached a contract signed in 2010 which awarded Apogee both advance payments and royalties upon the game’s release.
Gearbox picked up rights to Duke Nukem Forever after original developer 3D Realms failed to complete the game after more than a decade in development back in 2009.

Shortly before the reveal of Xbox One, Electronic Arts finally announced it was scrapping its dreadful Online Pass system, due to "listening to the public." While the Xbox One's DRM-fueled strategy renders the Online Pass obsolete, EA is adamant that's not what drove its decisions.
"We're not crafting a strategy to bring [Online Pass] back, you will not input codes to unlock your game, it's not going to happen," said EA Labels boss Frank Gibeau, before going on to say the system was "flat out dumb."
"The amount of money that we made, it didn't replace the amount of frustration we put on our customers and it didn't offset the reputation damage it caused the company. So we said 'it's not worth it,' and so the idea was, look, 'don't do stuff like that anymore.'"
According to the executive, EA has learned not to act like a caveman with a club when dealing with used games, attempting instead to play a more patient strategy.
Ready for some Spencer trivia? I used to play the piano. It's probably due to this that I have a soft spot for the instrument. Julian Kantor has apparently heard my pleas and has crafted The Recital, a game about surrealist pianos and Oculus Rift. Sweet mercy is it cool.
If you've ever wondered what Disney's Fantasia would look like filtered through Tron you have a rough idea of what I went through while playing the game.
Check out the video for a quick look at me stumbling around like an idiot and Julian being more talented/handsome than I am.
