GameBulb features Build and Shoot

An excerpt from the Article:
The gaming industry’s fanbase is a very strong force. They’ll hack, become legal experts and speculate all kinds of things in order to get or in this case keep, what they love. While this can lead to negative moments (See the cancellation of FEZ II) it can also bring just as many enjoyable moments. Build and Shoot is a community revolving around keeping the classic or beta versions of block based shooter Ace of Spades alive after Jagex bought the property from it’s developer Ben Aksoy and created a game that is widely accepted as mediocre.

The previous community administrators for Ben Aksoy’s self-run community for his game are the ones responsible for reviving the game. After Jagex bought up the game, people were being banned for disliking Jagex’s new take on the project and the old community administrators were fired from their positions. The community became very unhappy because it was no longer the tactical, resource-light game that was based upon skill with the weapons and battlefield.
Hi, I'm Kevin, or SnowShinobi. I recently started my new blog discussing the gaming industry and it's various topics, and one of my first ideas was to feature one of my favorite communities, Build and Shoot. I'm rather quiet on the forums, but I play very often on the servers.

I hope you all like what you see, and that I may convince some of you to subscribe and tell your friends. Please read my full article here: http://gamebulb.wordpress.com/2013/08/1 ... the-ashes/

Keep reading,

-Kevin from GameBulb.

Is you IGN Kevin? Nice job and hope the blog does well! If you could post multiple trailers at the top of the page instead of just Shaz's (still lub you bby), that'd be great.

I'm not the Kevin from IGN's writers, actually ^^; I'm stepping on the scene relatively new.

I'm glad to hear all the positive reviews. I'll be bringing more coverage of BnS to the site with time. Don't forget to subscribe!

I meant "in game name" sorry. I've played with a guy called Kevin before and he's pretty cool.

I know who you're talking about, but that's not me. You'll find me as SnowShinobi in the game. I'm generally playing TDM or Arena.
