The Platformer Podcast – episode 14

by Warren Frey

Sad, sad news today as Steve Jobs lost his battle with cancer. To call the man an artist, a businessman or a technologist is to sell him short…he was, without a doubt, a titan. His products, from the Apple II to the Mac to the iPad, iPhone and everything else affected all three of your hosts across much of their lives, and changed both our tools and our culture in ways that have yet to see their full measure. Our conversation can’t hope to do justice to the man’s accomplishments, but we hope to add our thoughts to a swelling tide of grief. The world has lost a great man, and we are all the poorer for it.

The Fruitygamer Podcast! – episode 36

by Warren Frey

Even though we’re nominally a gaming podcast, the disastrous release of Final Cut Pro X deserved some attention…and Chip managed to wrangle things back to gaming with a comparison between the FCP X launch and Star Wars: Galaxies debacle of many moons ago. Also, Marathon is coming to iOS, the iPhone 5 is apparently Apple’s first step to world gaming domination, and the United States Supreme Court has just ruled games are a form of expression and thus subject to free speech protection. Heady stuff. Enjoy!

Technical difficulties nearly felled the podcast this week, but your favourite Mac gaming nerds soldiered on, discussing the new iPad, the potential of Airplay to usurp the console space, why the Sony NGP is “dead on arrival,” and why the iPad might be the best gaming system ever. At least according to one developer at GDC.
