I dunno, you don't invite someone on your show as a guest and then just get really harsh on them, the other people there did a good job of arguing the point anyway.

This isn't the hard reporting show on super serious site.
It's the let's get drunk and tell stupid stories with friends show on the silly site.

fuckin' called it, man
I'm looking at the hatsune miku game
I don't think this person likes it ironically

How long does it usually take for them to put the UPF up on the site? I missed the start
It's usually up by now no idea if it was even archived.
Do you really think they'd get to make another MMO after Warhammer?

I wonder, did any of the guys try out the Steam Controller? I thought at least Patrick was interested in it?

No UPF archive? Worst weekend ever confirmed.

I've only watched the last GDC part and it was pretty good.
Because anyone with brains knows that at big companies like EA, one man never makes big decisions like that. You tow the company line or you don't get on the project.
Feel sorry for the guy; looked strung out.

Did they not do an Unprofessional Fridays yesterday? Or has it just not bee archived yet? Given the lengthy GDC stream I can understand how they might have skipped UPF this week.

Subete no aware
I suppose that's true. Just never thought of what happened to them after the game shut down.
That's true, but there's a little bit of hypocrisy or at least strangeness when Burnett starts talking about reviews and neither of them mention the fact that the people at Giantbomb thought they were misusing the franchise and so forth as well. It was an elephant in the room.
Oh wow I didn't know this was a thing.. xD

Mythic made Dungeon Keeper ios, so yes, I suppose that's their job now.
Fucking depressing.

The way he talked it seemed like he was the one pitching these ideas at EA. Could also be a PR spin, of course.
Cool, thanks!!
No but maybe an actual game instead of shitty skinner boxes for ios that trample on old franchises.
This might have been mentioned before, but apparently in studio the guys couldn't hear the music during doseone's performance, just his vocals. I guess that makes sense, otherwise I'm assuming there'd be feedback problems in such an enclosed space (?), but it sure must've been weird.
What did he say?
What did he say?
They were talking about different areas to live in close to SF, like Oakland, ect. Jeff brought up that he reppin for Peteluma, but how there is no public trans, so he has to drive in to work everyday. That's where the IDXBOX guy came in with, "In a Lexus no less!" and completely derailed the rest of what Jeff was going to say.
EDIT: I swapped Patrick with the IDxbox guy. I got it wrong from the start!

sounds pretty funny to me
He didn't say that, the ID@Xbox guy did.

The lexus comment was made by Patrick.
I find it really weird how so many people comment on their stuff saying something they said was out of line. Poor Kessler gets ragged on too much when he was an intern, Brad and Jeff hate each other, Ryan said a mean thing, Patrick went too far. They're friends as well as co-workers. Friends give each other shit and it's all in good fun.

Out of line Darklord. We really don't appreciate this sort of posting behaviour here.
EDIT: I fucked up and thought it was Patrick but it was actually the IDxbox dude.
This. It is not an expensive car at all.
Dude, you've gone too far. Fuck...

Wow, that must have been very strange to sit through. Sounded great on the stream though.
Just stumbled upon the clip that's the reason that one Emailer on the bombcast thought Jeff hates marketers. Pretty great.

It's as if people in here don't have friends.
Most male friends bust each others balls. It's just something that has been going on since the dawn of man.
Some more thoughts on the GDC Show:
I love that the other devs gave Burnett shit for Dungeon Keeper. The way he wanted to get out of this affair was just ugh....
That whole part made me respect Rami even more.
Also rewatching the end I think the Lang Zone was about to turn into a pretty scary place. Boon really seemed like he was on the verge of punching someone.

Holy crap listening to Paul is so pathetic and sad. He genuinely thinks that people disliked the game just because others did and because it's EA? No people hated it because it was the epitome of everything that is wrong with gaming in 2014.
I'm sure Paul is a nice guy, but watching Paul embarrass himself like that wasn't funny, or insightful. It was fucking sad. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion.

But it's not as bad as Clash of the Clans! That makes it fine right?
No? Well, you know, mobile gaming just hasn't grown up yet! Really we're only doing these shady business practices because.. uh.. because in five years mobile gaming will be really cool. I mean, TV was awful in the 50s, and current mobile games are made like they made TV in the 50s. So yeah, the game is just fine.
Seriously, that dude straight up admitted that the games they are making are shit with that analogy.

Is the compression in the Infamous video a lot worse than normal even on HTML5 for anyone else?
