Not listened yet but yeah hope there's some decent gaming talk.Listening now. A great get, but I wish it was more focused on gaming and ND, instead of the HBO show which I don't care about at all.
Colin getting some pretty big PS faces recently, with Yoshida a few weeks back and now Druckers.
Oh sure - I'm with you. I get the game, I just dislike the bias as it feels overly….what do the kids say now…glaze-worthy.I give Colin a pass on this. You need to keep good connections in this industry, especially if you have ever been ostracized and like him or not Druck gets everything early.
We all have our blind spots. I remember him being angry during the live show when fans voted the game like 8 or whatever in the top ps4 list.I love LSM, and enjoy Colin's takes generally.
But his bias is always grossly blatant when it comes to this studio, and even in particular, this guy in specific.
Colin's a decent-sort when it comes engaging in the culture warrior stuff, but he loses all his credibility with ND and Neil. Just see his takes on TLOU2 and how he says there was/is no agenda…
you mean the man who also created and worked on some of the best games to ever exist."The Man who ruins many Games"
Yeah, it's been pretty known that him and Neil are friends and have been since the IGN days.Its never been a secret that those two get along, but it's nice to see that the whole "cancel culture" shit isn't stopping him (colin) from getting these guests.
glad to see the tides are changing , ever so subtly.
Chris?We all have our blind spots. I remember him being angry during the live show when fans voted the game like 8 or whatever in the top ps4 list.
I stopped listening to SS because it's like four hours of mindless rambling nonsense and I don't think that one guy brings much to the show. The guy who likes halo more than any PlayStation franchise
Yeah colin wrote the history of naughty dog article on ign ages ago that is pretty well knownYeah, it's been pretty known that him and Neil are friends and have been since the IGN days.
I'm happy to see that the bullshit has blown over enough for people to come on.
I was worried that even Shu wouldn't come on as there was no signs of it when he was doing the first rounds of interviews after leaving PlayStation as Shu and Colin have also been close the entire time.
Colin hinted in one of the semi recent podcasts that his relationship with Sony had changed and that he might have some access again so maybe this is the first product of that as I think he said he was more interested in doing interviews then getting normal access.
I still gotta finish the most recent SS but I'll definitely check this out.
I just know this thread will be full of haters many of which probably hate him because they are too caught up in the woke hate train.
Well alrighty, that's a skip for me then, thanks for the warning lolListening now. A great get, but I wish it was more focused on gaming and ND, instead of the HBO show which I don't care about at all.
I remember a while back when Colin specifically mentioned having a great relationship with Druckman but, that he could never come on the show bcuz he might get cancelled. Love to see it.Its never been a secret that those two get along, but it's nice to see that the whole "cancel culture" shit isn't stopping him (colin) from getting these guests.

Yup, a few years ago this conversation would have been unthinkable.Its never been a secret that those two get along, but it's nice to see that the whole "cancel culture" shit isn't stopping him (colin) from getting these guests.

Definitely not upset…I guess I should apologize for having an opinion of my own based on the many hours I've watched/listened to his commentary on the game, studio and my own perspective having played and experienced the title(s) multiple times;You're upset that he doesn't share the same opinion as you on TLOU2. Get over it!
As woke as Druckmann clearly is, I respect him for being open minded enough to keep his friendship with Colin. Based on the chat at the start, it was also him who pressured Sony PR into working with Last Stand again.Yup, a few years ago this conversation would have been unthinkable.
Colin was considered an untouchable right wing / far right bigot. Druckmann the darling of the left in the industry.
Them having a conversation wouldn't have gone down well with either of their respective fans and followers. So this normalisation, shift in the overton window and them having a chat is a great thing and a return to how things used to be and should be.
True, but sad that it took 8 years since leaving Kinda Funny to "pressure" Sony.As woke as Druckmann clearly is, I respect him for being open minded enough to keep his friendship with Colin. Based on the chat at the start, it was also him who pressured Sony PR into working with Last Stand again.
It's because they fucking suck at playing golfI love how the Druckmann haters can't resist responding to any thread that has his name on it.
I almost though that said "Tiny Hats" at first and was about to have a mouth open moment

Arguably the best part of the show is the mindless rambling but each to their ownWe all have our blind spots. I remember him being angry during the live show when fans voted the game like 8 or whatever in the top ps4 list.

I'm not gonna watch Colin glaze this hack for an hour, but I hope this leads to Resetera trying to cancel Neil.
This is how I know people don't actually listen to him.Colin is such a mindless Sony apologist that he'll invite someone who thinks holding Colin's views is a hate crime just because he has a position at Sony. Too much cult mentality all around

Colin is far from a Sony apologist. He hasn't been afraid to criticize Sony for years even back during his time on podcast beyond.
Just because he focuses on one platform doesn't mean he's a mindless fanboy.

Yeah you definitely don't listen to Colin or Sacred SymbolsColin is such a mindless Sony apologist that he'll invite someone who thinks holding Colin's views is a hate crime just because he has a position at Sony. Too much cult mentality all around
It's more like I don't think Chris ever has anything interesting to say.Chris?
I think Chris brings a lot to the shows because he isn't really that huge of a PlayStation guy.
The problem with a lot of gaming podcasts is people with limited viewpoints IMO. This was a problem with even my beloved Podcast Beyond to a point BEYOND! and basically all platform based podcasts. Beyond was great but it lacked something that made it interesting to people outside of the core fan base as everybody was essentially PlayStation only people (now I'm only talking about what I would consider the golden days of Beyond which is Colin, Greg, Goldfarb, and Ryan Celements). Last Stand's Xbox podcast has this same issue.
Colin is the I only play on and focus on PlayStation guy (he's known to be a prior Nintendo fanboy and still loves Nintendo even if he doesn't really play it anymore and is a big Gears fan). Chris is essentially an old Xbox guy that now plays everywhere. Dustin is also multiplatform but seems to play more on PC then anything nowadays.
I get why people would want all the hosts to focus on the platform but I like that while they all play on PS they all have different viewpoints and all play different types of games.
can you give some examples of thisThe issue is he takes every opportunity, no matter how good something might be to shit on Xbox, Nintendo and PC to the point he is often downright wrong and extreme with his statements.
