Hi, Jess. Great shown, as usual. Today I'd like to comment a little further:

5 - PS4 5.5 Gb for devs? I guess the hardware differences between PS4 and X1 are nothing to fear for now. There's almost none, really!

4 - Fish quitting games? Well, if he can't take on the pressure, he is free to leave. You can't feed the trolls in the internet.

3 - BioShock DLC? Damn, haven't played the main game yet. Or any other BioShocks... yet...

2 - Matchmaking Enforcement? That's a great move from Microsoft. Totally approved.

1- Friends list of 2k friends? Hell, I have 2 or 3 friends in real life, LOL, will you be my friend on Steam/Xbox, Jess? LOL.

And thanks, Jess. I asked for more Seb on GameSpot shows and there he was presenting Feedbackula. Thanks for passing on my message. I'm a Seb fan, I guess, LOL.

@JFERNANDEZ84 Yes, Jess is the best. I concur. I'd like to tackle your other 5 points head on.

5) eh.

4) Fish is being a baby. He does not HAVE to be in the public eye. He can develop from behind the scenes. Unlike Jess who has to have a visual presence to do her job. Also, he could stop reading the internet. The fact he has to google himself or Fez shows he is rather insecure. GET A THERAPIST LIKE TONY SOPRANO GOD DAMMIT.

3) I know what you mean. I never finished BioShock 1. Not because I did not like it, I really really did, but because I was borowing it from a friend, and then I moved to the sticks and had to return it. I actually own it and the sequel now, and don't even want to think about Infinite until I beat those two... but I have to, because this burial at sea thing is AWESOME

2) They tell us about the new innovative match making that will team people up based on similar skill levels. EVERY GENERATION. It was never what was promised, and I doubt it is now. I actually like the idea of community enforcement though.

1) I don't talk to most of my xbox live friends. I played with them once or twice, and then never again. but a solid core of 15-20 are a real hoot and I played with them often (hardly on line right now). It sounded like Jess was suggesting she could not reach the 100 herself, but that seems unlikely. In any case, I think I will hunt down her gamertag. Mine is KineticThree you should add me JFERNANDEZ84 especially if you like multiplayer Gears of War... though I have not really touched Judgment much yet.

@SolanOcard @JFERNANDEZ84 LOL, I'll re-tackle then:

5 - Yep;

4 - Maybe but he's free to qut and get to know himself doing other stuff. It's part of the human nature;

3 - I bought it on Steam but I didn't had the time to play it yet... :/

2 - Yeah, me too;

1 - Will do, buddy. You'll be my 6th or 7th friend on Xbox LIVE, LOL. I wanna play GoW3. I'd play the second one on Insane with ye but I promised a friend I'd finish it with him. But we can do the hordes too.

@tempertress @JFERNANDEZ84 I don't get you game journalists who do not have every console/ hand held. It should be written in your contracts to be given one for home use!

@SolanOcard @JFERNANDEZ84 Well we're people too - it's like not all of us have or have played every game. Also I'm not made of money and my PS3 suits me fine.

They're in Rapture now, so that was the incinerate plasmid, not the devil's kiss vigor. =D

@harry_james_pot Still Booker though! So I think it's still a vigor - TECHNICALLY. If the game comes out and I'm wrong I'll apologise.

@tempertress Well yes it's still Booker, but is it the same Booker? It doesn't look like it. As far as I know, Rapture and Columbia don't exist in the same universe anyway.

The incinerate plasmid in the first game works exactly like in this video, by a finger snap. That's the main reason I think it's a plasmid. =)

Why do people say "console war" a real console war would be two sides armed with 360s and PS3s shooting halo and uncharted at one another, laying Gamecube mines, and using unsold Vitas and Wii Us as barracks

@Axile11 Just because the world has hit the fan doesn't mean it can''t have some form of beauty in it. Thats the fun of everything falling to pieces is that there is always some form of beauty, plus how the world fell apart may in itself be very beautiful. Just my .02 worth

I'm sitting at 4 friends on the PS3 and 3 on the 360. Sarcastic friend cap comments aside, I think this means the PS3 won the console war!

Fish is an idiot that's what I think. And Seb puts it better, it's like he's been introduced to the internet recently and got over-butthurt.

@LGMRTBM I don't know the situation or him well enough to make a judgement call but it's his life - Seb puts it well but I don't agree, I think dealing with trolls and criticism when you didn't realise that's what you would be signing up for as an indie dev can be really rough and not everybody can deal with it.

Some people are better at handling and compartmentalizing criticism, obviously he's not one of these people and whilst it's a pity that's his call.

@tempertress @LGMRTBM Indeed not everybody can handle it, especially Fish. I don't know if you have seen the Indie Game: The Movie, but if you do, you'll notice that there is just something off with Fish, like he can be quite "weird" at times he's just ill-tempered.

I do not know him well enough either, but what I do know about him is that he's an artist. And when an artist is criticized about his work and/or doings he will immediately take it as something personally offensive and that's exactly what happened. He couldn't deal with the pressure and he snapped. I can't say that it's his fault, because it isn't he just doesn't have the stomach for it and it's understandable, but I still find it fucking ridiculous how he handled things, it just blows my mind.

@LGMRTBM It's his game, he's the developer, and it's his title. If he doesn't want to do it anymore, that's his call and his own loss.

@Trickymaster @LGMRTBM Yes, but I wasn't talking about the game, I never played Fez so I don't really care about Fez II getting canned.


What I do care about was his reaction and how he handled things after being insulted by Beer. He has a fucking child mentality saying "compare your life to mine and then kill yourself" to Beer. He got insulted and rightfully so, by saying stuff like what Jess mention "gamers are the worst fucking people" and saying Japanese games are horrible. He was calling for it, it's the truth man.

@LGMRTBM @Trickymaster Beer was ridiculously childish, too. I'm not gonna judge people when they snap. People always expect others to be perfect. Why can't you rage once in a while?

Ms. McDonell, I wish you a very funny weekend, full of coconut yogurt, oreo cookies and Placebo rock music. Should you go to a party, do not drink too much and drive safely :) Byes!
