Player One Podcast: Episode 157 – That’s Evolution!

7:35 am
October 26th, 2009

Player One PodcastTweets start this week’s cast with topics ranging from the Modern Warfare 2 private server issue to good entry FPSs for the uninitiated. Phil does a good job of dismissing the MW2 to issue and fields a questions about his current state of unemployment. CJ chimes-in to share another story in his ongoing battle with Best Buy.

Phil announces that he is going to pick up Tekken 6, much to everyone’s bafflement. Fighting games are a dying breed, and Tekken 6 is probably going to have an uphill battle upon release. Greg Sewart is still loving Need for Speed Shift, but Gran Turismo PSP is doing anything for him with its strange car availability system.

Rock Band for iPhone/iPod Touch was released last week, but it fails in a major way. While the features and song list seem adequate, the visuals lag behind the music, making it almost unplayable. Lips Number One Hits and DJ Hero impressions close out the show.

Covered games and topics:  Tweets, Modern Warfare 2 private servers, Phil’s job hunt, imports, entry-FPS, game deals, Tekken 6, Gran Turismo PSP, 5 Minutes to Kill Yourself, Rock Band iPhone, Lips Number One Hits, DJ Hero

This week! Topics of conversation in tweets include the first/worst game we’ve imported, Modern Warfare 2 dedicated servers, internet anger, Dead Space Wii’s lackluster sales, paying extra to get games early, and which big-name game between now and March will be the biggest commercial failure. Then we get along to games of the week, which include Space Invaders Extreme 2, Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo, Beatles Rock Band (Abbey Road DLC), Guitar Hero: World Tour, DJ Hero, Rock Band iPhone, Borderlands, Lips Number One Hits, and Ratchet and Clank Future: Tools of Destruction.
