By: Mstrwiggles x Show Full PostYour conversation of "hand-holding" and understanding the mechanics of the game instantly made me think of Egoraptor's Sequelitis episode about Mega Man X (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8FpigqfcvlM). He touches on almost every point you guys do.Oct 08, 2012 7:25am PDT
I am actually pretty shocked (and pleasantly surprised) to see Resident Evil 6 getting the kind of scores it is, having played the game all weekend thanks to a broken street-date.
I figured the fact that is was arguably the biggest AAA Japanese release of the year would have led to some... leniency on the part of reviewers.
Maybe that call-out by the AC3 dude actually caused some people in the media to sit-up and take notice of their own internalized bias.
Whatever the case, I would recommend most gamers stay away from the game until a significant price drop. If you're looking for a survival horror game.... I don't know, what's a good survival horror game these days? If you're looking for a good third-person shooter (which is what the game seems to want to be despite it's outdated design) then just pick-up or replay Gears of War 3 or something.

By: DevSword x Show Full PostSo I want to comment on the co-op innovations Jeff was alluding to. From reviews, it sounds like on occasion the campaigns will cross over in real time, with online players from differing campaigns. And while I think this is a great core idea, I think the implementation sounds extremely flawed because A. You constantly have 2 player co-op forced on you, and B. with 3, 2 player co-op campaigns, there is no room left for NPC characters.
So for A. it means that for every campaign Capcom made they felt the need to create a completely disposable co-op character to go along with it. As a result of this chosen design path, RE6 is the biggest Resident Evil ever, but it lacks so many of the key players. Jill Valentine, Barry Birkin, Rebecca Chambers, Carlos Olivera have all been excluded from the plot.
It would have been a lot more effective if Capcom had created campaigns driven by 1 player, and actually designed gameplay systems around giving players the opportunity to cross over, work together, and interact at points.
Its a mistake to think that co-op in the conventional sense is at the core of RE's identity. It has always been about a real time simulated scenario, with multiple characters---almost like the video game version of 24.
In Resident Evil 1, there were multiple ways of getting the shotgun for instance. You could either get the broken shotgun, to prevent yourself from being crushed. Or if you did it at the right time Barry would save you. But furthermore, if you did it at the wrong time as Jill, Barry would not save you. Because in the logic of the game's timeline and scenario, he does not happen to be outside the door when the RE Mansion Human Panini Press is trying to make a Jill Sandwhich, and she is crying for help.
When you have a scenario that is so carefully crafted like that---it negates the notion that the story telling is bad because the voice acting is shoddy, or the dialogue wasn't translated well. The point is that the game is responding to the player's choices, and thus creating a more immersive experience.
So I think in this modern, online equipped context, perhaps you could let a player unlock a door to get to the person playing online as Jill, but unfortunately it will cost you a lock pick. And not only that, but Jill is at the other end of a hallway, she ran out of ammo herself and the hallway is full of zombies. But maybe she's been hoarding green herbs for the last hour of gameplay, so if you get to her, (on top of the story sequence) that is your reward. That is how to keep the integrity of the series, and make it modern----shooting mechanics be damned.
So the thing I wanted to say about point B. is that if you take a cast of 6 characters, living in constant pairings, there is no way to appreciate their mystery as individuals in the plot line. Part of what made Ada Wong such a memorable character in RE2, is that you did not know her true motives, because she was constantly sneaking away from Leon, and making up stories about her boyfriend.
So if you reduce her to a dead co-op cipher, she can't have any of those characteristics. She might as well be a rolling turret in a red dress. The tension in the stories of early Resident Evil games was from not knowing when you'll stumble upon another survivor, ally, or just a non-zombified person---be it snake bitten Joseph, who needs an antidote, little Sherry Birkin, or the deranged Police Chief Irons. Its a core tenant of zombie fiction in general to play on humanity's ability to cooperate.
I think this is also why modern Final Fantasy games seem so intelligent. In a JRPG you traditionally have a really large party. But along with that is supposed to come this really big, novelistic canvas to work with. You can take the time to visit a character's home town and explore their back story etc. When you funnel everything down a hall way, the environment can't sustain all the different personalities.Oct 02, 2012 8:46pm PDTSo I want to comment on the co-op innovations Jeff was alluding to.

