Adam discusses the past year in gaming and his feelings on the current state of the industry.
On this week's episode, former co-host of G4’s X-Play and the current president of TheoryHead, Adam Sessler, joins host Josiah Renaudin to talk about the new games media landscape. They cover modern game reviews, how we talk about games, the importance of sites like Waypoint, how X-Play was done from episode to episode, the brilliance of Horizon: Zero Dawn's design, and what Adam's up to now.
I've never been a personal fan of Adam Sessler but hearing his insights about game industry (or specifically in being a gaming journalist) is quite interesting.
It’s a spooky, scary time of the year in Brookago! So it’s a no better time
to bring back our newest minister, Adam Sessler! Adam has so many great
things going on, and we get right into to it. Between his new movie
Lumberjack Man and his excitement about the kickstarter/upcoming video
game, Friday the 13th, The Sess is everywhere! What would a show with Adam,
Kahlief, Cicero and Shareef be if there wasn’t a ridiculous amount of
hilarity? Enjoy episode 82 of the Spawn On Me Podcast!
Adam Sessler, Jeff Cannata, and Jessica Villareal sit down to discuss the latest trends and biggest news coming out of E3 2015. See what they have to say about the show’s hottest games, including Uncharted 4 and Halo 5: Guardians, as well as their thoughts on the impending arrival of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality headsets that could change the way we game forever.
I agree with his point about safety driving the industry recently, this could become a problem in the future. With games getting more expensive to make even more safety next gen is very likely, but people might get sick of the same concepts all over again at some point...and stop buying.
Sooner or later, the industry will need to reinvent itself, there's no way around it.
Damn i love his veiw, very insightful on everything. Someone whos veiws can be truted without any sort of bias =)
Sessler has always been pretty straight up for the most part. I have to agree with him this year was not the best I have seen. It had really great games, but lacked that "Oh SH!T" factor that we had in previous years. Like I said very good games just nothing really got me so excited I could not wait to get it. The games like Heavy Rain, Halo Reach, and God Of War were great don't get me wrong, but nothing to really hold my attention for long.
Gaming just got married and wants a house in the burbs. Call me when gaming has its midlife crisis, I'm dying to see what comes out of desperation.
