HTP #083 - Kieren McCarthy Hungry Trilobyte Podcast
-
- TV & Film
Kieren McCarthy is a journalist on staff at The Register, and was one of the few writers to voice concerns over Atari's latest console attempt. Kieren's skepticism escalated considerably when he met with the Atari team in person at GDC, and detailed his misgivings in the now-famous article 'We sent a vulture to find the relaunced Atari Box - and all he got was this lousy baseball cap'. Atari responded by claiming Kieren made up the story, despite there being a recording of the meeting.
In this episode of Hungry Trilobyte, Kieren and I discuss why critical thinking seems to be lacking when it comes to video-game-centric discussion, and areas where Atari could have actually released a better product, had they had a mind to.
