Let’s not focus on the bad, though. Just picture it; you’re walking down the street, ear buds in, listening to this classic podcast. The ladies love a man listening to a great episode, you know… Not saying you need any help in that department, just that they’ll notice you for sure.

Yeah, you could go across the street and get yourself a new episode, but those guys over there don’t really care about the customer. They want to get you into the most recent podcasts; more profit  margin there, you know? But I’m hear to get you into the show that’s right for you, and I’m betting that this episode will treat you right for a lot of years, and at an exceptionally reasonable price.

Need some time to think it over? That’s fine. Here’s my card, give me a call anytime. Don’t wait too long, though. There’s someone else looking pretty hard at this episode, and I’d hate for you to miss out on it.

This week on NoG, we take a look at used games. Are they good? Bad? Immoral? Does anyone care? Also, Brent only plays stupid web games.

Anyway, what did we talk about this week? Oh right, Monday Night Combat! That game is pretty sweet. If only it would come out on the PC, it would be even sweeter. Let’s see, what else… Should games be more like movies? Or less like movies? Something like that. Man, my head is killing me. Maybe I should have another drink… OH CRAP I’m out of booze. I guess now I have no choice but to contemplate the terrible choices I’ve made during my life.

Oh yeah, we had a pretty good email that got us talking this week. That was pretty cool. YAY! I just found a bottle of 151 secreted away in an old boot! Where did that boot come from, anyway? Hmm… I have some vague recollection of mugging a hobo. Probably best that I don’t remember it.

For the next couple of weeks we’ll be playing the new free Everquest II Extended thingie, so feel free to join us and let us know what you think. I gotta wrap this up, because this 151 needs a new home… IN MY BELLY. Do I have any mixers? Hmm, out of soda. I wonder if 151 and chicken stock is any good… Only one way to find out!

Oh wait, I’m supposed to type a bunch of random crap here that makes no sense and is only vaguely connected to the subject matter of the show in any rational way. Okay, here goes: Badminton cat escapes from zoo while being ridden by a banjo playing ex-prime minister of Mars!

My first answer was to just fill the blog with just “Starcraft 2″ over and over again, but that seemed too cheap. So here are some other ideas to get the nation talking.

Put your opinion on the game within a limerick!

I can’t build that ship, I must pass.
Because I can’t farm enough gas.
my gathering units
can’t seem to get to it
They’re too busy gathering up glass.

(What? Where did you THINK I was going with that?)

OOOH! Or maybe a haiku!

Our hero should match
Raynor from the RTS.
Who is this fire plug?

Maybe it should be in the form of demotivational poster!

See the graphic above

Or, you know, you could just talk about it…

Let us know what you think about Starcraft 2!

Wes Wilson

Fran: Yeah, that’s great. I guess they finally solved the existential crises that plagued their production schedule.

Frank: And how! The newest episode is sort of about Transformers: War for Cybertron, but it’s really about review scores.

Fran: I dunno, that doesn’t sound very interesting…

Frank: Oh, and they also try to not talk about Starcraft II, and they mostly fail.

Fran: Starcraft II? Lame.

Frank: What? Are you not into Starcraft?

Fran: I don’t really like video games.

Frank: Then why are we having this conversation on a video game themed podcast’s show notes?

Fran: They promised me punch and pie.

Frank: They lied.

Fran: Those bastards! I will not rest until they have given me punch and pie, or perished!

Frank: Woah. You’re intense.

Metacritic, as twisted as its results might be, offers a similar service to the uninformed. Whenever I’m stocking my Amazon wish list with games, I’ll sometimes go there to see if there is some gem I missed. I will often rank a platform’s top results to ensure I’ve at least pondered playing the best of each category. They get a lot of flack for what ends up as their final score, but there’s a reason that number was feature prominently in the Steam Store for so long. Large collections of reviewers do provide a much more honest opportunity at an objective rating… Science says so!

But if you seek a complex understanding of a game’s worth, you’ll do yourself a great disservice to only pay attention to just the final number. You really learn the most when you create an array of potential review criteria. You can skim over the the bullet reviews and look for similar complaints. Reviewers can arbitrarily rate a game poorly because of playability, GUI, theme, or planet in retrograde, so a collection of identical reactions will let you know you are likely to encounter the same issues. Look to see if credible review sources universally praised or universally hated a particular game. If IGN, Game Informer, and a host of other A-list sources find a particular product repugnant, you’re far more likely to hate it. By considering more than one axis of quality, you end up with a more elaborate understanding of what is good or bad about a given game.