I have to say I think the Galaxy S commercials are hysterical. It's a reminds me of forum trolls and Nintendo. Yes they are completely right when does apple/Nintendo get the new tech, well maybe next year or maybe 2/4 years from now. But that doesn't change that's it still the best at being a cool toy for everyone. Apple and Nintendo are very much alike in that way. Neither is really that cutting edge in the power department, but both are sharp as a razor in creating a experience you can't get anywhere else.Oct 02, 2012 6:08pm PDT
By: Rvancetal x Show Full PostThree things that came up from the Borderlands 2 stuff.
The game made it obvious to me early on that it was only saving world progress whenever you reached a new Zone, which does add that need to get to the next zone before quitting which I enjoy.
The ECHO stuff is the slick quest design that you guys are talking about, the text / speech automatically transfers from ECHO to person and back as you move away from them. Sure they have quest text but it is very superficial because they explain the major points to you during the quest & right as it begins, through voice.
Finally Cannata I have beef with you on your comment to Garnett working within the confines of the game rather than vice-versa. You talk about board games and card games and all kinds of games all the time. If you want to be playing a game you have to submit to the predefined structure of rules that the game imposes, if you don't like its specific formulation of those rules that is one thing, but demanding that it copy another form that may not even work is INSANE. Games need to have rules that the player must follow or else it will just be imagination and not a game. Also games have no business conforming to schedules of individual people.Sep 29, 2012 4:39am PDTThree things that came up from the Borderlands 2 stuff.

By: DevilShootsDevil x Show Full PostHey guys, I was listening to episode 132 and Garnett was furiously defending 12 Monkeys against Looper ("puts that movie to shame"), when I thought about an old topic you guys talked about a while back. Whether video games represent an art form. Well yeah, I think so. Here's my argument (borrowed from a very sophisticated non-philosopher Sir Ernst Gombrich and his major work, "Art and Illusion"):
Gombrich defended the general art form from titans such as Aristotle and Plato via historical perspective! Who the hell is Roger Ebert compared to them? Hell, he's not even an "ideal critic" according to David Hume's essay "Of the Standrad of Taste", violating at least 2 requirements. The main point of Gombrich's argument is that pictorial representation has a history, where art students get exposed to the history of art, and as a result improve on this history by creating superior art. Video Games, therefore, is a media that progressively develops very rapidly, as an art form. Remember the memories of your favorite old games? Try playing them now, they all look like crap, you can't even see anything behind those pixels! However, Gombrich argues art should NOT be judged by the conventions available now. In other words, I'm taking philosophy in college, but barely post here even though I've been listening since ep. 1. Thought I'd maybe bring an old conversation back. Keep up the good work, Cheers.Oct 02, 2012 8:22am PDTHey guys, I was listening to episode 132 and Garnett was furiously defending 12 Monkeys against Looper ("... : DevilShootsDevil
By: CampKusoge x Show Full PostOkay, this is a very minor nitpick in the grand scheme, but it's starting to turn into a pet peeve of mine:
Can we please please please stop using "when is the last time you _______" as a measure of... well... anything at all? It's one of the most arbitrary distinctions you could come up with, and says next to nothing about the game or a person's a affection for it.
How recently someone played something falls into the same category as asking how many hours a person has played a game. Maybe there's a passing correlation between hours sank and a person's fandom or perception of quality, but it's still so subjective that you just can't use one to measure the other.
For instance, I'm planning on getting the new Monster Hunter for the 3DS when it comes stateside, but what if I don't log as many hours into it as I did with the Wii version. Is is a worse game? Do I love it less? Or let's take Portal 2, which I played over the course of a single day in 3 or 4 marathon sessions and haven't touched since. Does that say anything about me... or about Portal 2 for that matter?
And trust me, you're talking to a guy who loves knowing this kind of data. I love that my 3DS activity log gives me charts of play time, and ranks all my games by time played, times launched, and average session lengths, I look at those numbers all the time, perhaps unhealthily so. (Tetris Axis is number 1, if anyone was wondering), but at the same time, none of those numbers actually *mean* anything in and of themselves.
Aside from that very tiny complaint, this was a great episode.Sep 28, 2012 8:48pm PDTOkay, this is a very minor nitpick in the grand scheme, but it's starting to turn into a pet peeve of min... : CampKusoge
Garnett I understand the desire for a easy button, maybe a slightly better tutorial. The problem is any tutorial or training mode can only transfer a hour or so of knowledge. With any sport there are so many little nuances that it would take a 100 hour tutorial.
Let's take madden the best tutorial for madden is actually Sunday mornings and jaws's breakdown. Explaining why your looking at the safeties and what 2 steps left rather than right means a good decesion. Players spend there whole life's learning the game and sometimes still can't grasp what they're looking at (Vick can't recognize defense pre snap well). Yet you expect a quick fix, the truth is there is no quick fix it's time and practice mode just like the real life game.Sep 29, 2012 4:24am PDTGarnett I understand the desire for a easy button, maybe a slightly better tutorial.

