Every bit of information about this game so far makes me think that it would so much sweeter on PC. I've preordered the PS3 version, but the scope and ambition that Rockstart outlined sounds like it will produce a game with crazy load times and be buggy as hell.

I'm more curious how much of a bump this will give the Microsoft press conference. Will the portray this game as a semi-next Xbox console exclusive akin to Diablo 3 and PS4? I can't imagine this game won't be everywhere, but it definitely makes the console war interesting if the Xbox has this game and the Respawn game on its side. The trailer has little relevant details about the game beside the final title card. Unless they do something drastic to shake up the formula I can't imagine anything different, another two FPSs from developers with track records in this genre to satisfy the hoard of Xbox live shooter fans.

The people that complain about the uneven podcast quality need to chill out. Its unreasonable to expect across the board hits every week. This is a conversational podcast, there will be lulls during slow weeks, but sometimes gems will pop up. The last month or so has had some awesome episodes, like this week. The rest of the content on the site might be a little slow but it more than makes up for it.

I have the same problem using the site on an ipad and Chrome. I'll click on the Forums tab and it doesn't take me to the forums main page. The pull down menu options do work if I magnify and click in close.

@awesomeusername: Jeff said on ILM that they plan to have a QL this week. I think there will be some backlog Vita QLs forthcoming. I wouldn't mind seeing some PSP/Vita games appear on the various shows. There is some crazy shit that been released in Japan for both these consoles. I think the capture kit is region free.

Haven't gotten around to the SS demo, I will try it out this weekend and maybe jump in. This seems like the biggest Vita game in a while, so I'll at least give it a shot although the Monster Hunter thing has never been for me.

I wouldn't mind seeing the "mature" Jak and Daxter concept art that Naughty Dog floated turn into a game. Maybe Spyro? Would also love to see a Valkyria Chronicles or Vanquish sequel. And I hope Rare is doing something good for the next Xbox, new Perfect Dark (?) Banjo (?)

@theimmortalbum: I think you forgot to link this to the Soul Sacrifice thread, at least its not showing up for me.

I didn't preorder, waiting on the QL before I buy, but feel free to add me, I'm strongly thinking about it.

My three takeaways from this latest batch of rumors is

1. MS is watering down the meaning of achievements (lower than the little they already meant). Not sure how I feel about this. There is something really sleazy about getting an achievement for some cross game/platform promotion. The worst-case scenario I imagine is that Dorritos would sponsor some kind of weekend event in Halo. The player would log onto Xbox Live to see a bunch of crap ads, then get an achievement for playing a certain number of hours during the event.

2. The more I think about it, the less sense it makes for Twitch to ally exclusively with one platform. The best analogy I can think of is Apple and Youtube and/or Google Maps. For a while these were baked into each device now they are stand alone apps. Google has more control over ads for both. I imagine Twitch wants something similar. They will have dedicated apps for PS4 and Xbox. If they came baked in, the functionality may be better but they may not necessarily have as much revenue. Ustream, the less popular service, is willing to make this deal because they are trying to compete.

3. Glad to see Rare doing something beside avatars.
