The first 2009 EXP Podcast is upon us. This week we were inspired by news about a patch coming out for PixelJunk Eden mid-January that will, among other things, lower the game's difficulty. The original
story is in the show notes for the curious listeners, but we mostly use
it as a jumping off point to discuss patches in general, the idea of an
ever-changing medium and Star Wars.
Some discussion starters: - Should patches be mandatory? - Is a patched game a different game? - How do we talk about a frequently updated title? - How much do you hate George Lucas for ruining Star Wars? (Only slightly kidding.) To listen to the podcast: - Subscribe to the EXP Podcast via iTunes here. Additionally, here is the stand-alone feed. - Listen to the podcast in your browser by left-clicking the title. Or, right-click and select "save as link" to download the show in MP3 format. - Subscribe to this podcast and EXP's written content with the RSS link on the right. Show Notes: - Run time: 28mins 1sec - PixelJunk Eden patch coming soon. - Music provided by Brad Sucks |
