++Good Games (Double Plus Good Games) Podcast
Summary: ++Good Games is based on the concept of "Newspeak" proposed in George Orwell's book "1984." Newspeak stemmed from idea that there were simply too many words to describe the same thing. The basic concept behind Newspeak was to remove all shades of meaning from language boiling dialog down to simple dichotomies: pleasure and pain, happiness and sadness, good and evil. ++Good Games believes that the Dystopian (often post-apocalyptic) "1984″ premise is not only being used as a graphic backdrop for today’s games (Half Life 2, Bioshock, Fallout, et al) but it is also being used in the industry's game reviews system. reducing the need for deep thinking and conversation about games. This ever-expanding games industry shows no signs of slowing down. New gamers are coming onboard every day and older gamers are spreading the gamer-demographic across five (or more) decades. With iPhones, 3DS and downloadable games lowering the barrier for entry into this pastime, we are absolutely in a Golden Age of gaming.
