As you would probably expect, a big chunk of this week’s Geekbox is all about Blizzcon. With the crew usually spending a lot of time on movies and comics, it’s nice to hear a lot of game-centric talk every once in a while.
Ryan Higgins starts this one out talking about his lees than ideal DirectTV PPV Blizzcon experience. Fortunately, Karen and Ryan were actually at the event so they share their first-hand takes. It sounds like everyone enjoyed the StarCraft tournaments with the sportscast-style live play-by-play commentary. If you have been wanting to hear more Blizzcon talk with less focus on the games and more focus on the event, you’ll get that her.
Almost everyone in the group is a wrestling fan so WWE Summerslam talk ensues. Then things move onto Batman. Karen hasn’t played it yet and doesn’t want to hear any spoilers, so you can listen worry free. Ryan S deems it the best Batman property ever, outside of the Christopher Nolan movies.
Wherein we discuss BlizzCon 2009 (lots of stuff — including the big World of Warcraft and Diablo III announcements), Ryan’s goofy musical tastes, WWE SummerSlam (because wrestling is SO nerdy), and the sheer awesomeness of Batman: Arkham Asylum. Starring Ryan Scott, Karen Chu, Mike Cruz, Andrew Fitch, and Ryan Higgins.
