Weekend Confirmed 103 - GDC 2012 special
by Garnett Lee, Mar 09, 2012 7:15pm PSTWeekend Confirmed goes on the road to the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco and finds some long-time friends of the show to make it a doubly excellent episode. John Davison of CBSi joins Jeff and Garnett for the show, with 8-4 Play's Mark MacDonald and videogame editorial ninja Billy Berghammer tag-teaming the fourth chair. Along with some of the topics of the day from the conference, the group catches up on a long list of games. Halo 4 and the newly announced Wreckateer highlight take top honors from Microsoft's recent Spring Showcase Event, the first look at Medal of Honor Warfighter also gets its due, SSX springs back to the forefront of the discussion again this week, and there's much more. Special thanks to CBSi and GameSpot for graciously opening the door and allowing Weekend Confirmed the space to record the show again this year.

Comments
It's a shame that she didn't really say very much during the shows (would've loved to have some of her input on her experience with gaming) but I understand why, since it isn't easy working the sound engineering for the show.
However despite her barely saying stuff on the show, I always felt her presence on the show, and actually was part of some of my favorite moments on the show history. These include:
- Being able to deftly manage the sound levels when Jeff had his classic meltdown about Deadly Premonition
- On the first "tailgate", sided with everyone in picking the 49'ers to lose, much to Jeff's consternation ("Et tu Booth-eh?")
- Strictly not part of the show, but her efforts in the sponsored cycle ride for charity, which I was happy to donate to.
You will be missed Brooklyn, and all the best!