Considering how much thought I put into shopping for my entertainment, I was surprised at how confused I was left by the reviews of Transformers: War for Cybertron. With remarkably different gripes, from theme to playability, the bullet reviews were conflicted. The traditional players were split as well, with IGN and 1up scoring high while Giant Bomb and Gamespot hitting the low end. Lastly, the Critic Score was dramatically different from the User Score, with the Users giving it a 9, while the critics gave it a 77. I found little to no way for anyone to actually glean solid information for this game… and that left me confused.

And to be honest, I think the game is a helluva lotta fun.

To rationalize all this, I’m left with the concept that maybe the critics were unable to escape the gravity of their status as reviewer. Maybe they were unable to suspend their disbelief and step into the world that Transformers offered. Maybe the fact that they were trying to break the game into manageable discussion topics actually fractured the “wholeness” required for a good gameplay experience. But why this game? What is a clear trait of this game that makes it seem to ground some and not others? And more generally, is there something “critic-y” that must be overcome for particular games that is not present for the enjoyment of games in general?

All I know is that for cases like this, I need a more hands-on analysis. And in this case, I’m glad I got it.

Alien Swarm began as a four-player co-op Unreal Tournament 2004 mod. The group that created the mod announced a Source-based sequel, Alien Swarm: Infested, but it got delayed when they were hired by Valve and promptly put to work. Now that most of their work is done on Left 4 Dead 2 and Portal 2, the group returned to their pet project and released the new Alien Swarm for consumption. The top-down, Diablo-esque shooter has no pay component, and even features an SDK that allows development without the purchase of any other Valve elements. By all appearances, there are no plans to charge for anything associated with this product. So the first question many might ask is, “Why did Valve opt to just give this away?”

The fact that Valve has chosen not to monetize this release may signify either a sincere desire to feed the gamer soul or a strategic ploy to further solidify Steam as the premium content delivery system. If it’s the former, then all the Valve fanboys are justified in their praises of our PC gaming overlords. Their efforts to improve the Team Fortress 2 experience through class updates were an ongoing opus to their benevolence. But unlike Alien Swarm, it was still padding their pocketbooks via new TF2 sales.

On the other hand, we might be seeing a really clever and diabolical plot to promote Steam as a content source. As “Free Game!” gets tweeted around the interwebs, we might see a noticeable increase in active Steam accounts. Those unversed in the joys of social PC gaming might find a co-op experience the ideal way to be indoctrinated into the Valve cult. And we all know that the best first hits are free.

But with the advent of Battle.net functionality, increased Impulse interest, and really good Direct2Drive sales, we may eventually find Valve cutting their margins in order to compete in an expanded market. Should this happen, the financial benefits of free games will diminish. Releases like Alien Swarm may face extinction in a highly competitive market. Do you think Valve will be able to offer totally non-monetized products in that kind of world? I can surely hope so… because my jaded business sense has a really hard time imagining that this whole production is offered solely to nourish my soul.

NOTE: NoG will be discussing the Engie update and Alien Swarm in this week’s episode. Be sure to get in some game time this week so you can add to the discussion!

PHEW! I’m tired just typing all that. The show this week has WAY too much stuff to talk about, so of course the four hosts choked halfway through and started talking about Wes’ third nipple instead. Also, this episode featured Spencer recording instead of the usual deal, so blame him when the quality sucks.

Still with me? Good. I am done with spoilers. I don’t mean that I no longer want people to spoil things for me, I mean that I’m done with spoilers as a concept. I’m increasingly convinced that fear of spoilers is a roadblock to meaningful discussion, especially when we’re talking about games and gaming. It’s also my firm belief that fear of spoilers has increasingly given writers permission to tell the same hackneyed stories again and again.

On a recent episode of Nation of Gamers, a promising discussion about Heavy Rain started, and then was immediately put down due to the fact that it might cause a spoiler. The idea was then floated that we’d do something similar to what they do on the Gamers With Jobs Conference Call, and have a discussion later that would be released under a spoiler alert headline. This is frustrating for me as a commentator on a number of levels; primarily, I don’t see it as my job to prevent spoilers from reaching your ears. Rather, it’s my job to do the best I can in providing entertaining discussion about games. If you don’t want to have a game spoiled and we start talking about said game, the burden is with you to overcome your morbid curiosity and stop listening, not with me to stop talking about it. Maybe you should come back after you’ve finished the game? The show will still be there.

Excessive spoiler awareness isn’t fair to the people that have finished a game and want to have that discussion, and self censoring to prevent spoilers makes our show less interesting. Will we ever go back and talk about Heavy Rain? Maybe, maybe not. Even if we do, it won’t be as fresh in our minds as it would had we talked about it shortly after we completed it. There will be points forgotten, and the entire conversation will take on the tone of, “Oh yeah! I remember that!” I’m all for pleasant reminiscing, but it is no substitute for substantive discussion.

