We know it’s been forever since we posted a new show. But we’re not dead, we’re not finished, we’re relaunching. Part of the issue has been workload, part of it has been a reduced show cast (just John & Chris).

But we’re working on a relaunch. If you look to the right you’ll notice that our beloved Justin Robey has bid us farewell, but we’re welcoming Porkfry to the show. We’re very fortunate to have Greg aboard, and we’re going to be doing some new things with his help.

Watch this space over the next week for a couple of older shows to be posted that we never got edited properly. After that the relaunch will officially begin, with Pork joining the cast, and more regular shows after that.

Thanks for sticking with us, we’re just getting to the point where we should all be able to say more about the games we’re working on–we’re excited for everyone to hear more about Crackdown 2, [REDACTED] and of course, [REDACTED]

Thanks,
Platform Biased

We talk about plenty of stuff other than Splosion Man this week, but John goes on and on about it, so it’s the SPLOSION CAST! CAAAAKE!

On the Show:

Seattle Heat Wave!

Chris’ crazy collecting

‘Splosion Man

Gears of War 2 – All Fronts DLC

Mailbag!

“Are there too many multiplayer games?”

“Should developers push to get multiplayer into games that are primarily single player?”

“Is a one console future possible with fanboys, competition, and the Big 3?”

“Can the industry survive with so many AAA titles? Is there enough money for them all?”

A pattern of Holiday delays. We talk about stuff we’re still eager for, John mentions Dark Void, which was then delayed days later..

Bunch of jibber jabber this show. Chris and John go over some news, talk about the games we’re playing, and answer a bunch of your questions about testing & game development, including: How much programming experience do you need to be a game tester, the best schools for game careers and more.
