Six words about innovation or plagiarism (or both) in games
According to tweetdeck, one of the trending:worldwide topics on twitter not so long ago was 6 word stories. In the past few months I've asked people to say 6 words about game design, programming, wargames, stories in games, and casual games.
This time the challenge is this: say six words about innovation or plagiarism (or both) in games.
