Have a case of the Mondays? Me too; that's why I decided to brighten your day with a BONUS episode of Feedback. Blair Herter's little black book of game developers knows no bounds. He made a few phone calls, made a some promises of "mantinis" and look who showed up to one of our DICE 2012 Feedbacks: Gearbox Software's Randy Pitchford and Epic Games' Rod Fergusson. The two video game icons were joined by Blair's boss, the executive producer of X-Play, Wade Beckett.

Feedback Does DICE Part 2: Rod Fergusson And Randy Pitchford »


The AUDIO MP3 of this episode of FEEDBACK is available here: Right-click and Save.



If you're not familiar with out guests, shame on you. Randy Pitchford and Gearbox are responsible for Borderlands and the wildly anticipated (by me) Aliens: Colonial Marines. Rod Fergusson and Epic Games brought you these little third person shooters called Gears of War 1, 2 and 3. Maybe you've heard of it.

As usual, this episode of Feedback covers a wide range of topics including DLC, beverages and metecritic. If you loved this episode make sure to watch the other DICE Episode of Feedback. But don't overdo it; you've got another helping of Feedback coming at you on Wednesday.

**Did you notice how badass the room we taped in is? The Video Game History Museum put together a sweet retro arcade and they let us shoot there. Mad props to them

You can thank me in the comment section.

    While the image of Adam as an Amish Wolverine is hilarious, I will say that I think his new look is awesome, don't let the haters and the naysayers get you down Adam =P.

    Awesome Feedback it was cool to see Rod Fergusson and Randy Pitchford on it I am a big gears of war fan and Borderlands fan and hearing that they like to get fan feedback and how they handle it was really cool. But my one complaint X-Play on Metacritic? really, that's a goal? I hate metacritic it is by far one of the most asinine ideas that has come about I rank it right up there with 'The Jersey Shore'. Please tell me this a joke and Beckett was just having a bit of.

    Why does Rod look like he's on the edge of his seat/sliding off the couch the whole time?

    Does anyone else think that alcohol should be a new staple of Feedback? That was good stuff. Wade, you should make more appearances on the show. Blair, Jessica, congrats on getting hitched :D

    Alcoholic beverages should be a staple of Feedback from here on out.

    I love this fire side chat approach with developers these past two weeks. Maybe it's the alcohol, but it feels more natural and engaging. If there isn't going to be a game of the week, I think you guys should try and stay out of the studio.

    Hmmmm. Blair blurted out that he has a baby before correcting himself and saying "my future baby"
    Could Chobot be pregnant?
    Anyone else catch that?

    The worst things about this episode were the short time and the hideous couches...



    ...and the metacritic suggestion.

    Heres some positive feedback: I love feedback. I am so happy for Blair and Jessica, Wade did a great job on his first "infront of the camera" piece. I like Randy so much, he smiled the whole time and was so happy, seems like a great guy, and i do LOVE borderlands. Keep on making great Feedbacks, Xplay's and AOTS'es.
