at1UP: 09/22/2009

by Jonathan Downin in Games969 days ago

This is an extra long and extra fun episode of at1UP. Scooter and Tina join the skeleton crew of Mike and Travis and it’s a great mix. The latest 1UP cover story is focused on No More Heroes 2. Scooter had a chance to interview Developer Suda 51 about the game a procured some nice swag which Tina will be giving away in an upcoming contest. Dead Space Extraction, which is tonight’s 1UP Game Night game, starts a hilarious discussion about franchises that could have good on-rails entries. A lot of topics are covered this week, but as usual,...

The HotSpot 04/14/2009

by Jonathan Downin in Games1130 days ago

Wii Motion Plus is a big topic this week.  It really is what the Wii remote should have been in the first place and as a peripheral does it really have a chance for wide adoption?  A good point is made that Wii Play, along with Guitar Hero and Rock Band have changed the conception that peripherals won’t sell. Six Days in Fallujah continues to cause a stir here.  Konami seems to be pushing the accuracy and realism of the setting and context of the game while making the gameplay mechanics completely “gamey.”  It doesn’t...

TalkRadar 39

by Jonathan Downin in Games1183 days ago

Another addition to the site in GamesRadar’s TalkRadar.  This was supposed to be added a couple weeks ago, but someone around here was slacking off. The vibe here is quite a bit different from many other game casts around.  The topics skew a tiny bit more casual with top 7 lists off the top and they always have music in the back with sound effects interspersed.  Think The HotSpot with less hard-hitting discussion and more ridiculousity. The guys aren’t the greatest at keeping their podcast page up to date or having the iTunes feed...

Listen UP – 02/20/2009

by Jonathan Downin in Games1183 days ago

Flower is quickly becoming a media darling.  No matter their opinion almost everyone seems to be able to appreciate the game on some level. There isn’t much more to be said about Halo Wars.  Some like it, some don’t, but nobody seems to really love it or really hate it.  Sounds like one to wait until it hits $40. Quite a few interesting points brought up as to how Rockstar could make GTA fresh and really fun again.  The zombie idea is definitely interesting, but are zombies getting played out?  No way.  The use of GTA as platform...

Joystiq Podcast 086 – MC Trustworthy edition

by Jonathan Downin in Games1183 days ago

Holy muffled Justin, Spiderman. Chris has a mostly positiveness take on Halo Wars.  Justin, as many other out there, is frustrated with the periodic downtime and  lack of consistent action. Another polarizing game this week is Spiderman: Web of Shadows.  Justin has liked almost every Spiderman game and in recent years and that trend continues whereas Ludwig isn’t too keen on it. The prospect of a new American McGee’s Alice is pretty interesting.  A lot of people probably don’t remember or never played the first one, but if...

Nintendo Voice Chat Podcast, Episode 37

by Jonathan Downin in Games1185 days ago

The IGN Nintendo guys missed their regular Monday release, but that was so they could talk about this morning’s announcement that the DSi will be released on April 5th at $169.99. At the first news of Dead Space coming to Wii many were apprehensive about the prospect.  After hearing that it will be an original game and seeing the trailer it looks like it could be really good, even though it is on rails. Mario & Luigi 3 is coming out this year.  That’s fine, but just give us a new New Super Mario Bros!  The first one was incredible! We’ve...
