Game of the Decade... I don't do this often, but I feel like teasing a little bit for the next episode, which we just finished recording. We started at 7:00 Mountain and finished at 10:45 or so. There's roughly half an hour of New Business, and the rest of the episode is pure GotD madness. I personally found the whole discussion to be impassioned and exhilarating. It was probably the most fun I've ever had recording the show. If you like our special retrospectives on Ocarina of Time and Super Metroid, think of the GotD episode as a super-sized buffet version of that, in which we talk about a dozen or so of our favorite games ever. We managed to keep it pretty positive overall, while successfully cutting the list down to a manageable final set. You may not entirely agree with the list we came up with, but I think we made an earnest effort to go through the selection process in a fair, methodical way and gave due consideration to a very diverse field. Finally, I would highly encourage RFN listeners to make it through the entire episode before voting in the poll.
I'm really quite giddy with this whole thing and can't wait to hear the polished version. After we finished, I told the guys that I felt like I had just run a marathon -- exhausted, nearly ill, but strangely ecstatic.
