After almost three years of documenting the perpetually morphing gaming industry, this is the final post in The Sandbox. We are moving all of our game coverage to Spectrum's Tech Talk blog and Sandbox will not be updated again. Veteran Sandbox bloggers David Kushner and Harry Teasley will continue to give Spectrum readers the inside perspective on game development and culture. Look for Kushner's new feature on Valve Software's ongoing battle against cheaters and hackers, coming to a screen near you on February 16, 2010.
