    Blank Slate - An Unfiltered Look at the Game Trade

    Seeking to entertain and inform members of and fans of the game industry. Behind this curtain we shall discuss how the sausage is made, so there are no promises that it will be pleasant. Any advice given is about what works for the person giving the advice; every store has a different financial situation, and different metrics, and should make their own decisions based on the best information they have available. Our best information may not be your best information.
