Earlier this month I was contacted by one of my favourite bloggers, Michael Abbott of The Brainy Gamer, about a semi-secret project he was working on called the Gamers Confabulation. He was looking to assemble a pool of bloggers who write about video games, from which he would invite a few every week for an informal round-table discussion on his podcast. Michael described it as a “thoughtful conversation about video games in a casual, lively format aimed at adults.” The list ranged from professional games journalists to motivated enthusiasts like myself. I was thrilled to receive the invitation and hastily accepted.
The flagship episode of the Gamers Confab features Brinstar of Acid for Blood, Manveer Heir of Design Rampage and myself. In it we talk about the culture of SingStar, the big promises made by game designers and how much we love Good Old Games. Thanks again to Michael, Brinstar and Manveer, I had a blast talking with you and I hope you all enjoy listening to us.
