Mr. Sterling on Original Gamer
Jim Sterling | 10:02 PM on 03.18.2010 19 comments


O HAI!

More shameless self promotion for you. I was recently interviewed on the Original Gamer podcast where we chatted about Destructoid, and the recent controversies that have made yours truly such a pain in the arse these past few months. The interview was conducted before the Final Fantasy XIII Armageddon, but we touch upon some of the others like art games, Heavy Rain, Assassin's Creed 2 and Deadly Premonition.

In any case, it was a nice rambling load of shit coming out of my mouth and if that gets you off, you can check it out if you want. Or not. Or maybe yes? Listen with your ears here:

Over the past few weeks I've discovered a direct correlation between the number of podcasts Jim is on and my lack of productivity.

Isn't Original Gamer that crappy site that keeps spamming the blogs with shameless plugs that aren't really that interesting in the first place?

I'm about 45 minutes into the podcast, but I might have to stop soon because it's really difficult to listen to people talking (because I can't do anything else while I listen, if I try to read something I need to pause because I'm trying to "speak" both in my mind).

Just wanted to thank you for bringing it to my attention. I definitely recommend listening to it. This is actually the second podcast I ever tried to sit down to and listen. I just have trouble listening to people talking.

@54 minutes now. Sitting here listening to the whole thing. Interesting remarks about Destructoid and business talk. I never understood the concept of "Selling out" myself, and Destructoid seems the same to me as it did back in 2007 or so when I first started coming here.

Finished. Great listen. Keep doing what you are doing, but I don't have to say that, because you will :P.

I'm only able to download 18 minutes of the podcast, it abrubtly cuts off right as you get to the "ps3 fanboys are the worst" bit. I did, however, enjoy what I was able to listen to, especially the part about how you assign review scores based on the text. I always assumed scores were based on an overall feeling of how much a reviewer enjoyed the game, and then the text would reflect that. Shows what I know, eh?

I can't say I enjoyed the host though, he was very, for lack of a better word, irritating to listen to. He seemed to have difficulty conveying his thoughts verbally. The whole "I uh, uh, uh, uh, I was thinking uh, uh, uh" got very tiresome. Not trying to be mean or anything, but it just really stood out. Regardless, what I got to hear was interesting, you seem to be very good at this type of thing, and I hope he gets the download fixed so I can listen to the remainder. I don't use iTunes, so i couldn't see if that worked or not.

Hmm, these other comments came in while I was typing mine. Went back and noticed the player on the site seemed to have the whole podcast. I was using the direct link. Oh, well.

I prefer to listen with my armpits, if you will.

I'll listen whilst playing Infinite Space. Should distract me from the bad voice acting in that game. Hopefully the word "bollocks" will be spoken, that always makes my day.

I enjoyed it. It put me to sleep in the last 15mins though. But in your defense it was like 1AM when I was listening.

I'll be honest, I read that title as "Mr Sterling is the Origami Killer" at a quick glance.

I always suspected as much...
