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.

The best way for me to sum up how I feel about that ending is this. For 100+ hours Bioware told a great story, introduced great characters and really made you think about some of your choices. For one of those choices if you'd told me that after playing the first game I'd be making the choice I'd be making I would think it laughable but there I am making that choice. Loved a lot of things about all 3 games but the last 10 minutes really soured me on the whole thing.

Really, widespread scorn for Bioware kind of began with Dragon Age 2 and the recycled environments that plagued that title. The Command and Conqure/Bioware branding also felt a bit disingenuouse.
The only bit of this I find ridiculous is the day one DLC brouhaha. The From Ashes content was made for the collectors edition. That I was able to purchase it despite not reserving the collectors edition was a good thing to me. I meant to reserve that version, but accidentally didn't. Sure, it was major content, but isn't that a good thing for those that purchased the collectors edition?
