  • Welcome to "a very special episode" of Constellation, Last Stand Media's conversational podcast. This week, I (Colin) am joined by a duo of guests as opposed to our traditional trio: Punching Up's Gene Park and storied game designer David Jaffe. In an unusual (though not unprecedented) move, I asked the guys not to come prepared with any topics this week. Instead, I thought we'd just chat about whatever and see where that brought us. Perhaps not surprisingly, a lack of a concrete plan led us into nearly three hours of video game talk about a wide variety of topics: Concord, Astro Bot, Drawn to Death, Jim Ryan, Mark Cerny, Naughty Dog, The Last of Us Online, Killzone, Resistance, Uncharted, God of War, PlayStation games going to Xbox, Phil Spencer, Bobby Kotick, Nintendo, Super Switch, and on and on. We hope you enjoy.

    "Where are the games" is ironically a reflection of being overwhelmed by having a lot of games to play. There's so much out there that it can feel like no game is the right one for you. Same goes all the streaming platforms as well. I've spent hours just browsing the catalog. You almost have to just click play instead of deliberating on its merits. At least that works for me.

    I personally think Sony should make a GTA style game since nobody else is making games in that space besides Rockstar and there's clearly a lot of money that can be made in that genre. They are also one of the last few big game publishers that have the budget to do it. I guess they can't deal with the controversy with the player having the ability to run over or kill random pedestrians or hookers on the street and causing all sorts of chaos in the open world.

    The reason Gene couldn’t hear Jaffe’s bad audio is because he’s using AirPods. AirPods specially downgrade audio quality in most voip calling apps because of their Bluetooth connection. So it all probably sounds the same.
    You can compare wired vs AirPods in any web calling app and hear the audio is downgraded from clear to prison phone.

    Jaffe is spot-on about how there is nothing special about Killzone aside from the Helghast' designs (which was ripped-off from Jin-roh btw). The actual gameplay just comes off as a dollar store Call of Duty campaign, but instead of silky smooth controls, everything feels clunky and awkward.

Maybe have them come back later on as ravaged zombie like characters coming back for revenge but for now give us some cool shit

    Jesus, talk about missing the wood for the trees with Xbox and gamepass (and the changing landscape of hardware in general). "COD won't sell consoles for Xbox"...Wrong, but even so they don't care! Gamepass sub (now ultimate) = Win. Sale on any platform = Win.
    Jaffe is the only one who sees how the game has changed. Colin & Gene's thinking is so old fashioned, and based on how the Pro looks so is Sony's. Xbox will 'lose' the generation, but way too many people are confusing a battle with a war

    It’s kind of weird to let Jaffe insult some of the customers like that even if they are MAGA. “All are welcome” means share your view but don’t insult ppl if it’s not necessary. This rubs me the wrong way that Colin wants a wide variety of opinions on the show but Jaffe is the only one who constantly goes out of his way to insult part of the audience. Colin lets Jaffe do all that and then says we should all treat each other with respect. Am I the only one who noticed this? Seems a little one sided.

      Jaffes logic is just out the window. He’s in the whole woke leftist obsessed over race and the gender insanity bubble that hes personally affected by, and he’s also automatically gonna hate republicans, mags etc, because he’s been told to. It is kinda odd Colin doesn’t push back more against his insanity. I think part of it is he knows jaffes out of it and he feels bad for him. He’s hinted at it multiple times.
