Hey MMO fans! Tonight’s special guest is RIFT executive producer Scott Hartsman. Scott sits down with us for an extended interview about the new MMORPG that launches this Thursday. We cover everything from what the game is about, and details about it’s development cycle, to why it’s important to prioritize fun above everything else. So will this game be the one to pull you away from WoW? Or maybe return to an MMO at all? From PVE to PVP and raiding…if you had any lingering questions about RIFT they’re sure to be answered on this weeks Shotgun!

Hey everybody! This week we’re back in classic trifecta format with Modeps, Kragg and Gzsfrk joining us in the third slot. We answer your voicemails and then get down to the business of talking about games. Kragg and Gszfrk weigh in about Bionic Commando: Re-Armed 2, and tell you if it’s worth your time. Spoiler alert: it’s sort of not. Then Kragg and Modeps talk way too much about the hotly anticipated MMO Rift, giving you details about experiences with the closed beta. Then a little more on the RPG front with some talk about Two Worlds 2 co-op campaign with Kragg, and we round out the show with Gzsfrk’s hands-on impressions of the new You Don’t Know Jack. All this, your weekly releases, and EA Online Pass sucks, on this weeks Shotgun!
