I just watched that, very fascinating interview/conversation. 1 hour and 5 min for a Fallout 3 speed run somebody must've took a shortcut. :whistling:

Yeah, that's what I thought. The way they were talking seemed rather scripted. :whistling:

It's like Mario interviewing Sonic during the 90s. Sureal.

I just love how Todd calls speed runs of oblivion a "Feature". I love how he acknowledges the flaws in his games and just has fun with it

Maybe the first time someone does not ask Todd Howard the release date of Skyrim. Thanks a lot for posting this.

Yeah I don't know if it's just an effect Notch has on people, or if Todd just didn't want to do it :unsure:
And I don't know why they had to be at the opposite ends of such a long table.

Not much Skyrim related stuff but a good 'interview' (more of a conversation). I almost feel like i'm eavesdropping on them, but it's interesting to hear their opinions on other games.

When Notch said "Microsoft want everything to have kinnect" the look on todds face when he says "I am aware of that" seems to me that he had to fight to not have it implemented. Or maybe I'm just looking into things a bit too much.

Thank you very much.

Gameinformer features are so damn better than what rivals such as IGN keep putting out.
Their focus is not on drawing attention upon themselves, not on being cheaky. You can't even spot the interviewer in most of their features.They just let the guest shine naturallly, as is the case here.

Gameinformer,

You Da best.

Seemed pretty natural to me and fascinating to watch.

Obviously, Todd and Notch both have some sound bite-type canned comments about their own games that they repeat when speaking in public, but this was definitely not scripted.

It wasn't really an interview so much as a conversation.

And if you don't know who organized it, just look at the url for the link
