Weekend Confirmed 104 - Mass Effect 3, Diablo 3, GDC remainders
by Garnett Lee, Mar 16, 2012 11:00am PDTMass Effect 3 tops everyone's list. There's no way the Weekend Confirmed crew couldn't talk about it, but there are no spoilers... hell, Cannata's not even finished with it yet and we wouldn't want to do that to him. It's no secret, though, that the game's ending has rubbed a lot of fans the wrong way. What we want from game endings and the difficulties faced in putting a conclusion on a story we've invested so many hours offers a lot to consider. We also take a first look at some of our impressions from the game being careful to not give anything story-related away. Other things are happening as well. There's the Diablo 3 release date announcement, finally, and we've got a bunch of stuff left over from GDC last week as well. It's a non-stop ride to Finishing Moves.

As a former online video games related content producer and current tech journo I whole heartily sympathise with your woes. You guys are part of an elite group that actually "report" on video games; you encourage debate and rationalise opinion with fact. This unfortunately has a side effect of douchery in a lot of cases but look at the conversation it creates both on Shack and elsewhere, your listeners and their comments are on topic and constructive, it's testament to how well you guys do your show and how proud you should all be of it.
A tip of the hat to Garnett, Jeff and the whole team, I look forward to hopefully catching up with you all again at PAX Prime later in the year.
Well done.

I love listening to the show. I really love listening to a bunch of gamers sit around and discuss things. It brings a lot of happiness to my week.
Please, if you listen to the show and disagree with something or you're perhaps upset, consider how you word your criticizm. If you choose to do so with respect and clarity you'll find you're thoughts and opinions are received in a far more positive fashion as opposed to stabbing at people with sarcastic, snide and rude types of comments. It doesn't cost anything to be nice but being a jerk really takes it's toll on a community.
To quote Bill and Ted: Be excellent to each other.
