Todd's columns have appeared in many publications such as GamePro, Electronic Gaming Monthly, PC Gamer, and Electronic Games. Todd is a founding member of GiN and speaks from an "old school" gamer's perspective. Embracing the notions of all classic gaming, game soundtracks, and the original "hardcore style," he also shuns the trends he feels are ruining the game industry, such as the embracement of 3D, the over-saturation of MMOs, and misleading game advertising.

The premise of the first game is that in September 2013, a strain of the Cordyceps fungus, a real-life organism that can take over the bodies and minds of ants, jumps to humans. People who get infected are disfigured and hungry for flesh; billions die and society crumbles. Many of the game’s missions are built around a search for some suddenly precious item — a gallon of gas, a medical kit. Bullets are scanty and your character is usually outnumbered in battle, so you expend a lot of effort sneaking up on enemies and conserving resources with clandestine stabbings.
