VG247 podcast #8 – Blizzard lore-master Chris Metzen and JAW’s Stewart Gilray

sc2gravcrash

Two great interviews for you this week. I went to Irvine recently to see StarCraft II, and was lucky enough to get some face-time with Chris Metzen, Blizzard’s lore boss. Despite being a proper rock star, the guy’s switched on beyond belief. Hear him talk story in games, WarCraft III, SCII and loads more in this week’s recording. Really don’t miss this.

Very special interview number two is Stewart Gilray from the UK’s Just Add Water. The firm’s working on Gravity Crash for PS3 and PSP at the moment, and given the recent PS3 price drop we thought talking to a first-party dev would be interesting. Turns out we were right. Who knew?

The rest of this week’s show is me, Steph and Nathan talking about PS3 Slim, the fact PS3 sales have rocketed and how long we think the upside will stay up. Some of the sound quality in there’s a little flaky: sorry about that.

Have a listen. Again, because of the two interviews, it’s quite long this week, so here are the stamps:

  • 0-16.18 – Pat, Steph and Nathan and the PS3 price cut and Slim’s introduction.
  • 16.18-30.18 – Blizzard’s Chris Metzen on StarCraft II’s plot and loads more.
  • 31.08-45.34 – Just Add Water’s Stewart Gilray on Gravity Crash.

Gravity Crash announced for PSP, coming to PSN around mid-October

gravitycrashmainimage

Just Add Water has announced that its old-school style arcade title, Gravity Crash, is to be made available on PSN sometime around mid-October, and will also be made available for PSP.

The game combines vintage arcade shooter gameplay with vector graphics and has the player piloting a small craft where mastering the flight and combat mechanics against the gravitational pull will ensure success.

Armed with an arsenal of main and special weapons, shield and a carefully watched fuel gauge, players will battle gravity and inertia through 40 different planets – each with its own environmental dangers, enemies and other obstacles.

There are loads of nice PSP screens for it posted after the break that the developers were kind enough to send our way. You should have a look.

Afterward, be sure to visit the redesigned website which has loads more information on both versions.
