The Geekbox: Episode 41

by Jon Cole in Games, Movies805 days ago

The Geekbox crew is down to three this week, but doesn’t disappoint with a good bit of focused games discussion.  Fitch starts off by asking if The Ballad of Gay Tony and Grand Theft Auto 4 in general are relevant to the current games space with Assassin’s Creed 2 and Uncharted 2 quickly becoming the high watermarks for 3rd person action games. Ryan Scott continues the conversation from The Gamespy Debriefings about Star Trek Online, because there have been a lot of negative responses to his preview.  Ryan Higgins has participated in the beta...

CO-OP – Episode 304: 3D or not 3D

by Jonathan Downin in Games823 days ago

The Ballad of Gay Tony starts this week’s episode. Tyler Barber is standing-in and giving his perspective on the latest and last GTAIV expansion. It looks like there are enough new things in the game to make it worth checking out, but this feels like one of those times when CO-OP may be a little too positive. Torchlight is up next and Arthur Gies joins Matt to discuss this Diablo-successor. They hit on the genre refinements that the game introduces, and express their surprise at the variety of the environments. This is a game that has been...

Rebel FM Episode 39 – 11/05/09

by Jonathan Downin in Games827 days ago

This week’s cast kicks off with Left 4 Dead 2, but quickly moves on to Modern Warfare 2 and the group, with guest Tina Sanchez, spend over 30 minutes discussing the various recent developments surrounding the game. The overall tone is rather negative, with the limits on the PC and Xbox multiplayer modes and the recent controversial video being cited. Tyler and Arthur both state they will not be picking up the game in light of these issues. Tyler has been playing GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony and has nothing but praise for the game. Borderlands...

Player One Podcast: Episode 158 – Castro the Friendly Ghost

by Jonathan Downin in Games831 days ago

First up is some sad news about a recent loss within the gaming community. Once the guys move on to game talk, Modern Warfare starts the conversation in relation to violence in games. We will all have to wait and see how Infinity Ward handles this in the game before making final judgments, but the guys offer some good, insightful discussion here. The DSi XL gets a fairly cool reaction here, much as it has everywhere else. The bottom line is, this is not for us. After a long absence, the Game Club segment makes a return with the Halloween inspired...

CastMedium Podcast 010 – 11.02.09

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies, Tech831 days ago

10 episodes in and still going strong. 1UP podcast news starts the cast off again this week with the at1UP interview with David Ellis about his new 4 Guys 1UP podcast, and the new RPG-centric Active Time Babble from Kat Baily and Jeremy Parish. There were a lot of happenings in games over the past week, and Jon kicks things off with his Torchlight experience, and Jeff Gerstmann level addiction to Borderlands. Erik gives the thumbs-up to GTAIV: The Ballad of Gay Tony, and we are all baffled by the disc-required Netflix PS3 announcement. Demon’s...

Game Scoop! Podcast, Episode 140

by Jonathan Downin in Games834 days ago

DJ Hero is the first topic up this week– again. The group discusses the forthcoming DLC for the game and then Greg touches on Band Hero, which he is in the midst of reviewing. Hilary recently reviewed GTAIV: The Ballad of Gay Tony and gave it a 9.2. He deems this the better of the 2 episodes and obviously enjoyed it. Greg talks about the announcement of Netflix coming to PS3 and states that it will only require a Netflix software disc to be in the drive for a few months before it is integrated into the XMB. Modern Warfare 2 has been in the...

Xbox 360 Fancast 118 — Pre-E3 Extravaganza: Part 2

by Jonathan Downin in Games988 days ago

The Zune HD news could be fairly big.  The guys speculate that the Xbox 360 video marketplace could just be rebranded as a way to tie the two together, but there have also been rumblings of XBLA going to the Zune.  This could promote an iPod App Store kind of environment for Zune and XBLA. The announcement of the follow-up GTAIV episode The Ballad of Gay Tony has cause quite a stir.  The title alone has caused a bit of an out-cry from the more closed-minded types and you have to give it Rockstar for always knowing how to get a response.  The...