Quick! Which was better, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, or Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2? The vast majority of you would say the that the first game was superior, and not only because of the public relations missteps of publisher Activision. One of the major problems with the second game was that it relied on the same plot devices as the first. Like, exactly the same devices. The shock of dying as one of the main characters in MW was substantially greater than when the same occurred in MW2, and all the spoiler police in the world wouldn’t have made it any better. If instead of cheap shocks Infinity Ward had developed a compelling plot that made any logical sense, our collective reaction would have been much different.

However, it’s the current zeitgeist among entertainment makers to rely heavily on the, “You won’t believe what happens next!” model of storytelling, and we’re letting them get away with it. The nanny culture surrounding media only reinforces the notion that we don’t care about engaging stories, interesting characters, or good gameplay. It tells writers and producers everywhere that we’ll accept bland storytelling if only they string us along at the right pace.

I’m not against surprising twists, far from it. I am against mysterious circumstances and shocking developments being a sideshow used to distract from lame storytelling. If something is great, truly great, then knowing how it ends won’t “spoil” anything. I can still play Final Fantasy IV and thoroughly enjoy it, even knowing as I do that Golbez is Cecil’s brother. I know that Joker is going to turn himself into a monster at the end of Batman: Arkham Asylum and the game is still a ton of fun. And for my money, knowing from the beginning of Heavy Rain that Scott is the Origami Killer would have made for a more interesting game. Conversely, knowing that Alistair was going to die wouldn’t have made Tomb Raider: Underworld’s story any less dumb.

This doesn’t mean I’m going to go out of my way to ruin things for people. However, the next time someone freaks out when I start talking about something that they haven’t experienced, I’m going to ask them to remove themselves from the conversation rather than censor myself.

So, what do you think? Would you rather we leave your ears pristine, clean of any spoilers? Or would you prefer a more substantive discussion, even knowing that some surprises may be lost?

Suddenly, Brent’s iPhone rings. He snatches it up and quickly leaves the studio with barely a word. Wes and Spencer are left, mouths agape, unable to comprehend the terrible circumstances that have befallen them.

Struggling to keep things going, Wes weakly suggests, “Battletoads was a pretty good game.”

“No,” Spencer answers, “no it wasn’t.”

You can hear all that on this show. What you can’t hear is the conversation that was so important that Brent had to leave the studio.  After all, he left the studio, so the microphones couldn’t pick him up. However, you can read a transcript of that strange conversation. Brent did not know that his call was being routed through an experimental Google Voice transcription engine. The result was donated by an anonymous source to this reporter. Only Brent’s side of the conversation was transcribed, leaving us to wonder at the identity of the caller and the dark words he imparted.

BRENT: You’re late, I told you not to call during the show. *pause* No, I- *pause* I know, but it’s hard to keep my cover in tact if- *pause* Right. Well, if you’re done with that, can we get on with it? *pause* It was- it was a rhetorical question. *pause* Look, I don’t like this anymore than you do, but if we’re going to make it out of this alive we have to work together. *pause* All right, that’s what I like to hear! Now all we have to do is- *pause* What do you mean? What’s wrong? *long pause* Damn it! I should’ve known better that to trust you, even with something so ridiculously easy. All you had to do was go to the pet store- *pause* What do you mean, which pet store? Does it matter? The one that has feeder guppies, you idiot! *pause* No, the guppies are the key. This’ll never work without guppies. *pause* What are we gonna do with four hundred brine shrimp? Go back, get the damn guppies, and meet me at the drop point after World of WoW. *pause* Yeah, it just might work after all, and then we can finally get Jimmy the Legs off our case. *pause* Yeah, me too. I’ll see you later… Mr. President. *pause* No, I know you’re not the pres- *pause* Look, I was just kidding. *pause* Okay, you know what? Click. *click*

And that’s all the information we have. In order to help us to unravel this terrifying mystery, we are offering a $5000 reward for information leading to the arrest of “Jimmy the Legs,” along with a $10,000 for information pertaining to the identity of the other party to this call.

Oh yeah, and there’s a show this week. Or was it last week? I am totally confused. I think it’s about space rats. Enjoy!

It wasn’t until my eyeballs exploded that I realized I was out of hair gel. Frothing with impotent rage, I turned my frustrations into the drive to finally win at Wimbledon. Lacking in celebratory crystal meth, I was forced to watch Season 4, Episode 7 of The Wire instead. Proposition Joe is awesome.

