Long, long ago, back in the before times, we rolled our multiplayer action at home splitscreen style. We'd play Goldeneye 007, four tiny guns and blocky hands each in their own quadrant, on a fuzzy CRT television and we would love it. Part of the fun of splitscreen shooters back when was looking at your opponent's window to try and predict what they'd do.

Screencheat, out this week on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, is designed precisely around this principle. You can't see your enemies. You have to watch their screens.

Come meet the developer as we face off against director and artist Nicholas McDonnell of Samurai Punk live at 4:30PM ET/1:30PM PT/9:30PM GMT.

Thursday 4:30PM – 6PM ET/1:30PM – 3PM PT Arthur C. Clarke said that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Maybe that's why video games seem so remarkable. We meet with the creators of the best games to demystify the process.

I've been playing games since I turned four in 1986, been writing about them since 1987, and writing about them professionally since 2008. My wife and I live in New York City. Chrono Trigger is my favorite game ever made, Hum's Downward is Heavenward is my favorite album, and I regularly find myself singing "You Won't See Me" by The Beatles in awkward situations.
