Weekend Confirmed 139 - X-COM, Halo 4, Assassin's Creed 3
by Jeff Mattas, Nov 16, 2012 11:00am PSTOn today's spirited episode of Weekend Confirmed, Garnett Lee and "Indie" Jeff Mattas are joined by Insomniac's James Stevenson and Marcus Beer from Invisible Walls. X-COM: Enemy Unknown gets a healthy dose of love from the crew, and the polarizing nature of Assassin's Creed 3--particularly its opening hours--gets discussed. The gaming scrutiny continues with some talk about Halo 4 and the legacy of 007, before everything gets wrapped up with Finishing Moves and the post-show TailGate.

I think I've got my eyes pretty open on this system. I've always loved Nintendo games. I will be satisfied with three or four core Nintendo titles a year. It's the right system for where I am in my life. It will make a great first system for my son, and I have a lot less time to game than I did before I started teaching.
I'm buying Wii-U because I can't skip games like Zelda, Metroid, and Mario. Shooters are a dime a dozen now, but what Nintendo makes still feels rare- even if they've started to dip into the well a bit too often.
