Doesn't mean you constantly have to defend every singe decision your company makes on a program that's mainly supposed to be jolly good fun, not a political debate. See Jeff Green for example.

What did you want e or stepto to do? Blow was constantly at them asking the two questions they didn't have the answers to.

That's the problem, I didn't want them anywhere near the mics. I think Ryan could/should have seen it coming that the discussion with them and Blow was going to drag the podcast to a halt in terms of entertainment value. But I'm sure they've learned their lesson.

They brought Leigh on twice.
So in essence, we're fucked.
 
I think you could've removed Blow from the equation and those two would still be death. I'd prefer if this year they didn't have any of the three, in whatever configuration.
 
man, for a service that's just about serving audio, spreaker is no bueno. and the name bugs me. bummer there's no app version of mixlr, worked well for the tested guys.
 
What sucks is that the sony presser is going to start at the same time as the bombcast tonight :\

Uh, no it isn't. They'll be in the audience for the Sony presser. Bombcast starts at 9 p.m. PDT, which is midnight EDT. Which is three hours AFTER Sony's presser.
 
How sure are you of this? I went tpo a thing tonight and I'm claslsy drunk right now, so I thin it'd be awesome if we knew for sure if there's something to sytay up for you know?
 
Ryan is laying into the new THQ president for dumping on Saints Row 3. He's the last person I'd expect to do something like that considering how often he shits on people who freak out on the internet regarding video games.

@garywhitta yeah, @jason_rubin shouldn't talk about embarrassing #wayofthewarrior
For real, @jason_rubin chose the wrong motherfucking day to talk shit about Saints Row the Third. I'm too raw from E3 to let that shit slide
Oh, also, pretty sure Volition didn't pull some cowardly bullshit and shutter THQ San Diego the day before E3.

this is on twitter, regarding this quote in an interview:
"Why couldn't that be a Red Dead Redemption or a Skyrim?" he said. "I look at that title and I say, ‘Who cares what it is and why it got to be what it is? From that team we can make something that isn't embarrassing."
For context, the interviewer used the word "embarrassing" first, saying he was embarrassed to play that game in front of his girlfriend.
 
Rubin must not have had a chance to check the sales data before making such a morale crushingly stupid statement. THQ needs to shed the few embarrassingly profitable franchises they have.
 
Ryan thought Skyrim was the greatest game of 2011, so not quite not sure why he's against Saints Row becoming a Skyrim clone.
 
Going by the other topic, it sounds like Rubin might have been misquoted? I dunno, seems like a pretty weird situation. Why trash one of your better selling games?

And like I said in the other topic about this, I don't even like Saints Row, but I appreciate that it has its own identity. It's okay for some things to be silly and immature.
 
"if only this game had won one more game of the year award, this would not be necessary," sighs jason rubin as he releases the bees into volition's studios.
