Ep. 2 – Is Gaming On Life Support?

This week Brigwyn welcomes WoW Insider columnist and For The Lore podcaster Joseph Perez aka Lodur as they discuss if the rash of layoffs, downturn in sales means we’re witnessing the slow death of gaming or the possibility of a new renaissance in gaming!

Joe and I talk about:

  • The rise of Indie gaming and how it could herald a new generation of innovation for gaming.
  • How the industry giants are failing by forgetting it’s not all about wiz bang features and awesome graphics
  • What we think was really behind the tragic layoffs at Bioware and 38 Studios and what it could mean to the “Big Guys!

So I hope you enjoy Episode 2 of Brigwyn’s Corner as much as I did recording it!

  1. Heya Brig!

    Bloody brilliant show. Loved the discussion on everything, and in particular on the news of 38 Studios.

    Look forward to the next show and love that you’re embracing the console experience. Not so happy that you’re not on the Battlefield as much, but hey c’est la vie! :)

    Cheers bud,

    Dan

    • Hey Dan!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the show. I was hoping that people might enjoy listening to me ramble about topical discussions instead of just about the latest game I’m playing. So hearing that you actually enjoyed the show really made my day!!

      As far as Battlefield goes? Yeah, I probably should give it another go. Tell ya what, how about you and I get together some time and I’ll let you show me why it’s such an awesome game? Deal?

      And again, sincere thanks for checking it out!