Finally I collapsed, blood leaking from my punctured kitten. “Well,” I shouted into the unfathomable void, “at least now I can finally paint  over that dreadful mural.” I woke with a start, realizing it had all been a horrifying coutroom drama starring the University of Notre Dame men’s basketball team.

I think I may have gotten a little off track here. Just like this week’s show! What exactly happened, anyhow? At any rate, join Wes, Spencer, Brent, and Eric as they explore… something. I’m not really sure what’s going on.

“Grandpa!” she shouted.

“Well, hello, little Karen,” Grandpa said as he hobbled away from the car. “How is my favorite granddaughter on her sixth birthday?” In his wizened claws he clutched an inexpertly wrapped present, roughly the size and shape of a video game. Karen’s eyes nearly fell out of her head. She loved video games! Unable to contain her excitement, she darted forward and snatched the package from Grandpa’s grasp and ran at full speed back into the house.

By the time Grandpa stumbled wheezing into the house, Karen had torn the wrapping off of her gift. Her earlier excitement was strangely absent as she stared at the game in her hands. The color drained from her face, a look of dawning horror overtaking her. “Well,” grandpa asked after an uncomfortable moment of silence, “do you like it?”

Karen stood stock still, unable to tear her eyes from the wretched thing in her hands. Suddenly she jerked as if stung and tossed the thing on floor. She wiped her hands on her blouse, desperately trying to clean away some unseen filth. Without a word, she ran to the kitchen. Grandpa was appalled into silence, unable to comprehend the depths to which he’d offended his precious granddaughter.

She returned with a can of lighter fluid and sprayed the game down liberally. Grandpa moved to stop her, but something in her eyes held him at bay. Her eyes spoke of great betrayal, of great pain, of the end of her short childhood. Tossing the now empty container to the side, Karen stared at her Grandfather with contempt as she lit a match. “This is the only way the house will ever be clean again, Grandpa,” she said as it dropped to the floor, touching off a horrific conflagration.

The firemen managed to get everyone out of the house, but Grandpa felt little relief. He sat on a gurney, a blanket wrapped around his shoulders, staring at the house going down in flames, a great sense of guilt and despair settling upon him. A fireman walked up and without delay asked, “What happened here?”

The fire reflected in Grandpa’s sad eyes. “I gave her Pokeman: Heart Gold.” He shook his head. “That girl hates Pokeman.”

Wow, I went a really long way for that joke, didn’t I? Anyway, join Eric, Spencer, and Brent as they explore their bottom five games, pulling in plenty of the Nation’s least favorite games to discuss as well! By the way, wasn’t there another guy on this show? What happened to him, anyway?

Oh, people do go on about their favorite games, but how many talk about their least favorite? How many talk about the games that they couldn’t stand, but for some reason kept playing anyhow? That’s what we’re going to talk about this week.

It’s not enough just to give a list of your least favorite games, though. A reason would be nice. What made the experience so revolting? Did the games pixels stab you in the eye? Did you finally reach the end boss, only to have him be completely unkillable? Did you spend $40 dollars in one sitting at the arcade only to discover that at the end, the game started out? Remember, the list isn’t worth much unless there’s a story to go along with it.

Don’t feel contained to five, though. If you only can think of three, hit us with what you’ve got. Do you hat twelve games? We want to hear about them. Probably twelve is too many and we’ll ignore your post on the air due to a lack of energy to thumb through your novel-length complain-a-thon, but go ahead and write it up anyhow!

And yes, that’s a picture of Link on top a post called “Bottom 5.” I leave deciding why it’s there to you.

“Now hold on,” I hear you say, “I love Eric, Brent, Spencer, and Wes, but how much is this going to cost me?” I’m glad you asked! Downloading the show will remain free, as always, and you’re free to listen to the first ten minutes on our dime. That’s right! We’re so confident about the quality of our product that we’re willing to pay for you to listen! After the first ten minutes it’s just ninety-nine cents a minute to continue! Not happy with the show? We’re sorry to see you go, but you’re free to cancel at any time.*

This week, take advantage of our special introductory offer and get Episode 12 of NoG absolutely free! Wes isn’t here, so we decided to cut everyone a break. The other three hosts reminisce about micropayments and DLC. Is it good? Bad? Ugly? I sure hope it’s good, because we’ve got a distribution line to support from here on out.

*You cannot actually cancel at any time. By downloading NoG, you agree to pay for shows for two years. Every time you download another show, your contract is renewed. NoG does not guarantee the availability of episodes in your language of choice.

