The Lost Level: Episode Fifty-Five

episode 55

Guys! Guys guys guys guys guys guys! Next Gen is coming! Yes, Sony officially announced that PlayStation is coming, so how could we not talk about it on our podcast. Adam and Alex discuss why it has them so excited, while Chris is old and fears change. Granted this generation of console has lasted 7 years, so he just probably grew comfortable and complacent in playing Halo as he drinks hot cocoa while wearing his robe and slippers that are most likely bunny in theme. From that, we go into our weekly news in video games and movies. So, won’t you join us as we anticipate the future.

The Lost Level: Episode Forty Six

This week, Chris, Adam, and Alex all talk about their experience with Borderlands 2, and the addiction that it has placed upon them. Thankfully, Chris and Adam were both strong-willed enough to tear themselves away from their respective gaming consoles long enough to see Looper so that they could give you their impressions of this latest sci-fi time traveling movie. Finally, we go into the week’s news for video games and movies. Now, let’s get his show on the road.

A Lot of Metal Gear Solid News

There was a party for the 25th anniversary of  Metal Gear the other night, and a lot of interesting news came from it. No, it’s not that Hideo Kojima got drunk and started a fight with a coat rack, though that would be awesome. First off, Metal Gear Solid, the game that is always mocked as already being a movie, is going to be made into an actual movie. The film was announced by X-Men and Spider-Man producer Avi Arad and is being made by Columbia Pictures. It is unclear at this moment how much influence Hideo Kojima will have in its development.

Black Isle Studios Re-Opens

Black Isle Studios, known best for developing the original Fallout games and Planescape: Torment, closed its doors in 2003. Now, nine years later, it seems they have decided to take another swing at the game-making business. This was discovered after a new website of theirs popped up with links to  Facebook and Twitter accounts. While official details are still unclear, it appears that Herve Caen, Interplay’s CEO, is the person responsible for this reemergence.

However, the thing I’m more interested in is whether or not they will be able to catch up with the industry. Gaming has come a long way in a decade, and trends have changed.  Do you think Black Isle can become relevant again, or will they end up offering games with a more “old school” feel while piggybacking off of their previous successes?
