It still amazes me how many people want them to spend the time and money to remake such a horribly mediocre RPG. :?

Because it was a very important game that many people love.

Yea, tis true I suppose. To many that was their first forray into RPGs.

I have that sort of connection with certain games I grew up playing....someone told me today that he thinks Earthbound sucks and he doesn't understand why people like it so much, I about tore out his juggular.

No court would have found you guilty.

I still need to finish Earthbound. I do see the appeal, it is one of those games that isn't quite what it seems to be.

Olivaw

Hmm

Well he's not doing ZOE 3

I guess it could be Snatcher? I fucking hope it's Snatcher

Either that or it's a) a remake of a Metal Gear game, which would make sense if Kojima wanted to keep on milking that cash cow until it's dry or b) it's a new IP

It's either that or he's gotten the rights to do a game around a different character or something, which almost seems more likely to me these days than a new IP

It's time for Mutant League Football 2.

Gametrailers put up the Konami press conference. It's in 7 parts though. Just fyi in case there's anyone who still hasn't seen it and hates themselves enough to watch it.

I'm gonna watch the Konami press conference in its entirety. It'll be the only one that I don't fast-forward through, skimming.

Nonsense.

Anyone who watches the konami conference comes out as a different and better person.

So I was curious, aside from GiantBomb, what are some good and overall recommended podcasts concerning E3 and beyond?

The actual gameplay of Earthbound is uncompelling at best.

You'll need to be more specific. Preferably I would like podcasts that avoid sales talk and marketing and focuses more on being funny or otherwise laid back.

What's wrong with Giantbomb? I haven't listened to their podcasts in a while, but I thought they were generally liked?

Giant Bomb's final E3 podcast was a giant bomb... of drunkenness

Except it was only this one chick who was really drunk and she was super annoying

Krathoon

Yeah. The Giant Bombcast became a bit of a wankfest during E3.

The gaping holes in our hearts left by 1upYours' absence are still apparent and painful.

ParisInFlames

Weekend Confirmed says wha?

The true hole left in my heart is for GFW podcast and a regular Idle Thumbs.

I tried listening to weekend confirmed. They're even more fanboyish and wanky than NeoGAF D:

That's fairly typical for them though.