• [GAME] Sleep is Death
• [GAME] We Rule
• Episode graphic by jfphotography

There’s not a lot to be said about micropayments that hasn’t been said before, both loudly and in an irate tone of voice. For some, micropayments are the herald of a new way to nickel and dime gamers. For others, they give gamers the opportunity to get more game than they otherwise might. Both of these can be true; it’s a matter of an individual gamer’s perspective as to which he or she focuses.

For the purposes of our argument, let’s break games with micropayments into three categories:

• Full priced games that sell small bits of content to expand the existing product
• Low priced games that sell a small initial bit of content and expand upon it with additional content for a price
• Free games that are supported by selling content or in game advantages

Each of these three types make the case for microtransactions in a different way, and each presents different value to different gamers. Some that would spend $10 on a new character for Mass Effect 2 wouldn’t even download a free copy of Dungeons and Dragons Online, let alone buy a potion that would increase experience gain.

It’s still a very new concept, so the questions of value versus price haven’t yet been answered. Companies are struggle to answer why $2.50 is too much for horse armor, but $2.00 is reasonable for a Red-Riding Hood Costume. Meanwhile, gamers are forced to look at each piece of DLC individually and ask themselves, “Is this worth it?”

So what do you think? Do you regularly (or irregularly) make micro-purchases? Do you feel that they’re positive or negative? Are there some circumstances in which you’d make a microtransaction, but another when you wouldn’t? Why or why not?

Spencer Williams

I paced and I fretted
I hummed and I hawed,
Without a good prank
They’d all know me a fraud.

And then with a start
I knew that I had it,
The finest tomfoolery
That would prove my wit!

I bounded to my computer
Not a second to spare!
I loaded up Photoshop
And began to prepare.

Here a transform,
There a new layer,
“This should be great!”
I exclaimed with a prayer.

At last it was finished,
A gag I could not surpass.
An L-block from Tetris
Riding behind an ass.

Why is it funny?
I don’t claim to know.
Just wait ’til next year…
That’ll be a show.

Brent’s not here this week, and that’s no joke. Seriously, stop laughing, it’s not funny! I’m not kidding around! If you keep giggling, I’m going to stop writing this post! Okay, that’s better. Even without Brent, the other three hosts soldier on to talk about April Fool’s Day and gaming with a special guest host; Nivekeryas! Now if only they could stop talking about Eric’s new iPad…

It’s not just people telling each other lies, however. Corporations get in on the act as well, making the first of April the absolute worst day to try to find gaming news. Add in the impending release of the iPad, and the only stories to be found are either Apple related or dirty, dirty lies. Occasionally the two even overlap. As an example, I present to you the iCade. Kotaku has a pretty good list of today’s tomfoolery here.

So what’s your opinion of game companies trying to be cute on April 1? Do you appreciate the effort, or are you annoyed beyond all reason? What are some of your favorite or least favorite April Fool’s related pranks?

“Eh?”

“I said, MAX, ARE YOU AWAKE?”

“Oh fer cryin’ out loud woman, I’m old and hard a’ hearing, but I ain’t deaf!”

“Do you remember when we were twenty-five…”

“I can’t even remember what I had fer breakfast this morning.”

“You had cyber-oats.”

“Ding dang ol’ cyber-oats. Whatsamatter with oatmeal? Kids these days too good for oatmeal?”

“You remember when we were twenty-five, there was this game we used to play. What was it called?”

“Eh, you gotta give me more than that, Helen.”

“You know, you were a little guy, and you ran around…”

“Oh yeah… what was that called again?”

“There were bad guys, and you killed them.”

“I remember the one. You had a sword…”

“More than one, dear.”

“Yeah, but there was this one… I think the game was named after it. Why do you want to know, anyway?”

“Well, it’s our ninety-third wedding anniversary this Thursday, and I thought we might play it again, for old time’s sake.”

“I never liked that game.”

“I know, but what was it called?”

This week, Brent, Wes, Eric and Spencer Explore some of little games in life. At least, that’s what they try to do, before the ravages of old age catch up with them and wipe their memories clean. What happens when gamers get old? If they forget the Konami code, do they run out of infinite lives? Listen in for a lot of GREAT game suggestions from the Nation!

Little games are largely ignored by the gaming press. Sure, there are sites that cover them; Rock, Paper, Shotgun has a particularly good record of covering little games, and even Kotaku throws an indie title a bone now and again, but by and large the press is focused on the big games. Partly that’s because of access. Big publishers have established relationships with media outlets, making it far easier for them to get exposure. Partly it’s resources. Small developers don’t have the time and money that the big guys do, let alone dedicated PR teams. Whatever the reason, the end result is that on a site like Kotaku we get an article saying that there’s a countdown clock on the Mass Effect 2 website – essentially an announcement that there will be an announcement – but the existence of a truly fun little dungeon crawler, Desktop Dungeon (pictured above) gets no mention at all. I’m not really trying to rag on Kotaku here; they are what they are. Rather, what I’m trying to say is that these games deserve more exposure, and that’s something we can do at NoG.

