Okay, mentally prepare yourself for this news– Tony Hawk Ride is terrible. That’s right, Kevin has been playing the game and he pulls no punches here, or in his review. Sophia is full of energy this week and shares her love for Modern Warfare and talks about shooters in general.
It was a busy week of news with EA leading the headlines with their announcement of substantial layoffs. The Saboteur developer was hit the hardest with an almost complete shuttering of the studio, but the EA will not be retiring the Pandemic name. Sony is making big changes to the PSN, including the move towards making PSN IDs universal across services and the addition of a paid PSN tier.
The cast finishes with emails and a rather lengthy homework section that is again centered around charitable giving and Child’s Play.
Covered games and topics: Tony Hawk Ride, MW 2, Assassin’s Creed 2, layoffs, Saboteur, new Zelda incoming, NXE update, universal PSN, paid PSN, Brad Pitt in Dark Void, emails, homework
Kevin VanOrd stops by to talk about the inverted 720 faceplant that is Tony Hawk: Ride, then Ricardo Torres, Tom Mc Shea, Sophia Tong, and Brendan Sinclair look forward to the year-end awards, lament the apparent passing of Pandemic, and peruse the latest ESRB ratings.