Should share this tip, don't do side quests with loot you want on Playthough 2, the game only allows you do Side quests twice for some reason(original and one more) and once you beat the game on true vault hunter as I understand it the enemies all scale up to 50 and then you can accept the quests and get the leveled 50 version of the gear.Oct 01, 2012 5:02am PDTAlso speaking of Borderlands and difficulty at level 45 and surprised at how much it ramps up and how muc... : Rvancetal

By: Smogrocker x Show Full PostLoved how much time you spent on FIFA, most American podcasts never even mention it even though it's always one of the best-selling games across the globe and you guys do have a lot of listeners from around the world.
As to Cannata's question whether you notice the differences in a team's daily or weekly form, I can assure you that already last year when the "Live Season" was DLC it made such a big difference. For example I follow the German Bundesliga in most detail and I can actually bring a player from the bench who I know has scored several goals the last weeks and in most cases I end up scoring goals with that particular player online. And it adds up I guess, I think or know that he's in good shape so I try to pass the ball to him more often in front of goal and then, when shooting, his accuracy or power is better this week so the probability of the goalie saving it goes down.
Those are the best moments in Fifa, when you really feel like you used the right strategy to be successful! Especially when you play together with a friend on the couch and can more effectively work towards the particular advantage the team has each week. It makes the game as dynamic as the real leagues -- or at least gets a big step closer to it!Sep 28, 2012 9:55pm PDTLoved how much time you spent on FIFA, most American podcasts never even mention it even though it's alwa... : Smogrocker
By: spidlb x Show Full PostI love that Garnett went from one story where one guy says he only buys games when they hit $20 or waits for the game of the year the complains the "$110" price point commitment. Forza: Horizon will probably be $30 during the run up to Black Friday. That is not to mention the Season Pass itself will probably go on sale six months after release.

By: ericthecro x Show Full PostHey, I didn't mean to sound too preachy on the last one about waiting for games. I maybe should have mentioned that I have the same attitudes toward movies and consumer electronics. I'm just not a Day 1 zeitgeist sort of person. Obviously that doesn't apply to most people, and good for you if you like that stuff!
Maybe it sounded defensive, because something a lot of podcasts and gaming communities will do is to give a chuckle when the idea of spoilers comes up for games that are 3+ months old. "Haha, do you really need to give a spoiler warning for something like Batman Arkham City? r(Obviously)r everyone who ever wanted to play it every already has." I just wanted to give the other side of the coin. Sometimes that answer is no, people really are waiting to play it. I'm fine with quick "Skip ahead 2 minutes" spoiler warnings just curious at how there really seems to be a bubble in the gaming community assuming everyone is part of the zeitgeist.

By: RedSwirl x Show Full PostWhen it comes to saving your game, I just wish every game had a temporary save state system. Nintendo implemented this with all Virtual Console games on the Wii, and as a result you can still play all those games with their original difficulty intact, but you can also stop playing whenever you need to. I really hope the console manufacturers implement some kind of system-wide temporary save state feature next gen. I heard the Vita does something sort of similar but I don't own one.Sep 29, 2012 9:45pm PDT

First of all, the bangs are so long that the first time I put it on I could not see where I was going. Rather than being soft and flexible like human hair, the strands are stiff and sharp like porcupine quills. One went in my eye and has scratched the cornea. After fussing with it for a few minutes I discovered that the cap had a tight, awkward fit that contracted no matter how many times I tried to pull it flat so that I looked like my head came to a point.The color is called Honey. It's really more of a dull, ashy frosted. Not natural looking at all. Needless to say, it's going back!

Great Light Weight and Casual style
By casualgal

Love the color (Honey) and love the way it fits. It is very comfortable. My friends and family do not even know I am wearing a wig. It looks very natural..
Really lovely
By Wonderwen
from Southport, NC
Even though the color was different than I expected, I like the wig so much that I'm not exchanging it. I'll save it for fall and winter, and. . . I'll probably have my own hair colored to match the wig for fall and winter..I've ordered another wig in a lighter color, and if I really like the new one, I may order a second "Liberty" in that color as well.
Liberty Wig

I used to wear my hair in this style in the 1970's and was thrilled to feel just as glamorous and youthful as I did back then! The texture of the hair is beautiful. I am wearing the wig for special occasions. It looks great with a big hat. The only "not so great" is that the banks are a bit long for me.

Journal Communications employees received the following memo Monday, on the 33rd day of the blackout of Journal Broadcast Group stations, including WTMJ-TV (Channel 4), on Time Warner Cable.
The dispute between them is over fees the cable service pays to carry a stations' programming. Time Warner is in a similar dispute with CBS-owned stations, whose settlement will set the standard for the future, said the Hollywood Reporter. »Read Full Blog Post(23)

David Mitchell's 'Bone Clocks' revisits story lines of 'Cloud Atlas'
Count on David Mitchell — whose novels regularly suggest a Borgesian library — to invoke one of the most famous literary labyrinths of all in "The Bone Clocks," his extraordinary new novel:
"Half way along our journey to life's end I found myself astray in a dark wood," admits one of Mitchell's protagonists — invoking the opening of Dante's "The Divine Comedy" to describe his midlife crisis, which prominently features the decline of his once-promising career as a novelist. »Read Full Article
Greil Marcus travels back roads of rock history through 'Ten Songs'
"The History of Rock 'n' Roll in Ten Songs" is not quite a people's history a la Howard Zinn, although it deals more with individuals and small groups than with large-scale movements. Nor is it an entirely alternate history, although it views major events and figures through the depth of field of a lens focused on minor ones.
It certainly is not an "official, standard" history, Greil Marcus writes, because the 10 songs he has chosen "made no apparent history other than their own." They nevertheless "might count for more than any master narrative that excludes them." »Read Full Article

