Podcast 39 – Poobisoft

As you can see, we’ve got our grown-up hats on this week. Unfortunately, Skype-related issues in the first half of the podcast result in some rather one-sided discussions – as it turns out, it’s difficult to give feedback or criticism on what someone is saying when you can’t actually hear what they’re saying most of the time. Basically, Ian talks about Assassin’s Creed 2 for about ten minutes, then Sean talks about The Saboteur for another ten minutes, then Andi talks about iPhone games for ten minutes, then Sean and Andi talk about the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 beta.

The second half, however, features the usual idiocy you’ve come to expect, helped by the fact that we answer a bunch of listener-questions (thanks very much for sending those in, by the way) with mostly utterly ridiculous answers. We then discuss EA CEO John Riccitiello’s recent comments about not churning out endless rubbish every year, and Ian points out some rather underhand tactics that Ubisoft have employed to get you to buy their games. It’s almost enough to make you feel bad about purchasing Far Cry 2. ALMOST.

As I write this, we’re preparing to record the next podcast with Michael Pachter as a special guest. So, make sure you listen next week, because lord knows he’ll be more interesting than we could ever be.

Cheerio!
