Weekend Confirmed 142 - Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3, Guardians of Middle-earth
by Jeff Mattas, Dec 07, 2012 7:00pm PSTToday's episode of Weekend Confirmed brings together Garnett Lee, Jeff Cannata, Jeff Mattas, and special guest Nikole Zivalich, and naturally, many videogames are discussed. Cannata delivers some early (and glowing) impressions of the first couple of hours of Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3 gets some more time in the spotlight, and the first console MOBA, Guardians of Middle-earth, gets a bit of scrutiny. Before Finishing Moves and the post-show TailGate, the crew also chats about how best to handle Weekend Confirmed's Game of the Year awards. If you've got some feedback, a preference, or some ideas about how you think it should be handled, make yourself heard in the show comments.

I cannot argue with that. That's the highlight of this game for. The biggest problems for me is that the actual gameplay and production values and the inconsistent quality have me unable to go 5 minutes without letting out a sigh of exasperation. And that's what leads me to the question of it being a good game with bad moments or vice versa, which is ultimately just a matter of semantics. I guess I'm just really stunned at how simultaneously good and bad this game can be.
