Point of reference: Tom Francis' manifesto, which is discussed during the final segment.

I think they recorded it last night when the news was just breaking.
That's a real shame since future episodes will be dominated by e3, hope they eventually get around to addressing it.

I would love to hear their take on it. Garrnet even more so considering hes with Gamefly.

I can't even imagine... I wonder if he'll have his buddy Alex Albrecht on the show to back him up.

Man, Garnett going straight to the throat with "why should anyone trust you?" type questions.
Hrm, he didn't really push him on the SK thing though. Dyack speaks as if SK is an existing entity that he has nothing to do with and is still in operation.

The writing is on the wall, certainly. Skyrim was a year and a half ago now, believe it or not. I'm not convinced it's Fallout though. I think it may be another Elder Scrolls game, doubling down/riding the high off Skyrim's success.
I just can't get excited about another Fallout game from Bethesda after playing New Vegas.
I'm a Vegas man all the way but I still love FO3 a whole bunch.
He made an odd noise when jeff wished for an announcement at E3. Could have seen it at judges week
If it is another Fallout, I just hope that it's not as gray and drab-looking as Fallout 3.
its the post apocalypse, what do u expect
What are you expecting, sunshine and meadows? It would be cool if it was stylized but it's not going to happen.

Listening now and I tend to agree. He was fired up and went about things in the wrong way. Sounds like he regrets how a lot of it went down. As someone who has written professionally, I certainly understand that feeling if looking back on something you wrote or said in the past and cringing a bit. You can disagree with Dyack on some things but the dude is passionate about games.
Also, not that I needed more hype for The Last of Us, but damn, the little bit they talked about it just sounds so damn good.
Garnett did not attend judge's week this year. So I wouldn't read into it.
Good podcast. Dyack went far down the rabbit hole but he was pretty good here. Feel like I could listen a while to him just talking games.
Nice praise for Remember Me. I'm glad Garnett brought up the impact of the remixing stuff. It generally made me feel creepy and bad in a way that no other game has presented. I agree with Andrew that the combat is rough but I also agree with Garnett about some of the strategy stuff. Problem though is you don't need to use a lot of the tools given to you and when you do try to use them they are not as easy as they should be (i.e targeting).
Shame a lot of reviews were so down on it. It's basically Enslaved but with a 100 percent more game. More interesting story and world IMO too.

He mentions it briefly at the end Stu. It's on his list of summer games and he wants to talk about what he has played.

Good podcast, No reciprocity mentions... though I feel a little bit more at peace with Dyack. I'll support his game if the first episode is good or gets made.
John Davison will be back for the E3 week podcast btw and he has a few things to say about the DRM-Used games-Always on stuff

Damn it, I was so convinced Garnett was teasing some inside info on a Fallout 4 announcement in that last episode. Got all hyped after they showed Elder Scrolls Online and transitioned into a post-apocalyptic wasteland, only to quickly realize it was just Mad Max.
Nooo! First real disappointment of E3 for me so far.

Somewhat disappointed that the elephant in the room (the Kotaku article on SK and X-Men Destiny) was largely talked around. It's hard to get enthused about crowdsourcing when the person you'd be giving money to has a history of diverting funding to fuel pet projects.
(I assume this was a condition to getting the interview, lest Garnett go full Shadowrun on him.)
On the plus side: John Davison tweeted that he's recording the new Weekend Confirmed today, so more Johnny English!

He was praising Ryse. Not sure if serious. Someone ask him about that.

Can't stand Gies and his bias towards Microsoft. Simply hearing his voice gets to me.
