It seemed to have a lot of promise, but all I could hear in the office for three days was Mark screaming at the television.

And that dude 100% Mario Galaxy.

Yea that's exactly why, my bad!

When we post a video we associate games with it and it goes in their gamespace. It makes sence for me to tag the Halo games in our Halo Bluffer's Guide but I was kind of stuck without any games to tag with a 8 minute video about friggin loading screens. So I tagged some of the most memorable ones, which included Killzone 2.

It's not ideal, and clearly messed up the site chart a bit. I'll keep that in mind whenever I do the Guide to Menus, or Theme Music or whatever.

For those who watch the shows - Final Fantasy Guide will be up this time next week.

Dude, outstanding work on finguring them ou.t You got most of them, but I'll explain the couple you missed: 3:42 - That's also Brink, one from the "about the Arc" videos they released. A toughy! 4:43 - Insanly Twisted Shadow Planet - It's an XBLA game. Gorgeous art style! I just posted on my blog with the 84 games I used in the edit. Glad you liked the video man, thanks!

Hey guys,

I only joined the UK staff a few weeks ago, but this week we launched the first in a new series I've been working on; Bluffer's Guide.

You can watch it here: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/deus-ex-human-revolution/video/6330366 [editor won't let my link for some reason]

The second one is already in the works and will be up next week, but I'd love to hear your suggestions for future episodes.

It doesn't have to be about a specific series - next week's is actually about a sort of genre/style of game that's been popular in recent years. So we can basically create one based on any criteria that's interesting enough. Such as a game series, a genre, or something in games culture like addiction / pro gaming ect...

So yea, I'd love to hear your feedback on our first episode and any suggestions for topics you'd like tackled in the future.

I'm a big boy - so both negative and positive feedback are welcome.
We honestly want to create an amazing show with Bluffer's Guide, so all criticism is welcomed.

Thanks in advace!

Stunning. Bravo to everyone who contributed, and especially the designer.

Seriously professional looking, bravo!

One of the best ever Gamespot user collaborations. :D

As I just posted in my blog, I saw this on my bloglist, nearly seconds before I was going to start suscribing just so I could be in the chat. :P

I know we're probably in the minority, but I first signed up to TA for the chat and conferances. Also on a production level, the majority of questions for the live show during e3 came from the chatroom.

Look, if worst comes to worst and GS don't implement chat - I'll set up a chatroom on my own server that we can all use and blog the address.

I have to say when Karl told me earlier I was pretty gutted.

I understand that there cant be more than 100 of us that frequently hop into chat for OnTheSpot and the annual e3 Live show, but Im sure a javascript chatroom cant tie up that much of your resources. Hate to say it, but chatting to everyone is the main reason I subscribe. Especially gutted as Im finishing work this week and was looking forward to chatting away in my underpants eating poptarts all next week ;)

If its a personel issue why not allow a few of us temporary moderator status to monitor the rooms. Im free all next week, Im sure Caddy is available for some of it, and im sure edu, sidburn and others would help too.


You've seen how much time we spend on Gamespot each year.
We're lonely animals who deserve the comfort of communication with our fellow nerdlings over the marathon that is e3 :)
