Weekend Confirmed 105 - Journey, Mists of Pandaria, Mass Effect 3
by Garnett Lee, Mar 23, 2012 11:00am PDTAfter a long look at Mass Effect 3 last week, Jeff, Jeff, Andrea, and Garnett turn their attentions to Journey, the upcoming Mists of Pandaria expansion for World of Warcraft, and other games. However, they cannot ignore the interesting turn the controversy over the ending of Mass Effect 3 took with BioWare co-founder Dr. Ray Muzyka directly addressing fans to promise them "clarity" and "closure" through new content the team will create. We also catch up on the announcement of an Epic Mickey sequel along the way to wrapping up with Finishing Moves.

Oh but we've made it so far in story telling as a medium... No it's still just story then gameplay then story then gameplay, and just like porn the 2 don't mesh into one all that well. Unless you're a fan of the medium and can see past those road blocks, but that doesn't make it better.
Journey so what not original look at Super Mario Bros.
Mass effect or you could just say final fantasy.
Gears of war yeah we called that contra.
Oh oh but Heavy rain... Forget about myst.
Listen I love games and I'm dorky enough to love there stories, but at least know what you are in life. There not getting any better they just have prettier shades of grey now.

If you want to be a full time artist you can't live on appreciation.
I would agree however that we're living in a world where the artistic integrity of a lot of mainstream art is constantly threatened by the business aspect. When the means of creating movies, music and games require expensive production techniques the definition of art gets very muddy.
