🎮 There is a story behind every video game.

These are the first steps of Expedition PS3: a long-term documentary project to uncover the stories behind the games of the seventh console generation.

@DoesItPlay1 No video game soundtrack with licensed music will survive intact. Remember GTA3?

Anyway, maybe preservation is not the promise that nothing will ever disappear. Maybe it is simply the refusal to let it disappear quietly.

@dannyodwyer Oh no... This is a tragic loss. My introduction to him (like many) was in Once. Incredible musician who knew how to stir the soul.

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@DoesItPlay1 I'm in.

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@noclipvideo @jeffgerstmann @jeffbakalar @cheapassgamer @sternpinball @JJPinball I love Frank's videos. Keep 'em coming. They're not only interesting and intelligent, but have real depth and heart.

@Crimsonkiller21 @DoesItPlay1 "Sure kiddo. I'm so glad we have that option."

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@ObsoleteSony I agree 😁

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@Lampontheapp @Pirat_Nation Maybe it's not fake, nor outrage. Maybe we're just kinda sad that we grew up on physical video game media, and that era is (for the most part) ending.

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@onthefencegamer @Wario64 You mean "scalpers value", right?

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

Video game publishers should at least start to make hardcover art/behind-the-scenes books the same size as video game cases. I, for one, would buy these.

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@ObsoleteSony Thank you! I love these smaller efforts to keep physical publications alive. My bookshelf is well stocked with gaming and tech history, and I'm looking forward to adding this one. Off to back the hardcover!

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@thedoitsujin @ObsoleteSony Very sad news, indeed. As is the closure of the PS3 store. Not surprising, but still...

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@Wario64 Certainly underplayed, if not underrated. It's a "Perfect 7", but one that has lived in my head for a while.

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@GamingHistorian Thank you for everything you've done. You were an inspiration to me. Best of luck in all your pursuits moving forward!

[Expedition PS3 @ExpeditionPS3]

@DarylTalksGames Thanks man. I do not fear the deep end. 🤓 I'll give it a shot and report back via Patreon.

No GenAI in PS3 games. Just sayin'.

Took this off the shelf today and realized how closely it aligns with how I think about games.

A Profound Waste of Time isn't really about content. It's about moments. Creative risks, studio stories, things that only made sense then.

Fallout creator Tim Cain has returned to Obsidian full-time.

He can’t talk about the project yet due to an NDA (“don’t bother guessing”). Hmmm...

In any case, seeing a legend return to the studio he helped shape is really exciting.
