You're most welcome, avocado. Acknowledgement must also go to Jay Parker, the Lead Technical Designer at Surreal Software. [http://www.surreal.com/home/] My posting contains a lot of our collective thoughts regarding the subject of games as art. Thanks go, as well to Ernest Adams, James Gee, and...

Excellent points, purerage. Though I consider members of Fluxus to be an offshoot of Dadaism as opposed to a separate movement. :) To be fair to Ebert, he isn't an artist, as far as I don't count Beyond the Valley of the Dolls [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0065466/] to be a significant...

Shawn- Just wanted you to know that this kind point promoting Ian and Willow Tree -- whether directed to me or not -- wasn't lost on me. As much as I'd love to employ his services as you do at the new GWJ podcast, it would seem he's already quite busy enough doing music for both of your...

Hi Wanderer- The postscriptum in my original post shows that it was already being considered. The original suggestion didn't come from me, but from Archon's posting which shows this was an idea that had already been tabled by The Escapist's staff. The point just got drowned out by all of the...

True enough. That's what many years' work in the field of broadcasting will get you. That, and some solid experience, which is probably the most valuable thing of all. Well, I take that back: it's who you know, ultimately. It's just a game podcast, after all... I do really like The Escapist...

Russ- You raise some valid points. Hey man, low blow. I sent you a congratulatory email on both your appointment to your position at The Escapist and to inform you that I was looking forward to hearing the program at your new home. If you'd like, I could post the body of the email and let...

Hey there, Shawn- Fair points. I'm not asking that you go all "Masterpiece Theater" on me. And I know that both you and Russ take your jobs quite seriously, as much as you try to keep things light on Escape Radio. I never said that I wanted your show to be the All Things Considered of...

I think Sony is in a rut of strangely bad PR. They just can't seem to stop with the media missteps. The PS3 price announcements at E3 started off a string of odd, and very public pronouncements from Ken Kutaragi [http://www.next-gen.biz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3175&Itemid=2]...

----- I read James Mielke's excellent interview with visionary game designer and producer, Hideo Kojima in the February issue of The Official U.S. Playstation Magazine. In the course of their conversation, Mielke and Kojima get into a brief discussion on Roger Ebert's assessment...

Archon- Tom Kim here. To chime as a listener and game podcaster, I'd respectfully like to disagree. Not with your original assertion, but with your conclusion. I was bemused with Russ and Shawn's mocking vibe on the Gamers With Jobs podcast. It helped that they could talk intelligently...
