Ask Shane Anything Questions May 2018

Hey David! If you look in any of the recent GameFace posts here on Patreon we include instructions on how to add it to your podcast feed permanently. If you follow Keith's instructions you'll be getting the show late with everyone who is not a patron. If you follow the instructions in each GameFace post you'll get an audio version the minute it's published for the first time.

Thank you Keith for that tip, I did not realise that GameFace is now a available as iTunes Podcast since I thought it was for sifted members only. Thanks for the pointer

Just saw that it is available there, thank you for the pointer Keith

Hey David. If you use iTunes you can follow the link on any episode of Game Face from the Siftd webpage and subscribe to the podcast. Like you I don’t regularly have time to watch the show, so normally listen to the podcast. And that’s how I get it downloaded. Hope this is helpful.

Hi Shane, Long time fan. Sadly I hardly have time to watch game face the last few months but I can listen to podcast when I‘m driving or flying. Would you mind posting Game face also as an audio podcast on Patreon like the EZA team is doing? I know that on the sifted website I can download just the audio but it is inconvenient. In the Patreon app you can easy download audio podcast and play them when ever you have time. Would really appreciate it. Best Regards from Bali - Indonesia

Shane, having finished watching the Toys That Made Us, and knowing Matt’s iconic toy being The Transformers, what’s your favourite toy of your childhood?

Hey Shane! What are some of you favorite memories from all of your years in the industry? They could be announcements, career-related, anything that you'd like. Also, what do you think are the most important moments of video games since you started in the industry? Revolutionary games, consoles, genres, etc, but nothing that predates your start. Keep up the awesome work!

Other than the industry people that attend, what is awesome about Pachter's E3 party? For example, would he hire a crew of Cirque Du Soleil people to show off their tricks? Flashy lights and DJ like a night club? Do people get hammered there?

Do you think we will see another bizzare Death Stranding trailer in Sony's Conference? What would be the point at that point? I think they have to show release date with it otherwise Kojima-san is just making E3 animated short-films for Sony's Conference. Seeing bizzare stuff works at first but seeing it once a year wears the shocking effect alot.

Your E3 press predictions for 1. Most uninspiring 2. Most potential to surprise 3. Most likely to make you cringe 4. Biggest improvement on last year and 5. Best press conference are? Go! Also I’ll be rating pics post E3.

What would make your dream E3? A jaw dropping game announcement e.g. “CyberPunk 2077 global release today June 11”, all the major publishers agreeing to bin loot boxes, triumphant return of lost game series, a helicopter service to take you there and back, useable toilets or anything outside or in between?

With the recent news of SIE CEO John Kodera stating that the PS4 is in the final stages of its lifecycle, I'm curious how do you think the final years of the PS4 will shape out? What do you think we'll see, and what would you personally like to see? Also, looking at future releases, how much of the current slate of upcoming PS4 exclusives, as-well-as previously released titles, do you think are being prepped as cross-gen/remade releases for the PS5? Are any of them games we'll see @ E3? Keep up the good work - Voxx91

You're about to start work, preparing to load up SiftD with the latest E3 content. Do you get yourself a coffee or tea? [probably make a good Splatfest question now that I think of it]

What game at E3 are you most anticipating and why? Least anticipated or don't care about and why? Non-E3 question: Who is your favorite video game character, hero and villain, and why?
