Weekend Confirmed - Ep. 96 - 01/20/2012

Quote:
Game designer David Jaffe and Gametrailers managing editor Michael McWhertor join Xav and Garnett for this week's show. Along with getting into Twisted Metal and car combat games the crew tackles a wide range of topics including a look at Shacknews's Game of Year winners, the different ways gamers see the balance in games between narrative and mechanics, more hands-on experiences with the Vita, and more. Buckle up, it's one helluva ride to the Finishing Moves.

Show Breakdown:
Round 1 00:00:00 to 00:28:16
Whatcha Been Playing Part 1 00:28:42 to 00:58:04
Whatcha Been Playing Part 2 00:59:05 to 01:27:51
Listener Feedback/Front Page News 01:29:29 to 02:01:28
Direct Link - 2:00:27

No Jeff :(

Anyways, nice to have one thread for the show instead of weekly ones. I don't usually listen until the following Monday or Tuesday so I always figure no point in posting by then since most have moved on.

Random Shacknews news, Witcher 2 is their GOTY
http://www.shacknews.com/article/720...ssins-of-kings

Quote:
The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings may be draped in the cloak of a brutal fantasy world filled with monsters and magic, but it offers an interesting reflection of real-world problems. It's a political drama where those in command are governed by fear and uncertainty. It shines light on racism and sexism in ways that shows developer CD Projekt RED is unafraid to push narrative boundaries beyond most games in its class.
Anyway, let me know if one of the links is broken in the OP

Awesome job with the OP, HamPster. A nice, consolidated thread for everything Weekend Confirmed. Love the little bios on the crew. Should be a good one with Jaffe on board this week. Love his upfront personality.

Let's strap some Semtex onto this bitch, and find the nearest metaphorical bus of boring video games podcasts, because Garnett Bin Lee is declaring jihad on those buses.

GAF hosts it now. Just update it the same way in user CP. Animated gifs aren't allowed anymore.

I wish I had a PS3 to play Twisted Metal, but I can't see myself buying one for just one game, too bad it's not multi-platform, hope it does well and maybe I'll play it on a friends PS3 or something.

I don't think it was discussed in public, but Garnett split with his wife, and is now dating Ariel.

A mega-thread for WC was the only way to get a WC thread above two pages since the last few WC threads have dropped off from their usual 6+ page epics.

You can upload an image on GAF now, 100x120 50 KB max.

I'd say the 'White Boy Wasted' would be a good choice.

When's Jeff coming back?

Question about the episode with Ken Rolston...is he really as arrogant as he sounded, or was that a joke? I got tired of him mentioning that he's an internationally renowned genius over and over and stopped listening after 15 minutes.

I've been wondering about this for awhile now, seems like all the thread tools and search are disabled.

Anyway, will be tuning in, but no Billy Plan-B Berghammer makes me sad.

Ken was just being funny. Highly recommend that episode, especially if you are a fan of traditional (pencil and paper) rpgs, his discussion touches on issues that are relevant to both video game rpgs and the original form.
