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.

I'm with Indie Jeff on not liking Metal Gear games. I find the melodrama, characters, and writing to be laugh-out-loud bad. While the stealth gameplay was fine in the first game, I never liked how once you were caught it was difficult to aim, shoot, and be the bad-ass that you are supposed to be.

I'm also with the other Jeff on being a GTA hater. I find them to be good sandboxes, but bad games unlike Skyrim, Red Dead Redemption, and Saints Row the Third which are good games and good sandboxes.

Just thought I'd let the Jeffs know they aren't freaks for not liking such well-loved games! I swear I'm not trying to troll, just agree with opinions previously shared for some hater-solidarity.
