Weekend Confirmed 99 - Double Fine, Reckoning, Cell HD: emergence

by Jeff Mattas, Feb 10, 2012 11:00am PST

Regular hosts Garnett Lee and Jeff Cannata are away attending to other business, but producer DelRio steps in to shepherd Xav from Joystiq, Christian Spicer, and "Indie" Jeff Mattas through a number of topics. The insanely successful start to indie developer Double Fine's attempt at crowd-funding is discussed, a multitude of listener comments and feedback are addressed, and there's even some time left over to talk about games like Reckoning and Skyrim, and indies like Cell HD: emergence, and Gunpoint.

Anyone getting a vita this week?

I'm getting mine next week I couldn't see fronting the money on a lame game for early access. I'm getting the 3G mostly because Jeff canatta said something that made sense. Spend the extra $50 now just in case they do something really cool with it latter.

So a week and a day after the vita release I'm getting one with marvel VS. Capcom 3 and a 32 gig memory card:) what are you guys getting?

  The Vita simply isn't appealing when I already have a PS3. In a way, it reminds me of the problem I always had with the Gameboy. I bought Gameboys but never really came away satisfied. Until the DS came along and offered innovative touch screen controls, Nintendo portables had nothing to set themselves apart from Nintendo's home consoles, aside from portability. Sure, Vita has touch controls while PS3 doesn't, but it's not unique after seven years of playing DS games.
  
  It'll take more than a second rate Uncharted, Sony.
