There is a lot of merger and acquisitions news this week. Bethesda’s parent company, Zenimax Media, has acquired id Software. It’s a somewhat strange pair, but Zemimax says that they will allow id complete feedom. Mythic has merged with BioWare with the doctors at the head of the studios. Mythic is famouse for their MMOs so it would be safe to assume they will be helping with Star Wars: The Old republic.
Hilary had a chance to see Transformers 2 and he doesn’t have too many nice things to say about. This, of course, leads in to a frequent topic on TRL, G.I. Joe. Get ready for some serious 80s nostalgia to be ruined.
Covered topics and games: Bethesda parent Zenimax aquires id Software, Mythic merges with BioWare, Transformers 2 not so good, G.I. Joe, email, Borderlands
This week, Colin Moriarty steps in for Erik Brudvig and geeks out about G.I. Joe with Hilary Goldstein, as poor Chucky Onyett looks on, unsure of what to say. Join us as we discuss the abomination known as Transformers: Rise of the Fallen, the merits of hockey and some stuff about games for kicks.
