Episode 17 - l33t Game Paddles
Wednesday, September 8, 2010 at 12:49PM Does the gaming media get you? Do your parents?
The man with the PhD and his sidekick decide to tackle one of these pressing issues as they question whether all the free games, press events, and a plethora of online friends has caused the members of the gaming media to become out of touch with their readers.
The duo also discuss the appropriateness of videogames in a job interview, and feast on a main course of videogame controllers of all types.
Well, they don't eat videogame controllers (that would be ridiculous), but they do talk about all the ways the game has been, is, and will be played, from primitive physical controllers to the culmination of 3.5 billion years of evolution.
The episode wraps with DocBrown's thoughts on Ys Seven, and WillyBeans explains why it's a good idea to go back to Dragon Age once more.
Don't worry faithful listener, we get you. We get you long time.