The great thing about little games is that they can try new things. They can evolve unpopular formulas. They can push the envelope in ways that the big games can’t. That’s not to say that all little games are good, far from it. The ratio of good games to crap is probably about the same for little games as for big games, but since there are so many little games, that still adds up to a lot of good gaming to be explored.

So let’s have it; what are your favorite little games? What do you play on the sly while at work or school? What’s the one little game that you want to share with the world, that simply not enough people have heard about? This week, the hosts will share our favorite little games, and we hope to have a lot of yours to share as well!

Okay, maybe I’m overstating things. Still, you can’t deny that DRM, newspeak for copy protection, is a contentious issue. Nearly everyone sits squarely on one side of the issue; either you believe that DRM is the sacred right of every game publisher who are only looking to protect their properties, or you believe that DRM is an ineffective inconvenience that only punishes paying customers and does nothing to quell piracy.

There have been a lot of requests for NoG to cover the DRM debate, but it doesn’t feel like there’s a lot of new ground to cover. The debate hasn’t moved in the last twenty years; the arguments for and against Ubisoft’s new restrictive DRM system are essentially the same as the arguments for and against code wheels in the 80s. What new could we bring to the argument?

So instead of the typical point/counterpoint discussions that have typified NoG so far, this week we’re trying something different. The four of us are going to lay out our ideal DRM solution, and you’re invited to submit yours! It can be serious, it can be wacky, or it can be anything in between. Who knows? Maybe between us, we can come up with the perfect DRM!

But is it really only a game? Speaking for myself, gaming has helped me through a lot of difficult times in my life. Without being too specific, around twenty years ago I’d lost my father and thought I was going to lose my mother. One of the ways I coped was by playing Final Fantasy IV. Playing the game helped me forget the bad things happening to me, and I really do think I came out better for it. To this day FFIV is my favorite of the series, not because it has the greatest story or game play, but because of what it represents. It feels like a warm blanket. It helps me to feel comfortable and secure, and never fails to calm me down.

For many people they are just games. But for others, you can’t divorce the experience of a game from the greater context of the life in which it is played. Just as in any hobby, the meaning of an experience is limited only by how much one vests into it. Gaming can mean as much or as little to a person as that person desires.

There are many ways in which games can effect our lives, and I’d like to highlight two extremes. On the one hand, there is an article On Hot Blooded Gaming, Kreyg wrote Video Games: My Guardian Angel. I encourage you to read the whole article, but here’s an excerpt:

School wasn’t the only place where things were rough for me, life at home wasn’t exactly peaches and cream. You could say that my parents didn’t have the perfect marriage. There are too many times I can recall my parents having intense fights and screaming contests. Unlike the kids from school, I could immediately escape the madness going on. Most of the time I would close the door to my room and turn up the game volume. When I was playing whatever game it was, I felt like I wasn’t a part of the war going on outside. Video games were my safe zone when the fighting broke out. I didn’t exactly know what was going on, but as a kid, I was scared of all the yelling and knew it wasn’t good. I just wanted it to go away, and playing video games helped make that happen for me. My parents eventually got divorced when I got to middle school. It was a rough time, but I knew I could pop on a game and forget about my troubles for the time being – and I did just that.

Kreyg’s story is one I think a lot of us can relate to, and hopefully he’ll be joining us for an interview on the next Nation of Gamers.

On the other side of the coin is this video by CirrusEpix and posted at ScrewAttack.com.

Obviously I disagree wholeheartedly with the sentiment in this video, but it still illustrates that, for good or ill, games can have a profound impact on our lives.

What do you think? Are games important to you beyond the enjoyment they provide? Have you had a bad experience made better by gaming, or a good experience that turned bad? Do you feel that games help or hinder your development as a person? How has gaming effected your life?

As always, feel free to comment here or take it to the forums for more in depth discussion!

