GameHounds 107: Hydrophobia Et Al

Nigel, you don’t have to put up with this shit! Every patriotic Englishman/woman would recognise your accent instantly. In this great nation of ours there are many distinct accents and dialects, and yours hails unmistakably from the small village of Blewbury (like the fruit, only spelt differently) within the shire of Oxford.

In this quaint little corner of rural England, the villagers know young Nigel well. He’s often seen skipping through the hills with his fiery red hair flowing behind him, exploring the ancient ruins of Blewbury’s iron age fort and rolling down the beautiful white slopes of the age old chalk pits.

At night Nigel frequents the Red Lion public house to indulge in consumption of his favourite ale, while engaging his fellow man in a beautiful sing song along around the fire.

Dr Horrible Comic Sounds cool!. Is it an app within itself that you can read multiple comics or just the Dr Comic?

Glad to see Hydrophobia didn’t drip through the cracks!!! – games have needed a none smoke&mirrors approach to water!. Geek-gasm! haha!

Loving the XBLA titles available in 2010.

I’m hoping the Confirm Deadpool for Marvel vs Capcom!!

The debate over can games can be considered art is going to go on for sometime. Games as a medium are still in their infancy. Every popular medium has to go through this. Comics, Films, Music, Books and in some cases even art itself. It’s a shame that some people cant see games for what is put into them. Epic story lines and characters that have enough weight to them that they have been made into books and films. Music that have their own released OST’s. Technology that has been developed for games and then used to educate and inform. There are both sides to this coin – just like any topic. But one day I know they will stand proud, side by side with the ‘Accepted’ art-forms of today.

Huhwhaa?? Hydrophobia is the fear of water. It’s a *symptom* of rabies, but it’s also a symptom of not being able to swim.

My favorite: Trixodecophobia… the fear of the number 13.

I have to agree with Tim. Opinions be damned, The “Cancer Chicken” comment is classless, even for a show that goes out of it’s way to be unfiltered and non-PC. Especially when he has not done anything to harm you or the videogame industry as a whole.

I am really tired of this debate because it is really pointless. I wish people would stop trying to overcomplicate things and stop trying to find validation from people who’s opinions ultimately don’t matter.

Movies are movies, not novels, not art. Books aren’t movies, they are books. Videogames are not movies, books, or art. They are Videogames plain in simple. I love videogames and can give two shits if some movie critic, or sportscaster, or politician thinks their art or not. Hell a lot of you would give me shit for loving NCAA Football and NBA2k and buying them every year eventhough they are videogames. You call them roster updates and say im an idiot for buying them every year. I will defend them but ultimately I can give a shit what you think. Gamers and the “journalists” who defend games them as art, are largely hypocrites who are quick to dismiss large segments of the hobby they supposedly love so much.

I work late for one show..

Sooo… what did everyone think of the Hydrophobia interview?!??!!?

The Digital Cowboys covered this topic quite succinctly in Episode 105: Can Games be Art?

Hawkes:

That was a good interview, those folks seem quite high energy and very happy to talk to a smallish podcast like Gamehounds! Only problem was technical, it got kinda wonky in parts, which I’m sure was Skype related.
