Joystiq Podcast E3 2010 edition

Dead Space Girl.

I know I'm not the only one who thinks, "about time!" Great to have you back! (:

Do you ever wonder how Ludwig's face always blends perfectly in those shops.

This one is the ultimate proof!

BEST PHOTOSHOP EVER

I oppose the Star rating for game reviews. Can't it just be thumbs up or thumbs down?

About time!! I've missed you guys..

No kidding! This better be an extra long podcast to make up for your extended absence.

"[I]f you want to hear a lengthy explanation of our new review scoring system..."

Stars, right? I think I have a handle on it, thanks.

Oh, how I have missed thee, Dead Space lady.

That is the scariest image I have seen all month. A preemptive thanks for the nightmares, Justin.

Random sidebar on futurestiq. I finally downloaded Firefox at work, but it'd still be nice if the 'submit' button would actually appear when I use IE. As it is here now, I'm unable to comment at work via explorer because the button doesn't even appear.

Also, It'd be nice if comments & replies had more horizontal separation between them, seems to me they're too close together right now and kind of blur together.

Thank you dear podcast for making the rest of Friday at work tolerable.

I lovet his Art! Good job!

A Life Well Wasted and a Joystiq podcast all in one day! This is a good day.

Kinectimals? Are you kidding me...guys...really your a game site, everything on a console is not necessarily a game.

Debating which motion controller is best for casual games is pointless. Real gamers don't give a crap about any of them.

I'm I the only one missing Ben Kweller's 'Red Eye'?

Stars??? Are you kidding me? Especially when Hearts are staring you right in the face.

Is "Capacitive" (or "capacitance") button what you were looking for, Justin?

Justin McElroy is falling with style.

I. LOVE. THIS. PICTURE.

*SAVED*

I almost missed the fact that DSG was shooped on the pic. But the force told me it was so, and there she is!

Nice podcast, haven't gone through all of it yet, but I have to disagree on the Move being such an abject failure. Sure, it doesn't have the level of casual appeal that Kinect is picking up, but I've heard several people say that the conference made them become interested in the Move when they weren't before. I'm one of those people.

I know they probably don't look very cool, but, at least for me, I don't think about how I look when I game. I'm more interested in what I experience when I play. On that note, playing The Fight in 3D sounds wonderful, actually, once the price goes down. Instead of swinging at the air and seeing it happen on screen, maybe I can swing at the image of my opponent popping out of the screen. The Move can even give a little bit of tactile feedback when my fists connects with his virtual skull. That would be cool.

The wider array of game types available for the Move are what draw me in the most. There is support for games I own (eg. Heavy Rain) and new IP's that aren't totally casual and might have promise (eg. Sorcery), in addition to the more casual material that can be useful with friends who aren't usually into gaming. Support for FPS's might also be interesting because I know some people swear by the Wii control in Resident Evil. So even though I'm terrible at FPS's, I can give it a try and see if I'm any less horrendous with a new set of controls.

Anyway, I think that it has a lot to offer the existing owners. Sadly, that doesn't make it a system seller. However, it is a nice addition for those of us who are already sold on the ps3. It's times like these that help maintain the illusion that Microsoft is just interested in profit and that Sony actually cares about our gaming experience. Sure, it's just an illusion, but it's a nice one to believe in once in awhile.

Looking at Chris all I can think of is "Look, I'm Woody! Howdy, howdy howdy!"

Nice pic, why does Buzz have Down Syndrome?

Birthday Suit Samus, Luddy? BRILLIANT! I couldn't help but burst out laughing.

that's a damn good photoshop. nice work.

Dead Space Potato.

They complained about just about everything but never mentioned Old Republic. All me disappointed.

Burlesque show what?
