PlayStation Blogcast 009: Joystiq Joyride

[Commander Fury]

After last week’s <a href="http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/01/19/official-playstation-blogcast-episode-008-want-to-be-a-game-producer/">discussion</a> on video game production with SCEA Senior Producer Kyle Shubel, we wanted to shed some light on the <em>other</em> side of the digital curtain -- video game media. In this week’s five-way free-for-all, we’re joined by Joystiq’s Ludwig Kietzmann, who recently moved to San Francisco from South Africa (<a href="http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=lekker">lekker</a>!). In his new role as Editor-in-Chief of Joystiq, Ludwig now sits astride one of the biggest, most influential videogame blogs on the ‘net. In today’s episode, Ludwig gives some tips for would-be video game journalists, describes the South African gaming scene, names some of his most anticipated upcoming PlayStation titles, and even graces us with a new PSN Gem of the Week.

 

In addition to debuting the new PSN game releases for next Tuesday, January 31st (including a mysterious new demo...), we also highlight some of <em>your</em> most-anticipated 2012 games, answer a new batch of user questions, and serve up another farm-fresh user tip. Jeff, Rey and I also chat about our recent experiences at the PS Vita social clubs (now open for hands-on gameplay in eight US cities through late February) and why PlayStation fans are the best in the business. Seriously!
