Julian was reeled by the one fruit that rules them all this week so he is eager to get some games on his new iPhone. Everyone has been playing some amount of Batman and Sean deems it to be 1 of his top 5 games of all time even though he is only 1/4 of the way in. Julian has also been playing Champions Online and he offers his take that super heroes just aren’t suited for MMOs.
The guys are pretty excited about The Beatles: Rock Band and this leads into a discussion about what kind of music and bands/artists they would like to see added to the Rock Band repertoire. They guys do touch upon PAX and mention that it’s important to go to these kinds of events to be part of the larger community.
This show was recorded live over UStream so the guys take questions from the chat room during the second half of the show. Topics vary, but one of the more interesting ones is centered around the resurrected adventure genre and wanting to see more comedy represented in games. This expands out to a discussion on book to game adaptations.
Also, the GWJ Donation Drive 2009 is happening so head over there, support the GWJ crew, and you may even win yourself a nice price.
Covered games and topics: iPhone, Batman, Champions Online, The Beatles: Rock Band, Rock Band songs, adventure/comedy games
This week Sean, Rob and Julian hold down the fort and do a surprising amount of disagreeing at each other. They also announce some details about the donation drive! But then, if you read the site, you already know about that. Don’t forget to submit your own question for the list!
