There aren’t that many games covered this week, but the games that are, get a serious amount of time. Mass Effect 2 kicks things off, and the guys are not shying away from spoiler, but David does announce the time-stamps before the spoilers begin. It sounds like a lot has changed from the first one, and the tech is much improved.

Heavy Rain also gets a ton of time since Matt has played a significant amount of the game. The games seems somewhat divisive, but it may just culminate into something truly fresh.

With the 2 big games out of the way, the crew moves onto some smaller releases, and then gets into a big discussion about Splinter Cell Conviction. The talk gets almost overly in-depth on Sam Fisher’s latest, and the show closes on Red Dead Redemption. The 1st two discussions are the draw here, but beware of spoilers.

Covered games and topics: Mass Effect 2, Heavy Rain, Battlefield Bad Company 2, No More Heroes 2, Bayonetta, Splinter Cell Conviction, Red Dead Redemption

Games, dammit! That’s the mantra this week as we talk almost too many titles to list. We go two segments deep with Mass Effect 2 (one spoiler free) and find out if Matt Leone or David Ellis would make a better digital parent. Then we follow that up with exploitation central via No More Heroes and Bayonetta. Finally we round out the show with tales of Splinter Cell Conviction Co-op and Red Dead Redemption.
