Hello new intro song and podcast art. Tyler is getting into Dead Space. The game was heavily covered around its release by the enthusiast press, but it ultimately didn’t sell too well. It is a great evolution of the action/horror genre and it’s great to hear it still getting some press this long after its release.
The Secret of Monkey Island Special Edition is out and the consensus is that it is a great remake of a classic game. Matt has a few qualms with the updated graphics, but it seems like it is more due to the limitations of the original art than laziness on the developer side. More remakes should include a 1-button classic/new graphics switch option. It’s also out on iPhone now for $7.99.
Tyler has started getting into PC gaming and the guys chime in with opinions on a few games. Steam is an amazing resource of great games at great prices. If you are interested in PC gaming at all, you really should get Steam and watch for their regular great deals/sales.
Covered games and topics: Dead Space, Left 4 Dead 2, MW2 Prestige edition, ‘Splosion Man, Broken Sword, Monkey Island SE, IL2, Tyler’s PC gaming experiences, Comic Con, emails
Gutentag! This week Anthony, Tyler and myself are joined by Matt from Area5 as we talk about Left 4 Dead 2, Dead Space, Ghostbusters, and more, then move on to how everyone’s keeping busy during this late (and short) slow period for releases, and close out with letters. It’s a shorter show since I had to leave about an hour later for sunny (kind of?) San Diego, but it just means the awesome is more tightly packed together!
