GDC started yesterday so after doing some listener feedback, we talk about one of the biggest announcements so far: OnLive. Then have a brief discussion on a move by Nintendo that’s clearly in the right direction.
Random chatter tonight starts with listener feedback and moves into discussion on Starbreeze Studios and their new game, Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.
Tonight we get our first two voicemails, talk a bit about Fable II and Lou gives a nice history lesson about user generated content from way back in the 80s with Pinball Construction Set, to today with City of Heroes.
Third. Discussion of Nintendo’s “New Play Control” moniker, their target audiences, and release strategy. Also, how important are graphics?
Our second show is up and we’re talking about the digital bargain bin, specifically Steam’s deep discounted weekend sales and how they dramatically effect the movement of product.
Our first episode, completely off the cuff (except for the intro) starring Lou Rinaldi and Jim Hunter.
