BGPE #30
by bgpe
We’re down a few cast members in this weeks episode but that’s not to say episode 30 doesn’t pack a mean punch. This week we’re joined by Andrew Kent, one of our daily news writers, along with Jacob Saylor and Dennis Patrick.
We start off with a bitter piece of news that doesn’t settle very well with the crew as we discuss Adam Sessler leaving G4. Everyone agrees that Adam Sessler is without a doubt, the godfather in video game journalism. We’re sad to see him leave after most of us watched him through out the years from TechTv to what is now G4. Spinning off from G4 is a discussion on how YouTube user Morphinapg’s creation of the Uncharted trilogy movies. Using cut-scenes and pieces of gameplay, the creator made feature length movies from all three games.
Our hot topic this week is on the subject of used games. As most of us can at times be more obsequious to the purchase of used games, there is a fine line to where video game publishers stand. Not only have we seen acts against used game retailers such as Gamestop but there has been rumors of that these next generation consoles will not have the ability to play used games.
