Failcast episode 20 beta records tonight; ask Samit questions!
FAILCAST	23 comments

Failcast is finally upon its 20th episode, and we're proud to reveal our special guest for this week and the next, editor Samit Sarkar! We normally don't put up a questions post for a preview episode, but just like with episode 10, we decided to break our rules and gather questions and shout-outs from the community for episode 20 Beta.

So have at it in the comments, and make sure you all use proper spelling and grammar!

How would you feel about NBA Jam Tournament Edition or NFL Blitz 2000 coming to PSN or XBLA? Personally, I would love to play NBA Jam again just to set things on fire.

Being the Grammar-smith that you are, are contractions such as Couldn't've and Shouldn't've grammatically correct? I mean yeah, you could just type out could/should not have, but contractions are just so fun!

What is "popping," Samit? Does the comman go inside the quotation marks, or outside?

Dead Movie Star says:
(# 17) on 11/19/2008 19:26

... comma, not comman.

Dead Movie Star says:
(# 18) on 11/19/2008 19:31

Dear Mr. Sarkar,

Do you sometimes find it difficult or frustrating writing about sports games on Dtoid? Does it ever bug you that the genre is so widely maligned by the majority of gamers?

Hopefully I'm not too late to the party :)
