15 Minutes of XNA Game Development fame

PC Gamer and GameInformer magazines have mentioned my site XNADevelopment.com in the articles they wrote covering Microsoft's XNA framework. While my name wasn't mentioned, it was still pretty fun seeing my site in print in those gaming magazines.





I'm pretty sure that GameInformer just did a search for "xna" and grabbed the first 10 community sites it got back in the results, but PC Gamer actually mentioned my site like they had been there.

So there I have it, my 15 minutes of fame. Without ever working for a game company, I have actually gotten something I worked on mentioned in two game magazines.

Crap, I have to go change my pants again, I can't stop peeing from the excitement! My wife will probably be glad when this 15 minutes is over, so I can go back to wearing the same pair of jeans for 2 weeks straight and she can stop doing laundry every hour.

Congrats!!
It's great to be acknowledged for your hard work, especially unsolicited like this!
The first time I got publicity, I was like a little school girl. I was calling all my friends and family. My grandma was like "you got scobleized, what the crap does that mean? do you need money again?"
