DJ Hero is the first topic up this week– again. The group discusses the forthcoming DLC for the game and then Greg touches on Band Hero, which he is in the midst of reviewing. Hilary recently reviewed GTAIV: The Ballad of Gay Tony and gave it a 9.2. He deems this the better of the 2 episodes and obviously enjoyed it.
Greg talks about the announcement of Netflix coming to PS3 and states that it will only require a Netflix software disc to be in the drive for a few months before it is integrated into the XMB. Modern Warfare 2 has been in the news recently with a brewing controversy over its terrorism-related content. The guys chalk this up to brilliant marketing on developer, Infinity Ward’s part, and this sounds totally plausible.
The recently announced DSi XL get some discussion before the show closes out on emails.
Covered games and topics: DJ Hero, Band Hero, GTA: The Ballad of Gay Tony, Netflix PS3, Modern Warfare 2, God of War, DSi XL, emails
