Weekend Confirmed Episode 17

July 16, 2010 12:00 PM

The power trio of Garnett, Brian, and Jeff celebrate the sun finally making its presence felt in the SoCal summer with a sizzling show. Whatcha Been Playin kicks it all off with NCAA Football 11, BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, DeathSpank, Sin & Punishment: Star Successor, and more. For the budget-conscious this week's Cannata-ford a New Game includes a classic free Half-life mod. In the Warning it's role-playing versus roll playing and concerns over there being too many games; but that's after Jeff hears a little listener feedback on his Deadly Premonition rant. It all winds up in the Front Page with the 1vs.100 cancellation, word on new plans afoot at developer Double Fine, and all the rest of the news.

I will not lie, I jumped straight to 1:05 for the DP segment. Now I am going back for the full show.

I think you explained yourself well enough. It is tough to find a fair comparison to DP as a $20 title. It took me a few minutes to pull my comparison together (And Cars is 29.99, so...).

I tried to think what else was $20 at release - the only thing I could think of was Raiden Fighter Aces.

Makes you wonder - can a comparison like this can even be made in the age of the "$60 to start" games? I mean, just think if DP had DLC...
