The HotSpot 01/20/2009

by Jonathan Downin in GamesJanuary 20th, 2009 @ 11:58 pm

There is a big crew on this week’s HotSpot.

The Godfather II sounds like it is going to be interesting.  A GTA style open world game with a strategy element?  Count me in.

It’s good to hear that the game industry is going strong, but it is disappointing that many of the most original and unique games didn’t sell too well last year.  People, please buy original IPs and not just sequels if you don’t want the only games of 2012 to be Dynasty Warriors 42 and Guitar Hero 74.

Shaun McInnis, Tom Mc Shea, Sophia Tong, Tom Magrino, and Brendan Sinclair whack the Godfather II, play with Deadly Creatures, and run down the best-selling games of 2008 before discussion of the story in Doom 4 morphs into an argument about the merits of early American literature in a fairly surreal installment of The HotSpot.

Runtime – 1:50:10
