Weekend Confirmed 153 - PlayStation 4 announcements, Year Walk, Crysis 3
by Jeff Mattas, Feb 22, 2013 11:00am PSTThe PlayStation 4 has been announced, so it shouldn't be a surprise that this week's episode of Weekend Confirmed is all about the new system, services, and software. Though Jeff Cannata is away in Barcelona, Garnett Lee and "Indie" Jeff Mattas are joined by Christian Spicer and Mike Schramm to break down what's exciting, what's concerning, and that which is still unknown about Sony's next-gen console announcements. Though PlayStation 4 is this week's focus, the crew also manages to sneak in some impressions of Crysis 3, and praise for Simogo's moody iOS adventure, Year Walk. Of course, a fresh batch of Finishing Moves brings it all home.

The funny thing is that at the beginning of the episode after the you asked us to spread the word and give a good review on iTunes I went to do just that, then the hipster BS hate machine kicked in and I asked myself why? What am I getting out of this podcast and it's not much anymore. Mostly a lot of negativity, screaming, whining, board games, MMO/RPG's, iOS games; all piled on top of illogical arguements, drunken ridiculousness and shitty music (Garnett's not Del Rio). So I'm done.
Now as I listen to the end of last Garnett Lee Podcast I will ever listen to, I'm sad it has come to this, I would tune in to get excited about something I love videogames but instead I'm exhausted and drained. And in the same week 1Up closes it's doors too, weird. I do have to say thank you for the last 7+ years but good bye and good luck.
One last thing I'm only a minute into this weeks 8-4 Play podcast and I already have a smile on my face, check it out, it's fun times except when they talk about Monster Hunter but it's JP what can you do.

Hearing people present different positions was interesting and fun. Whatever my opinion, there was usually someone on the show presenting that opinion and discussing it.
One of the problems I had with this last show was that everybody just parroted what others were saying. And I know, for certain, that there is a much larger variance in opinion out there.
Garnett usually tries to play Devil's Advocate to keep things interesting, but for some reason in this episode he just joined in on the echo chamber.