Known for his progressive approach of surfing, Matt is 100% dedicated to free surfing and follows the endless summer. He likes big moves with speed and commitment, he reverses anywhere he can, get in the air as often he can, but he's not just a tricky surfer. He can turn with power, get barreled into some heavy cold water slabs or charge some big hollow waves.
Born in 1986, Matt has spent half of his life in Australia for high school. Obviously Surfing was his favorite class in Narrabeen, indeed he got back to the UK with his Australian surfing degree in the pocket mixing new school, power and charging… Now Matt is one of the most visible UK surfer wherever a good session is Matt isn't that far. Participating to couple of contests to stay in shape, Matt likes to have fun weather if it is on land with his bro and mates, in the water or answering an interview on his favorite porn websites …

"Bat Mitzvah gift"
By Jerry
Comments: I attended my first Bat Mitzvah ceremony last week and prior to the event, I was kind of stump on what to get. I looked everywhere online and just couldnt find anything. Alas, I found your site and even had its own category which made my shopping quite breezy. Ordered the photo album and quickly arrived to my doorstep! I was very impressed and the young lady loved her new photo album. I appreciate the work and service!

A bouncer who broke up a fight at a popular Scottsdale night club was stabbed on the job. This past weekend, 27-year-old ASU alum Tyrice Thompson died as a result of his injuries.
What happened is serving as a wake-up call, especially to the mayor of Scottsdale. The mayor issued a call for action as a direct result of that stabbing.
Jim Lane is asking for business owners, city leaders and Scottsdale police to start discussions about safety protocol inside the entertainment district.
Approximately 8 million people visit the city of Scottsdale annually. On any given Friday or Saturday night, as many as 20,000 enjoy the bar scene downtown. A scene recently marred with high profile violence.
Actor Jason London was arrested on January 27th for his involvement in a fight at Martini Ranch in Scottsdale.
On that same night in a separate incident, bouncer Tyrice Thompson was stabbed during an altercation and eventually died as a result.
"We want to make sure that we look at these things seriously and make sure that we are doing the best possible job we can with all the resources that we have," said Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane on Monday.
Scottsdale Mayor Jim Lane wants to know if a five step security plan put into place about 15 years ago needs to be updated -- or if establishments need to submit their plan more than once as is currently required.
"It makes altogether good sense if you're going to have a security plan, which we do, that we are looking at it from time to time."
"I think it needs to be reviewed to make sure it's being kept up to what our promises are to the city with our plans," said Les Corieri, president of the Scottsdale Entertainment Downtown Association.
Les Corieri is a downtown Scottsdale bar owner. Corieri says the 20 or so businesses he represents are ready to do what it takes to provide tighter security for patrons and employees, to prevent a senseless tragedy like the one that took Tyrice Thompson's life.
"I've been down here for nearly thirty years and this has never happened before. For it to happen once is too many but it hasn't happened before so this is very isolated."
The mayor says he also wants to look at the ratio of security officers to patrons, and the idea of requiring security cameras at all bars.
The meeting is set for Monday. It's open only to bar owners and police, but the mayor says city council might be asked to join in the future.

