The GameSpy Debriefings #114

by Jon Cole in Games728 days ago

After briefly touching on Bioshock 2, the GameSpy Debriefings inexplicably starts off with a little bit of talk about Viva Piñata and Anthony’s pragmatic style of play.  On the topic of Rare, both Miggels and Anthony share their love for Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts and dig up some old qualms that Ryan had with the game’s unreadable text on SDTVs. Fortunately, the conversation swings back to Bioshock 2 and Altano lends a lot of praise to the game’s atmosphere, particularly the sound design.  He goes on to say that he was worried...

Mass Effect 2 comes up and Gerald makes the argument that you should definitely play the first game before picking up the sequel.  Anthony and Brian share their encounters with a lot of technical issues while playing Mass Effect, but Gerald maintains that it’s...

The GameSpy Debriefings are back from their holiday break and things are back to normal.  The podcast kicks off with discussion of potential names for Gerald’s twins, naturally covering which video game character names could be given to children without being completely abusive. Anthony has been playing Darksiders and gives positive impressions very reminiscent of his thoughts in the latest Rebel FM.  He goes on into a little bit more detail about the story, which seems to be paper-thin and a little bit silly.  Regardless of the writing, the...
