If you haven't called in to the Mobcast 100 dedicated line yet, pick up the phone and do it now. This is your chance to get your actual voice on the podcast!
Remember, the deadline for placing your call is 5 p.m. PST on Wednesday, April 6.
In our previous post about the super special 100th edition of the Mobcast, we said that we were going to turn the podcast over to you. We weren’t kidding. Now that we’ve collected five fine topics for the show (which you’ll find below), it’s time for you to help us create the podcast itself.
How, you ask? Easy: Pull out your cellular phone and dial 209-752-7309 — the special number we’ve set up just for this show.
Make sure you study the topics below before you do so and respond to only one topic per call. You can respond to all of the topics if you’d like, but make sure you do it in five separate calls. That will make life much easier for editor James DeRosa, who will be patching the responses together.
To recap:
1) Study the topics below.
2) Call 209-752-7309 and give a short response to one only topic per call. Be sure to tell us your name at the start of your message.
3) Download Mobcast 100 in two weeks and marvel at the sound of your own voice!
Check out the topics after the jump.
Topics:
If you could be any fictional game character, who would you be and why? -Juan Letona
Anybody getting tired of rebuying the same games you already own on Virtual Console or in "HD game remakes" instead of being provided with some backwards compatibility? Doesn't it end up being the case that pirates using emulators get to play old games conveniently, but those of us who bought them originally only get to do so once in a while, for additional charge, at the whim of these publishers? –Dana Laratta
Have you ever dreamed of video games or dreamed you were in one? What was it about? -Matt Giguere
What is the one accomplishment in gaming that you'll still brag about 10-15 years from now? -Yasin Bulhan
Why is storytelling so piss-poor in gaming? Take a real good look at the industry; now compare the element of storytelling to any other medium, be it books, movies, or television. Video-game storytelling is painfully immature. -Anders Wahl
