Giancarlo starts the game talk with Halo: Reach. Like many others in the press, Giancarlo had a chance to check out the beta last week and he spills the details here. Justin touches on his time with the latest Monster Hunter Tri. He is not traditionally a Monster Hunter fan, so his comments are most relevant to those who are in the boat.
Super Street Fighter 4 is getting a lot of buzz, and the guys seem to feel like it is a worthy follow-up. Justin talks about FIFA 11 and then the group moves on to news with Xbox sales numbers and a discussion about the longevity of the current generation in light of the forthcoming motion controllers.
The regular stable of HotSpot features finish the show.
Covered games and topics: Halo: Reach, Monster Hunter Tri, Super Street Fighter 4, FIFA 11, Xbox sales, Xbox Live TV channel, Tony Hawk Shred, 10 years ago, emails/voicemails, homework
The HotSpot experiences what we’ll call a trundling week, as Ricardo Torres, Giancarlo Varanini, Justin Calvert, and Tom Magrino talk at great length about Halo: Reach, Super Street Fighter IV, Monster Hunter Tri, and something called…soccer? Also, do you want to be a social maven? If so, have we got some hot conversation starters for you! (Hint: Think earnings reports.) Brendan’s back next week! Probably!
