Façade Ships! July 5, 2005 - by Ian Bogost
Those of you who haven't seen Façade yet are missing out. It represents the latest and greatest in AI-driven characters, dynamic drama management, and it doesn't give up any humanity in favor of pure technology (The New York Times recently called Façade "the future of video games"). You can read more about the technical details from our friends at Grand Text Auto. Congratulations to Andrew and Michael! POST A COMMENT
