Game Scoop! dodges a typical episode and picks back up this week with a special, Comic-Con Wrap-Up with Daemon, Hilary, and Greg. Starting things off, Hilary tosses out the disclaimer that most of what they saw at the conference was actually also shown long before their first public appearance, so their enthusiasm is a little deflated.
Daemon got a chance to check out Dead Rising: Case Zero and isn’t quite impressed with the whole thing. Luckily, Greg reports in that the downloadable prequel will cost 400 MSP and will contribute to your kill-count in the full game, which is a little easier to swallow than the possibility of a $10 price point that they assumed in the past.
After diving briefly into Dead Space 2, the guys talk about their experiences watching Scott Pilgrim vs The World and Walking Dead. Back into games, Street Fighter x Tekken is clearly one of the more interesting announcements, though the guys only saw a video of the SF engine variant.
The show closes out with Daemon’s Comic-Con Knockin’ Boots experience and a listener KB question.
Covered games and topics: Hydrophobia, Halo: Reach, Dead Rising: Case Zero, Dead Space 2, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, Walking Dead, Street Fighter X Tekken, DC Universe, Knockin’ Boots

Nice Podcast!. Really interested to know more about that Hydrophobia game!. Had a bit of a search around and games website has a nice selection of shots and videos!.
400MSP for the Dead Rising 2 levell thing….i'm not too sure about…but maybe it's just an extended Demo in a sense…give you more to get to to buy the full version rather than trying to get enough gameplay squessed into a Demo…hmmmm