Sorry for being slack over the last month and a half .... I have been making weekly notes but have posted them en masse in one big catch up.
Just finished (30/4) a 1999 Majella Malleea Cabernet Shiraz, drunk over two nights. Excellent juice with a jubey, black pastille and dark plum nose with a fair underpinning input from savoury/spicy/mocha oak (22 months new French). The usual Coonawarra culprits lurk cagily underneath - red earth, green olives, some old leather and cigar box - the wine, night two, really came together and displayed much better integration, immaculate balance and was fully resolved on a long and prestigious finish. Not the greatest Coonawarra but certainly up there. Ready to drink now with a decent decant or cellar for a few years and drink relatively soon thereafter. 91 points. 13.5% A/V Cork closure.
Seppelt Moyston Cabernet Merlot 2003 - Murray Stiles served this masked (alongside a magnificent bottle of 1990 389) at a Melbourne offline in circa 2005 - this was a $10 wine on release, and at the time I thought it truly outstanding (scoring it about 92 points, IIRC). At ten years of age and from a notoriuously hot and difficult vintage, this wine still shines like a beacon, just entering its secondary fruit development stage with bucketloads of reserves, excellent balance and structure, good colour, impressive aromatics, full body, lovely oak complexity, resolute tannins, softening acidity and a long resilient finish. I'd score it about the same as ten years ago. It will last for at least another ten years.
Opened one of my last pristine bottles of 1988 Orlando St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet after buying multiple bottles of puss of the same from auction recently. My cellared wine was impeccably coloured for its considerable age, had that amazingly complex aged Coonawarra nose and palate of weedy blackcurrants, cigar box, herbs, sweet earth, spice box, saddle leather that justs sits so nicely in the mouth with its refined excellence and wonderful structure. 92 points but definitely a drink now/soon experience.
And a blast from the past - I bought a mixed case of 1989 and 1990 Zind-Humbrecht Alsace Vedange Tardive varietals - (Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewurztraminer) - from John Osbeitson many years ago that provided truly memorable drinking experiences and just recently saw a bottle of 1990 Hengst Gewurztraminer VT from Z-H languishing at a local auction. I bought it for far less than I paid all those years ago. The wine is still in remarkably good condition, although the colour is now a slightly cloudy gold colour. Aromatically the wine reveals a wealth of spicy lychee and apricot fruit with telltale varietal musk and lavish tropical fruit character. The explosive palate is still both fresh and exceedingly complex with remarkably good lively acidity providing the perfect foil to the rich and unctious fruit (aka the nose). Although mature, this outstanding wine shows no signs of cracking up and should drink awfully well for at least to the end of this decade. 93 points
Whlist performing at the Tooleybuc Jazz FestivalI opened a 1990 Ch. Giscours (Margaux 3rd Growth) with dinner on Friday 19th April which was spectacularly good - heaps of developing red and black fruit - mostly ripe blackcurrant with perplexing cigar box, sweet earth and underbrush character. Plenty of concentration on the palate with exceedingly good structure and terrific length featuring superfine lacy tannins. Good for medium term cellaring. 93 12.5% A/V
Next up (Saturday 20th April) was another sterling bottle of 1988 Wynns John Riddoch Cabernet. Very similar to the last bottle I had very recently, perhaps a point or two less but right up there in quality and just a sensational glass of classic Coonawarra cabernet. I was surprised by the beguiling green peppercorn character in this wine (amongst all the usual culprits).
On the Sunday night after we completed our final set, I opened a 1990 St Hubert's Cabernet which was a picture of refined elegance and varietal clarity with alluring aromatics of leafy blackcurrant fruit and a wonderfully fine palate with a long satisfying finish. 92 A very well preserved (and cellared) bottle I bought for less than $20 last year.
Had another mini-post-birthday-celebration last night (17/4) with the family and cracked an excellent bottle of 1989 Calon-Segur. Poured like an old-coloured wine and, initially, not much of note to report on the nose, this morphed out beautifully over many hours picking up on both bouquet and palate - mostly aged red fruits, lots of leather, sweet earth, gently sweet tea-like tannins, pretty well fully resolved wine. Drink up if you have any. About 88 from me.
Today (18/4) after band practice, I opened an 1988 John Riddoch over lunch, with a fill level of bottom of the neck. Cork was evenly saturated to within 1mm of it's end. This bottle was beyond outstanding and somewhat better than the 1984 I opened the other night that, too, performed very well indeed. It was a more youthful and statuesque version of the marque with gloriously fullsome and complex aromatics and a fantastically rich, well-endowed (but only just over medium-body) palate with simply superb counterbalancing structure. At a very moderate 12.3% alcohol, this wine is the perfect Coonawarra Cabernet. At least 10 years drinkability on this bottle's showing today. Somewhere approaching 95 points for this bottle today.
The 1985 Leoville-Barton is a rip snorter of wine. Great colour for its considerable age followed by a quite mesmerizing powerful nose of loam, sandalwood, complex mature red and black fruit amongst umpteem other much smaller things going on ("good" barnyardy stuff at first (blew off quicky), cigar box, herbs, green peppers, iron, beef blood and lots more). The palate was just as impressive although didn't quite match the bouquet for intensity but was in no way any the worse for it. A wonderful array of beguiling, integrated flavours mimicking the bouquet, near perfect mouthfeel and wonderful structure, including a lengthy, soft, delectable finish. A textbook St Julien from a wonderfully elegant but sumptuous vintage and one of my all time favourites. Simply amazing how French Bordeaux red wine can just keep on keeping on. 94 points.
As a pre-dinner quaffer we cracked the 2009 Willi Schaefer Wehlener Sonnenuhr Spatlese that was very good to excellent in all respects, piles of crunchy green apply fruit with some tropical top notes, perhaps a wee too sugary for me for the spatlese level but has the potential for a lot better things down the track. Quite decent extract in the mouth - expansive with plenty of balancing acidity. I'd leave it for at least 3-4 years. 88+
2007 Christian Moreau Chablis Valmur - ready to rock'n'roll, developing orchard fruit with a surprising hint of butterscotch and a chablis-like chalky minerality. Not quite up the lofty heights I was expecting but still an excellent wine. 90
2008 Eileen Hardy Chardonnay - heaps of trophy's and golds on the bottle - lifted, heavily worked new barrel charaters (including flint, struck match and char) galore on the nose - too much so for me - palate much better balanced with great harmony of tight quality melon and underripe stonefruit and classy subdued, integrated oak, heaps of nicely-judged acid and a long, quite classy finish. Probably needs several years in the cellar to be fully ready. 89+
1983 Ch. Beychevelle - a most successful vintage for this mostly overperforming lowly St. Julien classified growth - fully mature bricking colour, ever unfolding complex, mature nose of some considerable class and a silky, ohso good palate of identical excellence, both in it's aged definition and immaculate structure. This drank almost increasingly well for almost 8 hours until the bottle was exhausted of its delicate precious contents. A memorable drinking experience. About 92.
Bullers Premium Fine Muscat - 375 ml (screwcap) - for just over $20 this is one helluva good sweet fortified. Wonderful old aged material blended expertly with fresher, grapier, material to produce an outstandingly smooth and sumptuous liqueur muscat. 93 and fantastic value.
Wynns John Riddoch Cabernet 1984 - I have been drinking this wine in small quantities for over 24 hours (cork not back in) and it has hardly budged. Nice deep ruby colour with only minimal lightening in the edges. A little worrisome when first poured with seemingly some DMS character, this wine improves dramatically on the nose shortly after sitting in the glass, offering up classic inky Coonawarra scents of weedy blackcurrant, plums, herbs, cedar, sweet damp, earth, saddle leather, savoury oak and regional mint. The palate is an absolute treat, medium bodied, everything nicely integrated, still good levels of lively acidity but almost fully resolved, delicate lacy tannins with still quite fresh dark berried fruit with bits and pieces of wonderful complexity similar to what I describe on the nose beautifully woven throughout. I read rather ordinary things about this wine from a lot of supposed fine palates from time to time. For the life of me, I have not had one bad experience with this wine in recent years. I'd rate this a solid 93 and could be drunk safely over the next 5 -10 years if in as good condition as the bottle reviewed here.
Just a couple for me this last (very sad) week ending 7 April. Chateau Ferriere (Margaux) 1996. Drunk with my best friend on Saturday night with about the best lamb roast I've ever knocked up (the herb and garlic marinated leg was slow-cooked on a rack in my hooded bbq for 3 hours at 95C over a replenished water-filled baking tray). This was fitting because, the wine was so lovely to drink and in such a nice spot and matched the lamb and the roast and steamed vegies to an absolute tee, and also because my friend has just lost his daughter (27 years old) to suicide. His wife also departed this earth in the same sad way about 15 years ago, which makes this whole episode just that much worse for everyone involved. I'm sorry I burden you with such terrible news, but it may give you some idea of the extent of my grief at the moment, let alone what my friend and his family are going through. And it was a nice gesture of Rob to propose a toast with this fine glass of claret to "life". 90 points
Here's a bit about the Chateau from the pen of Master of Wine, Jancis Robinson - "This property was officially ranked a third growth in the 1855 classification but was virtually abandoned during the first world war. The vineyards, which extend to barely 10 ha, began to be revived in the 1960s by Alexis Lichine but it took the Merlaut family, now owners of Ch Gruaud Larose, to put it back on the map and marketplace. Today, Jean Merlaut's niece Claude Villars-Lurton runs it, alongside Chx la Gurgue and Haut-Bages-Libéral. Looking at my notes for other vintages of Ferrière via the tasting notes search, I see that the 2001 also stood out in a similar way for me – and this was another vintage, like 1996, in which the Cabernets had difficulty ripening in the Médoc, but clearly the Cabernet Sauvignon which dominates the encepagement here has some ingredient X – gentle winemaking? – which makes it shine in such vintages."
The other wine I opened earlier in the week was a very ordinary bottle of 2010 Lawson's Dry Hills Pinot Gris. I can't understand why anyone bothers with such a grape and this style. Unoaked, 14% A/V with a fair dollop of residual sugar. Non-descript melon and musk stick nose with a so-so melon/apply palate with almost prickly acidity, then the sugar kicks in, then the alcoholic heat and not much of a finish. The Alsatians and Italians can handle this grape pretty well at times, but in general, I just always pass with this somewhat "orphan" varietal. 65 points
Tyrrell's 2002 Vat 47 Chardonnay can be quite a beast (and also annoyingly variable with cork and oxidation problems) and although I have not tried one for some time now, I wasn't expecting a whole lot. Upon opening, the colour was a gloriously bright yellow with virtually no evidence of any significant age. The nose delivered a bevy of fresh complex scents of butter, yellow peach, honeydew melon, grilled nuts, fresh cream with a substantial but not overpowering delicious oak backing. Likewise, the palate delicious and loaded with bucketloads of crunchy green fruit, grapefruit, a distinct vein of minerality, plenty of lively acidity and subtle oak. Possessing excellent poise and fine balance, finishing with very good length and some attractive astringency, this excellent white is worthy of something approaching 90 points.
Chapel Hill's 1990 Reserve Shiraz is a bit of a legend with me. I bought quite a lot of this and cellared and drunk over a case until circa 2005. This bottle was acquired recently on the secondary market and again, not many expectations accompanied its procural. In top condition, harbouring a delightful medium ruby core, stunning aromatics of sweet plums, blackberry and licorice with leather and earth in the background. The palate's fully resolved with sweet mature fruit aka the nose, of medium weight with subtle integrated oak, melted tannins and a long soft finish. At the end of its drinking window most probably but a wonderful experience all the same. 91 points.
Early in the week I opened an impressive bottle of 1996 Ch. Du Tertre, a classified growth from Margaux. The wine displayed a slightly transparent but bright and healthy ruby red colour and a typical damp earth nose enhanced with attractive notes of cassis, herbs, green bean, truffle, leather and iron that improved and intensified with extended breathing. The palate, only of medium weight, revealed very similar flavours to what was found in the bouquet. The structure here was exemplary with a wonderful elegance, a tight line, excellent persistence, bright acidity and lacy, fine tannins. About ready to be drunk but could have a ten year drinking window. Approaching 89 points.
Opened a newly arrived bottle of screwcapped Petaluma 2002 Hanlin's Hill Riesling that is a whole different animal to anything I've opened before. A certain oiliness has permeated here, something I haven't noticed to such an extent before. Otherwise the colour was pretty healthy (a good sign, I suppose) and there's a wealth of lime and toasty varietal fruit to burn with enough acidity to pull things together at the back end ... but something's just not quite right. If I had not seen so much of this in the past, I would score it at 88 points. It lasted reasonably well in the fridge for 3 days ... hardly budging an inch. I now have to open another bottle to try and make some sense of this.
A Seppelt 1999 Dorrien Cabernet from the same source also looked pretty good albeit different to what I've opened before. It seems to have lost some weight compared to the last bottle, although the fruit is still decidedly fresh and berried and delivered consistently very good drinking over the weekend. The cork was saturated almost to the end, so I would think this has not come from the greatest of cellars. 89 points.
Orlando's 1998 St Hugo Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon was the highlight of the week. This wine is in a very good place now with the fruit decidedly secondary and taking on some of the classic Coonawarra 'red dirt' character but displays enough youthfulness of structure to warrant extended cellaring for at least another 5 years. It should drink well for another decade thereafter. 92
Made the necessary sacrifice and thank the wine gods this next bottle of Petaluma 2002 Hanlin Hill Riesling is in absolute magnificent condition. Gorgeous colour and sublime aromatics followed by wonderful freshness, balance, perfect symmetry, wonderful line, great purity, amazing texture and terrific length .... 94+ points. And the fruit and acidity ain't half bad either. Only worry now is the bottle variation.
For me, with a good friend coming over for dinner Friday night (15/3), I decided to take a bit of a punt (against the prospect of premature oxidation) and open one of my last bottle's from Francois Raveneau - the 2002 Montee de Tonnerre. And what an absolute belter it was. Still a healthy and bright youthful colour of very pale straw gold; engrossing flinty aromatics of minerals, citrus, pear and a faint nuttiness (perhaps hazelnuts) from a kiss of quality oak followed by a strikingly beautiful palate that holds the most immaculate, lengthy line, possesses sublime steely fruit (suggestive of crushed salty, calciferous rocks, pear and lemon/lime juice and nutty oak) and amazing purity and breed throughout. Considerable drinking window possible if this bottle was representative of the marque - 94 points. Why can't all top French Chardonnay remain in as good condition as this? Paired almost perfectly with Tassal Tasmanian smoked slamon served with sour cream, chives, capers, cracked pepper and a simple fresh (from our) green garden salad with red onion and drizzled with virgin avacado oil.
This was followed by a disappointing Hubert Lignier Morey-St-Denis 1999 1er Cru Les Chaffots. Colour still excellent with a strong core. Nose was akin to a dirty duckpond. Almost unsniffable at first but did "breathe" off somewhat with swirling and air time but never completely left the wine. Startlingly, the palate was excellent, almost fully resolved with a graceful, rounded mouthfeel, attractive sweet plum and cherry fruit with some nice complexing contributions from gamy meats, truffles and pinot sap. Unfortunately the nose killed this wine. Hard to score - probably something nearing 74 points from me. Unacceptable wine. My peking duck pancakes went down a treat, though.
Other wines opened during the week included a stunningly good bottle of Grosset's 2010 Picadilly Chardonnay - top of the tree quality from go to woe here and made in the savvy new wave style that should prove successful for mid-term cellarability. 93
And lastly, one of my last bottles of Petaluma 1996 Coonawarra Merlot. I bought a small stash of these quite a while back for not a whole lot more than 20 bucks a bottle (IIRC). Last night's bottle exhibited everything a mature local Merlot should be - soft, plush, plummy with aging mulberry and blackberry with traces of cedar/biscuity oak, a slight earthiness and hints of spice, herb and dried tobacco leaf. It's got nowhere to go but downhill from here, methinks, and should be drunk in the near/very short term. 90

