April may have been a breather, but that's not the case in May. Alan Wake, Red Dead Redemption, Super Mario Galaxy 2 -- and that's just the major releases! This week, Adam Sessler, Sterling McGarvey, Abbie Heppe and myself headed into the studio to discuss the latest news and highlight two other games worth talking about: Split/Second and Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands.

Feedback -- Split/Second, Prince Of Persia And Insomniac Games Goes 360 Edition »


On this week's episode of Feedback...

  • Insomniac Games announced a deal with EA Partners this week to release a new gaming franchise on both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. What does this pattern mean for the industry?
  • Microsoft execs Robbie Bach and J Allard, two guys who have had a lasting impact on the past and present of Xbox, have left Microsoft. We debate what the shakeup means for you.
  • The Mass Effect movie is one step closer to reality.
  • Killzone 3 was announced and it's Sony's boldest support of 3D gaming yet. No, Adam doesn't have a breakdown, but we do question how 3D can be proven to an audience without glasses.
  • We touch on Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Stands and Split/Second. One is the new hotness, while the other is...well, you'll just have to watch and find out what we think about it.
  • A reader asks us to name our favorite up-and-coming indie studios.

Feedback, asking Adam to make forest animal sounds since...well, we never asked.

    Multiplatform is easily interpreted on my level as meaning "more money". I think the industry is going to a place where exclusives could only mean one or two things. 1. Made by the console's company. 2. A legal contract. Which could be good and maybe I'm wrong.

    Are the glory days of "lets make a video game because we can'' are over? Considering how vast the gaming industry is today?

    You guys mentioned last week about the probable lack of new systems possible at E3 this year. I was just wondering how you felt about how the systems such as the ps3 and the 360 are adding the PlayStation move or project natal. It seems to me sort of a way to extend the life of the system beyond what they had originally intended (which isn t a bad thing). Add this with the possibilities of 3D games (such as GT5 and Killzone 3), I get the feeling that even if a new system were to show up, that we would not necessarily be ready for what is to come, and we may not be ready for awhile. Also it seems like a lot of development teams have just recently started to make wonderful games using the power of the ps3/360. You re thoughts?

    Also, the next year or so is going to be huge for the MMO community, and I was wondering how you were feeling about the assortment of MMO s or expansions coming out (SWTOR, Lego Universe, WoW Cataclysm, Need for Speed, Guild Wars 2) Is it too much?

    Adam Sessler is such a professional with such broad knowledge base and experience. It just shows based on his replies to the team.

    FEEDBACK on TV HELL YES!!!

    and...

    no new consoles, the PS3 and 360 are just getting "good", it always take times for developers to get their collective heads around the current generation of consoles. I excited to see what will happen on the back end of this gaming cycle.

    I officially believe that Feedback would be less informative without Patrick Klepek, and at this point wouldn't be Feedback.

    I really enjoyed this. I like Adam Sessler a lot. I typically think his reviews are dead on. This is the first time I've watched Feedback. If this is a episodic thing I will surely be staying tuned. I don't come on this website often but I think I will be visiting more often.

    I said it before and I'll say it again.

    No I do not want a new console generation, I'm still waiting for two of my favorite franchises to hit this generation.

    I've heard nary a thing about Twisted Metal or Hitman coming to this gen so.. yeah.

    I was wondering what do the team think of Game Maker. Do yawl even look at any of those games created by those young developers?

    I'm glad to hear a mention of Enslaved. The art direction of that game and just style of the universe is something I've been dying to see since watching "Life After People" and a game with parkour style elements is just icing on the cake to navigate something with that kind of beauty. It's good to see it's getting some notice.

    A developer I'd like to point to is Fuzzy Eyes, particularly their Edge of Twilight game. Mainly simple because of the steampunk genre they are using and the dual world design. Production is halted until October, but I'm REALLY hoping that game gets out the door and is good. It could mark the start of great things from a small start up company.

    That episode of Feedback was awesome guys. It's kind of sad to hear about the departure of J Allard and Robbie Bach: Two minds that have opened multiple doors for creative input for Microsoft's Xbox 360 success. And the reviews on Split Second, and Prince of Persia were very informative. I appreciate the breaks in between topics with the wacky sound effects Adam. Can't wait for the E3 live coverage, and the television premiere of Feedback too. In terms of Insominac's decision to jump on the multiplatform bandwagon, I say it's a welecome breath of fresh air. In the midst of Bungie's partnership with Activision, and Infinity Ward's shakeup. Perhaps they'll start out with some downloadable games first and gradually produce more groundbreaking franchises for the latest consoles so more gamers can pick up on their polished gaming experience. And the Mass Effect movie in the making sounds for lack of a better word, Epic. Maybe, the mulit-species dating/save the universe narrative will get an overhaul this time. Depending on Legendary Pictues remaining commitment to the unfolding trilogy's continuity. Keep up the great work, Patrick, Steven, Abbie and Adam!

    On the topic of Red Dead Redemption, I finished the game last week in an effort to not have the ending spoiled for me by any particular site I visit. I was pretty shocked by it, and while I won't spoil it I just was curious if you all believe that games will continue in this way of having shocking things happen to the main character? I remember the first 8 minutes of Mass Effect 2 had my jaw on the floor and the ending for RDR really reminded me of it I actually think its a good idea if there's mortality in games these days, if it feels too safe the characters lose a bit of humanity. I almost feel like this is the death of the Western in the traditional sense, just like the movie Unforgiven so I'm wondering what your thoughts are on this.

    Hey guys, congrats on the whole going to 'real' tv, I know you guys have been getting a lot of pressure from the comments section and whatnot, and I'm glad that the show is popular enough online to warrant this kind of move, if only temporary.

    At the same time, having just finished an internship working for a company that specializes in producing and distributing web shows, I for one don't want to see Feedback permanently moved to regular television. Feedback is the only web show that I watch regularly, and I don't see how anything would be gained by adding a bigger set and commercials. A big part of what makes the show so special for me is how stripped down it is. There's no bull here, just funny, knowledgeable people talking about what they love. I just can't imagine something this simple working on network tv, not without adding something to make it sexier, and by sexier I mean lame.

    In the end, all I've got to say is that I look forward to sitting down every week with a beer and listen to what feels like a group of my friends sitting around and talking about games for an hour. As long as that doesn't get taken away, I'll be a happy camper.

    oh feedback on tv for e3...thats exciting!
    you know, i always wondered why G4 was like...95% crappy old shows (cops, cheaters) and movies and only 5% actual programming. I find myself on this site looking through videos and reviews much more than actually watching this footage on television just because it's all here and i don't need to filter through all that extra garbage.
