This is a Gaming Podcast lite episode, it’s got less calories because we’re right in the middle of travel plans heading to New Orleans for Tales of the Cocktail (conference). This is also the reason the show is going out late this week as I’m posting it from a hotel room with crappy wifi, but we did it… we got it done. I’m keeping the show notes simple this week because we’re rushed for time.

This week’s gaming podcast is a bit short on news and lacks a gaming history segment but we still managed to bust out a 1-hour show, so who knows how we pulled that off. The news is light, perhaps because of the US semi-holiday known as Columbus Day or because no company wants to rattle the news waves while they’re working on finalizing holiday launch titles. In any case, we’ve got Chrono Trigger as our flash back and this as our news:
The question of the week, what actor do you want to see do a voice-acting role in a video game?

Basically admitting that 3d is more that they can handle …
He’s right about not being able to spot the difference. Usually I play a game to enjoy the action and the story. I don’t pay too much attention to the 3D details.
You can actually play games on PC in 3D, today, using anaglyph glasses and third party video card drivers :O 🙂
@EA and Ubisoft
They need cash … Usually you sell when either you need cash or the asset you’re selling tends to become worthless.
With Assassin’s Creed 2 done, I don’t think Ubisoft is doing bad. So yeah, I think EA just needs money.
