Weekend Confirmed 90 - Miyamoto, Live update, Rayman Origins
by Garnett Lee, Dec 09, 2011 11:00am PSTThe Weekend Confirmed crew starts getting into the holiday spirit as Jeff, "Indie" Jeff, and Christian sit down with Garnett for this show. The buzz around misinterpretations of Miyamoto's plans for the future and the new Xbox Live dashboard and its mobile apps kicks things off. We know Jeff loves loving things, and it's obvious he's found a new object of his affection in Rayman Origins. No less fun, but definitely fun of a different sort, Saints Row the Third has Christian enjoying the freedom to fool around without feeling like he's missing out on anything. And of course there's your comments and stories, more news, and Finishing Moves to complete the package.

I don't expect AC: Revelations to be on many lists, but as a huge fan of the series, but I still powered through it in like two sittings. Props to the joy of the core gameplay mechanics and the appeal of the setting, characters and universe, I guess.

As far as Skyrim goes, it should be ineligible for *any* GOTY discussion because of the continued problems with the PS3. Bethesda repeatedly releases broken ports on PS3 and makes no attempt to fix them. Todd Howard is a fraud and should be ashamed of himself.
