I am a big fan of Revision 3's podcasts. Today they announced that they would be collaborating with Area5, who worked for 1Up before the ridiculous meltdown. Their show, "Co-Op," is pretty rockin'. The opening graphic is really god-damn cool and drips with that whole Revision-3-New-Media-Vibe that they've perfected. In their first episode at Revision3 they shed some light on Noby Noby Boy, a game that confused the balls out of me, as well as the Playstation 3's "kill"-er app, Killzone 2. Not to mention, Tiff Chow plays a part in it. So that's exciting.
They seem to have a really good energy and chemistry, which is pretty rare. The format is unconventional and conversational, but it really works, in my opinion. I've been waiting breathlessly for a really good video podcast about video games, to the point where I almost started making one myself, but this fills that gap very well. So I can relax. The collaboration with Revision3 should yield some interesting results.
Check it out. New episodes will be up every Tuesday.
I'm sitting in the press room, pretty bored, overlooking the entire Digital Life showfloor.
There are a few other people in here, looking equally unenthusiastic about this place.
I took a bunch of video but, trust me, there's nothing you want to see. The highlight of my day has been getting yelled at by some douche bag running the Gears of War PC tourny. I wanted to invert my controls, which, it seems, freezes the fucking game.
God forbid you hit the start button.
"I told you not to change the controller!"
"I can't play uninverted."
"Then don't play the game!"
"Calm down, sir."
That is how our conversation went. He glared at me. I shrugged. You're a peon in a polo shirt, your life sucks, and your job is to watch people play video games all day. Suck my robot dick.
Beyond that, this place is mother fucking uneventful. Seriously, if there are any Dtoiders here, tell me, I totally want to meet up. I'm uber bored. At least they served me fettucini alfredo.
My name is Robert Martinez. I am a BFA Candidate at SUNY Purchase, for Dramatic Writing. But mostly I play video games. Sometimes I write a blog, and then other times, people read it. I mostly frequent the Destructoid forums, which is not such a scary place, after all.
I watch Late Night with Jimmy Fallon almost every night, and I'm not sure why.
