    Im listening to the very first Arrow pointing down podcasts and bombcasts and on the very first bombcast at about the hour and 6 minute mark Jeff and Ryan comment on something that Peter hinted at.
    This something was a " a special AI experiment code named Dmitri " which came to be 6 months before the bombcast because of a special discovery that was made, appearantly Peter then said that this game would appear on the cover of nature/tech magazines.
    I dont know if ya'll heard this already and know about it and that somehow I missed this but it should be intersting for those of you who didnt know like me
     
    It's pretty fun listening to the first podcasts again and hearing all the predictions and very very very early game announcements

    Now that you mention it I do remember that conversation... or maybe it was an interview with Peter Molyneux himself that I saw where he mentioned this.  Interesting, good find.

    Ha, that's funny. The only thing I remember from that podcast is Ryan saying "Look, I don't want to be the anti-porn guy..."

    I think the fun thing about listening to old podcasts is seeing how wrong a lot of their predctions are.  This past Saturday I went back and listened to the old Hotspot where the infamous "Gaming for a is a religion" line came from and early on the guys were talking about Street Fighter 4 and how they thought the game wouldn't find an audience.

    You wouldn't be here, Pie. And that would be the greatest crime of all.
