Could the Xbox 720 (or whatever Microsoft’s next game console ends up being called) take steps to kill off the market for used gaming? We discuss the possibility on this week’s Game|Life podcast.
But first, Wired magazine senior editors Chris Baker and Peter Rubin and Game|Life’s me opine, from a position of near-perfect ignorance, on the lack of a 2012 BlizzCon show. Wired.com managing editor Marty Cortinas, former editor of World of Warcraft magazine, probably knows a great deal more about this but he was out sick when we recorded this week’s show.
Additionally, Baker takes the “Whatcha been playing?” segment and really runs with it this week, going off about a new indie game called Q: Compressing the Heart , a Choose Your Own Adventure book called Inside UFO 54-40 and adult-themed Minecraft fanfic (note: do not actually read those stories unless you want to be horrified).
Game|Life’s podcast is posted every Friday, appearing on iTunes and embedded below. You can also download it directly.
