It Only Did Everything | Sacred Symbols+, Episode 242

Please welcome writer and entrepreneur Sandeep Rai back to +. As you may recall, Sandeep first came to our show nearly a year ago to talk about his awesome book Vita Means Life, which he successfully Kickstarted and launched without a hitch (and to great fanfare). Those of us who've read that book know it's the most thorough and thoughtful work yet compiled for PlayStation's second handheld, and now Sandeep is back with a treatment for our beloved PlayStation 3 (a book which yours truly will be writing in). I was thrilled to invite Sandeep back to our show to talk shop, and get the details on the approach and content of his new book, and what we might expect from a chronicle of the PlayStation brand's most tumultuous period, bar none. PS3 is special to a lot of us for a lot of different reasons. It's awesome that someone is endeavoring to give it the respect it deserves, from an era where PlayStation's very existence was on the line. Seems unthinkable today, but 15 years ago? As you'll learn, it was very much the reality. Link to Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/52911390/it-only-did-everything-the-ps3s-unofficial-history

Awesome, I just kickstarted this a couple days ago and was wondering if Sandeep would drop back by.

Awesome discussion. PS3 has always been probably to most fascinating console in my eyes.

Great interview! Just backed the book. I really hope he does the PSP and other consoles someday, I would love a full set on my bookshelf.

After being a fan of you Colin from way back in Beyond days you have always been an inspiration. I have loved your long form writing and reviews over the years. Almost a year ago (and having no previous writing experience other than school) I started writing for a UK based gaming site. I reached out to Sandeep when he was looking for people to write retrospectives and I was delighted that he liked my writing enough to allow me to take on the Motorstorm Series Retrospective for this book. Thanks Colin for always staying true to yourself, your fans and particularly your words of encouragement last year... Carpe Diem. I really cannot wait to get the book.

Thanks Josh! PSP does feel like the right choice for the next one

Always happy to see Sandeep pop back on, and I was overjoyed to hear my name mentioned on this episode! Can't wait for this to come out, I'm so excited to read everyone else's writing.

I fucking love Sandeep so much! The conversations you have with him are soooo good. Colin you should have him more often just to talk games with him. In my opinion that would be an awesome podcast!

Missed the first book, so I grabbed the PlayStation Historian Tier that includes both books.

Thanks Ian. I’m looking forward to everyone reading your retrospectives. :)
