Weekend Confirmed 67 - Ocarina 3DS, Dungeon Siege III, indie games
by Garnett Lee, Jul 01, 2011 12:15pm PDTSummer has arrived and Weekend Confirmed is ready to take it on with "Indie" Jeff Mattas joining Jeff and Garnett along with special guest Billy Berghammer. They start the show in Whatcha Been Playin? with a quick second look Shadows of the Damned, a first take on Dungeon Siege III, and Billy's playthrough of Ocarina of Time on the 3DS. Jeff brings a smorgasbord of indie games including Frozen Synapse, Jamestown, and Atom Zombie Smasher. The group moves on to discuss whether "community" in games can evolve beyond badges and stat keeping. And in the news the talk turns to the landmark Supreme Court ruling and World of Warcraft going free-to-play--or has it--before wrapping things up with Finishing Moves.

My buddies and I have been having bimonthly gaming sessions, and board-games have jumped into the mix cause somebody brought over Catan last time. So now everybody wants more of that stuff.
