Another interesting question that I've heard on the net that might be good to address:

The GOW update added in extra achievements, some of which are based on the DLC levels. But what about users in countries that the DLC is not available in (like Germany)? There's potentially 250points of achievements they'll never get.

Food for thought.

Personally I like a longer shows, that way I can break the show up into 2 halfs - part one on the way to work and part 2 on the way home.

The best was your #200 show, that killed nearly all the time on the way to disneyland paris :)

Shadowrun Question: Are they going to fix the problem with the katana where the user can slash without being within slashing distance of the victim?

@Cutriss: You've got the answer "why" for #5 in latest podcast - it wouldn't pay off.

Major, I know you're a sopranos fan. I was a bit disappointed with the last episode

**spoiler alert**

How did you take the last scene? Do you take it as Tony got shot, or do you take it as more of a "life goes on even though we're not watching" sort of thing? It seemed rather ominous when it took Meadow five minutes to park, and there was a definite suspenseful atmosphere portrayed in the last few minutes of the show, but the viewer was given no direct answers as to why. Frankly I felt like I needed a little more closure than I got. Your thoughts?

Major, a good rule of thumb for podcasting is to keep it under 74 minutes - the length of a cd. Many people will burn a podcast to cd, and begin listening to it on the way to work, and finish on the ride home. Just some food for thought.

Another Shadowrun question:

Can they please please please please please add a ranking system and leaderboards? We know they have a 'trueskill' system but a lot of players, including myself, feel that a VIEWABLE ranking system is the only thing holding this title back. I have a few friends who wanted to buy the game but settled for a rental once they find out there was no official ranking.

Your response to #5 doesn't count. He mentions why content may never go live in certain countries, but this is 1st party content - Microsoft calls the shots there.

And no, I don't believe his response on #3. Not at all. For one thing, the argument about "collecting payments for all the organizations" doesn't hold water, especially when cast in the light of the recent lockdown on the video marketplace. For another thing, each of the DLC packs up right now includes in-house content, which means that the pricing of the licensed content would be cast as even MORE expensive than it already is. I have very serious doubts that Activision would have willingly negotiated an agreement with the RIAA, ASCAP, etc that would drive up the costs of the same material three-fold or worse.

Microsoft doesn't set the price for #4, but you damn well better believe they have influence in it. They get a cut, for one thing, and for another thing, if XBLM is full of overpriced candy crap, it makes the whole experience less savory, so they have a vested interest in keeping it in good shape.

But hey, thanks for playing.
