Weekly Roundup: February 6th 2009

GearCrave writer Jared Newman and I were playing with some ideas this last weekend.  Coming up with feature ideas can be one of the more difficult parts of this job, but one we both enjoy quite a bit.  When tossing back and forth an idea about Open Source games, Jared caught himself a flash of inspiration.  He spent a good part of that weekend downloading and playing every open source game he could get his hands on.  The result?  His list of 10 Open Source Games Every Gamer Must Play.  Head over there, check out that list, and maybe spend some of your own weekend giving those games a shot.  Leave a comment, and be sure to give Jared a shout out!