Worry coursing through Detroit has driven off-duty firefighters to the picket line and retired city workers to press conferences.
Detroit has filed for bankruptcy, and everything is on the table, including transforming terms of the city's pensions and eliminating retiree healthcare.
UAW President Bob King joined AFSCME leaders and politicians such as Bob Ficano for a news conference.
King said Detroit's bankruptcy is nothing like those of General Motors or Chrysler.
"We made many sacrifices, we made many changes, and we did not touch people's pensions because people's pensions are based on commitments and promises made over the years," King said.
Here is the difference. The auto industry got a federal bailout while Detroit not so much.
Still, union leaders said the city should go after outstanding tax revenue, not pensions and healthcare.
"This government has a responsibility to live up to the promises they've made to those workers, and those pensions should not be cut, and those workers' healthcare should not be cut," King said.
"I want to make sure that people understand they're going to continue to get pensions, but what we're talking about is the amount of under funded in the pensions, and we just have to deal with that. We have to come to an agreement on what that is, and we just have to move forward so people can know what to expect," said Bill Nowing, the spokesperson for the emergency manager.
Right now, Detroiters do not know what to expect. Unions and Detroit's pension boards are fighting this out in court.
Until everyone from city workers to retirees get clear details, that worry will not be going away.
There is a hearing scheduled Wednesday in bankruptcy court that will determine whether the lawsuits filed by the city's pension boards will be allowed to go forward.

