The Veteran Gamers Episode 216 – Literally, How Did This Get Made?

Posted by TheDaddy on 6 March 2014

Listen in to hear what show they steal the intro from this week.. We also have a new feature on the show called the ““Sub” Story time” where Stu tells a story that is within his story and he also pre-orders his first game in 2014.

Duke talks more Rust and tells us what he thinks about the long awaited Elder Scrolls MMO. Will it be his next Skyrim?

Stu tries to scare himself by playing amnesia a machine for pigs. However he got more scared when he had a parking ticket

Chinny has finally finished God of War Ascension and talks about why it doesn’t quite live up to its predecessors.

As the news is a little light at the moment we talk about our favourite Third Person Shooters along with community contributions.

Enjoy.

Chinny Plays Papers Please PART 2

Posted by Chinny on 28 February 2014

As we all know I hate weird games. However Papers Please appeals to me for some reason. Watch part 2 of my first ever playthrough.

Bare in mind that this was my first playthrough and I got very tired as I went on and I talked less and less and I went on. I think its very hard to play a game and talk to no one, but hey ho someone has to do it.

Please like and comment on the video. All feedback is welcome.

The Veteran Gamers Episode 215 – First Person Shooters Baby!

Posted by TheDaddy on 27 February 2014

Welcome to a special edition of the show.

This week Duke is still playing Rust and finally checked out Minecraft and The Daddy played Outlast, Broken Age, Vector and TxK.

In the middle of this weeks show we decided to talk all of our favorite First Person Shooters from Wolfenstein back in 1992 though to the present day and everything in-between, we also got listeners to share their views on Facebook.

That was about it.

Enjoy!

Reliable Chaos

Posted by DukeSkath on 27 February 2014

I had an epiphany today. In our lives, things go wrong all the time. Networks get clogged, traffic snarls, people fail to follow through, and stuff just gets messed up. Worst of all, we often have no control over these problems. We can do little things here and there, but we are largely victims of circumstance.

This doesn’t happen with video games. (Yeah, sometimes a video card won’t work, but let’s assume the game works as it’s supposed to.) We have control, but that’s nothing new.

Here, then, is my epiphany: One reason why games are so appealing is that their internal systems are coherent and they are predictable. We can figure out how a game world works, in part because it’s not too different from other game worlds. (This creates a paradox for developers: How to make a world that has new and exciting features, without distancing itself too far from what’s familiar?) And once we figure out the world, we can be sure it won’t change or become opaque in the future.

Just a little something that occurred to me today.