Well, it happened again. For financial reasons, I’m forced to once again choose between my two greatest needs; either I can buy Final Fantasy XIII or I can pay rent. Why does this always happen to me? Maybe it’s because I only make $200 a week fetching snacks for George Broussard, but hey, at least I’m working in the industry. Maybe I shouldn’t spend all $200 a week on games and gaming accoutrement, but come on, how am I supposed to not buy games? That $100 super collector’s version of God of War III isn’t going to buy itself, you know! I have to buy it. WITH REAL MONEY. I guess I’ll go sell plasma again. That’s got to be worth at least the cost of a strategy guide! I’d try prostitution, but that didn’t work out so well last time. Oh, that reminds me, I TOTALLY got Trisha’s number! Now I just have to buy a phone and then I can call her!

Eric is mysteriously absent this week. Perhaps he was abducted by dingos? I hear that’s happening a lot these days. At any rate, the other three “hosts” yak it up about the cost of gaming. Did you know that Spencer spent approximately 6.2 million dollars on games last year?

They don’t trust that their audience can discover how to have fun with a game on their own, and as a result mainstream games have lost an entire dimension of challenge.

Half-Life 2 is a good example of this, but let’s first refresh our memories of Half-Life. One of the mini-boss enemies is the Apache helicopter, an armored flying machine that’s mostly impervious to small arms fire. The easiest way to deal with it is to shoot it with rockets until it explodes; in fact, your first encounter with one is immediately after you pick up the RPG in a cliff side crag. But you aren’t handcuffed to your rockets. Its rotor and engines are actually vulnerable to pistol fire, if you are brave enough to stare it down. You could even try to air burst it with a few well-timed hand grenades. Contrast that to its HL2 analogue, the gunship. It’s only vulnerable to rockets, and there’s a convenient infinite rocket crate near every single gunship battle in the game. There is a certain technique to aiming your rockets so they can’t be shot down, but otherwise that’s all there is to fighting a gunship: shoot x3, restock at crate, repeat. Same goes for the Strider: the only interesting part about fighting one is the mad dash to the win button—erm, ammo crate, that is. (Final Citadel Strider battle excluded, that one was different and fun.)

As I said in my opening, modern games have lost a dimension of challenge. The dimension that HL2 lost is the balance of resource management, i.e. spending your rockets/cells/summonable ninja squirrels now or saving them for the next big boss battle. If there will be an infinite ninja squirrel token crate next to the mini-boss who’s only vulnerable to ninja squirrels, why even bother conserving your most potent ammo? Other games may have lost different dimensions of challenge, be it self-preservation, or directional awareness, or what have you.

That’s just one example of how modern games hold the player’s hand way too much. If you listen to the developer commentary in HL2 Episode 1 and the Orange Box, you’ll discover that they tweaked their maps to accommodate players who couldn’t or wouldn’t pay attention to their environment. This boiled down to looking up, or deducing that they were endlessly walking in a circle for 10 minutes. Around the turn of the century, video gaming got some much needed good publicity when studies reported that games helped hone spatial awareness and coordination. Can we seriously expect games to keep honing our real-life skills when developers are doing their best to remove the need to use them? Looking up is not “hard mode” for Pete’s sake! Doom 3 might have been repetitive and even a little predictable in the way its monsters popped out of every other wall, but at least it taught its players the valuable lesson: “Just because you’re looking forward doesn’t mean the monsters will conveniently appear at eye level.”

In a way, I think a lot of mainstream game development is being held hostage by the notion that games have to be art. Roger Ebert got gamers’ panties in a twist when he said that games cannot be art, and the industry started trying their darndest to prove him wrong, often at the cost of game play. I think a lot of games were designed to be “experienced” rather than “beaten,” which is to say their primary focus is just to entertain the player for 6-8 hours, rather than present challenges that the player derives pleasure from overcoming. That brings us back to my favorite quote in the world: “It’s fun to have fun, but you have to know how.” Modern games, I contend, are not designed for gamers who can walk up to a challenge and have fun conquering it; they are designed for a mainstream audience, not gamers per se, who (the developers believe) can’t have fun on their own. Well, maybe they’ll never even learn how, if developers keep it up.

The perfect hardcore game, in my opinion, is a sandbox with a goal in the middle. It’s also hard; not Nintendo-hard, but it’s a challenge that may require multiple attempts or a lot of problem solving. The worst possible game is a straight, narrow, corridor of game play, with the goal at the end, and which is consumed and subsequently discarded in 2-3 hours. STALKER and System Shock 2 stand defiantly close to the “sandbox” ideal, brutally slaying newbies yet gradually rewarding them as they master various skills; and I have a hunch that HL2:E3 and HL3 are wavering somewhere in the middle, not yet sure in which direction to fall. Modern mainstream games are not necessarily bad, but they are inching further and further toward the “narrow corridor,” as developers try to handhold players for the best “experience” rather than the best game.

Jim: I know, right? This is the first I’m hearing about it, too! I hear it plays games.