If you need a feel good story to start your weekend, keep reading.
In late April while I was preparing coverage for the 2013 Kalamazoo Marathon the story of Jayni Angeli came across my desk. At 26 years old, an otherwise healthy young woman was diagnosed with nodular lymphocyte predominant Hodgkin lymphoma which is a cancer of the lymph nodes that affects young people. With an attitude as unique as her diagnosis, Angeli immediately decided to take matters into her own hands.
In the midst of beginning bi-weekly chemotherapy treatments, Jayni trained for the 5k event of the Kalamazoo Marathon, a race she competed in a month after her diagnosis. We tracked her progress in the week leading up to the race as she shaved her head in the company of close friends without a second thought.
Her unwavering determination to overcome the obstacle in front of her has been a humbling experience to watch. It's really easy to wake up with an attitude that just because you spilled your morning coffee or locked your keys in your car that your whole day is shot. Waking up everyday fighting cancer is a whole other level, and waking up with a positive attitude would be nearly impossible for most of us. During my interview with Jayni, I promised her we would continue to follow her story to the end. Happily this story has a good ending as today I learned that Jayni is to undergo her final chemotherapy treatment.
Another race won, another obstacle cleared. Congratulations Jayni! Jayni has chronicled her journey with cancer on YouTube, click here to watch her videos.

