DLC Recording Days: January 2013
Thursday, 27 December 2012 14:34It's coming back! Semester's over, I want to get some episodes of Downloadable Content recorded and posted! Having not done anything in there since the summer, essentially, I'd like to get back to it. I have a slightly smaller course load in the spring, so I'm hoping to have a full year's worth of episodes again, after a paltry 2012. So, between now and my return to school, I'd like to record at least 8 episodes. I am free anytime between now and January 22, but I know many of you are not, what with work and shit. So I'm planning on recording weekday evenings, when most of you are most likely to be home. Here's the list--let me know if you want to be in on any recording! Right now, I'm hoping to record sometime between 6 PM-7 PM ET. This is the schedule I'd like to keep, but it's subject to change, like anything else.
Monday, January 7: Final Fantasy's 25th Anniversary, Part 1: The Final Fantasy series just turned 25 on December 18, so I don't feel bad about doing this late. We will spend the episode waxing nostalgia with the classic series, games 1 thru 6.
Tuesday, January 8: Final Fantasy's 25th Anniversary, Part 2: Continuing on, picking up with FF7 to now. Might hit Tactics.
Wednesday, January 9: End Of Nintendo Power Magazine: after 25 years, the iconic magazine came to an end last month, leaving the USA without a single publication devoted to Nintendo. We discuss it, and what it could mean going forward.
Thursday, January 10: Anticipated Games of 2013: what games are YOU looking forward to this year? Dead Space 3? BioShock Infinite? Another?
Monday, January 14: Women in Video Games: while women (real & fictitious) have made great strides in getting closer to their male counterparts in games and the gaming industry, there's still much to go. We'll discuss the state of women today, and what game developers can do to try to get more equality. For this episode, I'd like to have an all-female panel.
Tuesday, January 15: Fan Influences: just how much should fans influence a game's creation? With social media allowing people to connect to the game developers directly, fans have a much bigger voice in a game's creation, and a game's response. How much should we demand of them?
Wednesday, January 16: State of the 8th Generation: Nintendo has launched the opening salvo of the 8th Generation of consoles with its WiiU. How long will it take for Microsoft and Sony to follow suit? Are we closer to the next consoles than we were at last E3? We'll discuss those developments.
Thursday, January 17: Anniversary episode: an episode discussing a game/franchise that turns 20 this year. Haven't decided which one to choose yet--so far, I know of three that turn 20 in 2013: Gunstar Heroes, Star Fox, and Myst. Your thoughts?
If anyone wants in on any of them, let me know! :)