Jen: Really? I like games. After hearing last week’s discussion on NoG, I’ve decided I’m a gamer. Are those games any good?

Jim: I don’t know! Let’s listen to the new NoG and find out!

Jen: Boy howdy!

There was the first proud moment when my son asked to play my DS, and later when my daughter asked to play “Pweggle” on my iPhone. It was scary the first time; she had the tendency to throw things when upset, and the idea of seeing my iPhone fly across the room was a bit horrifying. Nonetheless, she wanted to play a game, and as a good father I feel I must foster the same love I have for games in my children.

Watching them play these games has changed my opinion on games as a whole. Games have become teaching tools, and it’s hard to limit the use of them when I see how much they help my kids. For example, my son is being tested for the gifted reading class in second grade. I fully believe his love of reading came about from the need to understand the gibberish on the screen telling him how to play games. Now that gibberish is just more words in his vocabulary.

My daughter is learning in the same manner. She has developed coordination that is unbelievable for age, and in addition I believe she is learning troubleshooting skills based on how well she plays the Legos brand games. She’s better than me at them now. It’s can be scary.

Those are just a couple examples of the things I’ve witnessed my kids learning, and I’m sure there are many more examples. For instance, there is an article about a school using video games as a teaching tool over at Popsci.

So this leads us to a few questions:

• When is it okay for kids to start gaming?
• How much should they be allowed to game?
• What are the pros and cons of children gaming?

A new general gaming show on the Dead Workers Party Network. Hosted by Brent Copeland, Wes Wilson, Eric Fullerton and Spencer Williams.

Let’s get the pat definition out of the way.

gam·er
n.
One who plays a game.

While technically true, that definition ignores the subtleties in the word. It’s still a useful starting point; I think we can all agree that a gamer necessarily plays a game. Beyond that is where things start getting fuzzy.

Amongst the gaming community, gamer is used as an exclusionary term denoting pride and a sense of belonging. When one gamer represents him or herself to another as being a gamer, the term connotes a set of specific criteria. Usually, the game type in question is assumed. Someone self-identifying as a gamer at a LAN party would be assumed to be a video gamer, while the same self-identification in a board game shop would be interpreted differently. Beyond that basic information, the term gamer gives some insight into a person’s identity. By describing oneself as a gamer, one tells others that gaming is a significant part of his or her life.

That’s how we come to the exclusionary bit. My sister is not a gamer. That doesn’t mean that she never plays games; she’s actually quite  taken with Diner Dash, and I’ve roped her into a game of Settlers of Catan now and then. It means that gaming is not a significant part of her character. Not only would she not describe herself as a gamer, but even someone who saw her play games would be hard pressed to do so. Especially when contrasted with me, a self described gamer, it becomes abundantly clear she is not a part of the gamer clique.

Here is where the trouble starts. Whenever a group forms, members start to codify what being part of that group entails. Whether the group forms around a religion, an ideal or an activity, eventually someone will try to say that another person can’t be a part of the group because they’ve transgressed some unwritten rule.

I know I’m being overly vague. Let’s get specific; Right this very second, someone on the Intertubes is accusing another person of not being a real gamer. Gasp! The horror! Maybe the offending person admitted to pirating games. Maybe they said that they don’t like Valve, no matter what all the fanboys say. Maybe they even said something unforgiveable, like… “Bobby Kotick isn’t such a bad guy after all!” Another gasp!

Every gamer has a different set of criteria used to define what the term means. Many go far beyond the basic definition, incorporating a set of values, deference or antagonism to certain brands, genre tastes, and on and on. Often, arguments arise when people use the same word but assume different definitions for said word, and the purely subjective nature of gamer is a prime example of that. Most people assume they know what a gamer is, while the person they’re talking with may think it’s something vastly different.

So, let’s get to questioning those assumptions! What’s your definition for the word gamer? Do you have any criteria that you consider when deciding whether another person is a gamer? Do you think an objective definition would be possible? What would that definition be?

Feel free to comment here, or take it to the forums for more in depth conversation!

Part of that will be this blog. Once or twice a week, there will be a post here designed to get the discussion started. We’ll talk about individual games, but we’ll also discuss wider issues in our hobby. From the business of making games to how games affect your life, we’ll discuss it all.

Keeping with the community spirit, eventually we’ll want blog posts from you. Have a topic that you’d like to discuss in detail? This is the place to get things started. Start thinking about it now, because we’ll have some submission guidelines in place soon.

As always, let us know what you think! Have an idea for the blog or the show? Feel free to share! NoG is your show just as much as its ours, so make yourself at home!
