1UP Yours Incoming Tomorrow Evening (Post E3 Wrap-Up)

Samus rocked :) It was a shame the stuff we recorded with her at the start got nuked, but it was a good trial run.

Just wanna add that I kinda sounded like Wii was the only thing that interested me at the show. Far from it. But it was the only thing that made me go "well, OK, this was worth being in a plane for 14 hours". There was a hell of a lot at the show that rocked my fat ass off and I was really glad to be at the show to try it out first hand (because that really does make a difference), but maybe not worth that long a flight :)

Skip, you did a kick ass job with the sound quality. Hope you're less stressed now :)

Element - damnit man! :)

Edit - fuck, I use a lot of smileys.

great to hear sales-age "how much did MGS3 sell?!" at the end. hah.

That was great. Luke was all "what is the most powerful IP in gaming", and someone had the never to say "Metal Gear." Luke was making the point about Halo, when it's really Grand Theft Auto, but perhaps he was speaking in strict terms of exclusives. But Metal Gear? Come on. Not even in the same ballpark, at least not on this side of the globe.

I totally enjoyed the 1up podcasts this week. They were new to me, I had never listened before, but these were great and were really the highlight of this year's E3 coverage. I'll certainly be listening in the future.

Well, going by the logic the 1UP people were using the most powerful IP in gaming is none of the above and is instead the Mario collective.

an extension of the sales arguement with IPs though is that these games sell systems to people who dont play the games. there are different power IPs.

Zelda and Halo are examples of games that people buy the console to play. There are people who own an Xbox and a Gamecube simply to play those games.

One could infur that FF7 and MGS2 both made sales for the PlayStation brand yet not every person who saw the FF7 television commercial and thought HOLY SHIT PSX actually played FF7 and MGS2 not only took the wind out of the Dreamcast's sails, but also sold the console to people who were not MGS fans and never played teh game.

Influential IPs are pretty amazing in the industry. I hope we see a few fresh one's pop up in the next year or two.

Well Samus was clearly called Kat at one point. Kat Hunter and jane certainly appear to be friends. So if it isn't her I'm stumped
They called her Kath, short for Kathleen
 
Awesome show. It was alot of fun to listen to. The booze was flowing fo sho throughout the show.

1up yours > 1up show

But I love them both.
 
I really dig 1up Yours, more than 1up show probably, and this last one was pretty good although it had its ups and downs.

The best thing about 1up Yours is when there's just Luke, Shane and Garnett (and well, guess they can bring an interest guest as well :P). The 1up show crew wasn't really that fun to listen to if I'm to be honest, they didn't seem to care much.

One thing I dislike about 1up Yours though is when they have lots of people talking at the same time and they just keep going and you can't hear shit. Also, when they stray too far from gaming-related stuff I kinda lose interest. But other than that, I like it a lot. Keep it up, guys! :D
