Chris O'Regan and Howard Tsao of Muse Games discuss at length, along with why people are drawn to indie games over and above AAA mainstream titles.
The holy grail of multiplayer games is the creation of team based play that infuse a heightened sense of camaraderie between the participants , which is emphasised when in a LAN environment.