The Christmas season officially starts in many churches in Wyandotte this weekend with the beginning of Advent.
Here are a few things to know about the season.
1. Advent has a different start date each year
In 2012, Advent starts Sunday, Dec. 2. Despite the fact that most people associate the beginning of the Advent season with Dec. 1, the official dates of the season actually change each year. An anticipatory recognition of the "second coming of Christ," in the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Lutheran, Moravian, Presbyterian and Methodist traditions; Advent is the period of time preceding Christmas, beginning on whatever Sunday is nearest to Nov. 30. Because start dates vary, so does the length of each Advent season. This year, Advent officially begins Dec. 2 and ends Christmas Eve. In Eastern Orthodox churches, however, Advent begins Nov. 15, and lasts 40 days.
2. Spiritual beginnings
The word advent, from Latin adventus, means "the coming," and is often considered a time of spiritual reflection and anticipation. Advent was not routine until the fourth century when Roman Emperor Constantine commemorated Dec. 25 as Christ's official birthday. In Christian tradition, Advent is typically a season of prayer, repentance and fasting followed by celebration and joy.
3. Advent has a traditional color
While many of us associate this time of year with the colors red and green, it turns out that purple is the color most associated with Advent. Why purple? Well, it seems that in Christianity, purple symbolizes repentance and fasting. Some churches and families make advent wreaths, which include three purple candles and one pink candle. One new candle is to be lit each week in the order of purple, purple, pink (to symbolize joyous anticipation of Christmas), and then the final purple. Today however, in an effort to distinguish Advent from Lent, many churches have begun to use the color blue.
4. The Advent calendar is a relatively modern invention
The Advent calendar is a device of early 19th-century German Lutherans who used the calendar to countdown to Christmas day. While evidence varies, according to the Landesmuseum of Lower Austria, the first known Advent calendar was made by hand in 1851, while the first printed Advent calendar was produced in Hamburg, Germany in 1902 or 1903. Other sources assert that that a Swabian parishioner, Gerhard Lang, was responsible for the first printed calendar, in 1908.
You can purchase Advent calendars in some Wyandotte shops, including an inexpensive version at Aldi, 2931 Fort St., with windows that open up to chocolates.
5. Advent calendar production ceased during WWII
During WWII, the European production of Advent calendars stopped in order to save paper; but after the war, the practice reappeared, only gaining in popularity in both religious and secular circles across Europe and North America. Advent calendars are still popular today.
