Rebel FM — Indian Summer Spectacular

by Alex Martin in Games629 days ago

Arthur’s away for this week’s broadcast but Antony, Tyler, and Matt bring the usual Rebel FM mix of games and relationship advice. They start with the games they’ve been playing and Read Ded Redemption heads that list. The group compares it favorably to GTA IV and share stories of their wildlife encounters and beautiful sunsets. Another recent game set in the great American outdoors is Alan Wake and everybody except Tyler has finished it this week. They hold back discussion of the ending until Tyler can finish it, but they agree...

Mobcast 54: CO-OP on Co-op

by Alex Martin in Games634 days ago

Ryan O’Donnell and Cesar Quintero of Area 5 media, producers of CO-OP, are hosted by Bitmobbers Demian and Brett. Appropriately, the theme for this episode is co-operative gaming and Demian starts with his topic — games the panel only plays co-operatively. Some games are just better when you have friends there with you, like Phantasy Star Online, which Ryan seems to think is the same offline as on, but is transformed when your friends are there to check out your loot. Ryan has a cool idea — more games should have two-part weapons...

Weekend Confirmed Episode 8

by Alex Martin in Games637 days ago

Comedian Christian Spicer joins regular Confirmers of Weekends Garnett, Jeff, and Brian. (Billy has moved on to a new job at EGM.) This week Jeff’s been playing action RPG Nier, which is “more fun than it is good”. He and Garnett did not like Lost Planet 2 and the changes that were meant to address the first game’s flaws. Christian has mixed thoughts on ModNation Racers for the PSP, which isn’t optimized for the PSP’s analogue nub. Games they more whole-heartedly endorse include Skate 3, Super Street Fighter 4,...

Giant Bombcast 05-11-2010

by Derek Lavigne in Games640 days ago

This week’s Giant Bombcast has a couple of guests and starts off living up to the name of the show. Alex Navarro and Matt Rorie are there to announce that they have become part of the Whiskey Media family and will be a part of the new movie site Screened. Vinny brings things back to reality by saying how playing Wheelman sucked all the energy out of him, but turns it around by discussing his time with Ryan at Pixar. Jeff recently reviewed Skate 3 and seems to enjoy it, although he feels it may be more for hardcore Skate series fans. Brad runs...

CO-OP Live 303: Sooo Indie!

by Derek Lavigne in Games716 days ago

Another live show and the Area5 team keeps on improving week after week. First on the docket on this (mostly) indie game episode is the recently released The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom on XBLA. Like most of the game industry, CO-OP has nothing but praise for this game and Ryan plays some of it live for the viewers instead of relying on timing pre-recorded clips like the previous weeks. Overall opinions seem to be that it is a must buy for fans of puzzle games. A recorded segment is throw in next with Jason and Cesar discussing Skate 3, which...

Rebel FM Episode 40 – 111209

by Jonathan Downin in Games820 days ago

Arthur’s news of landing a job with Team Xbox starts the cast, and his first order of business will be writing the review for Assassin’s Creed 2. Dragon Age takes the limelight before Tyler touches on Captain Forever again after last week’s discussion of the free online game. The guys get into Modern Warfare 2, and Arthur has a few things to say about the now infamous airport scene. Anthony talks about the Civ-like Europa Universalis and things stay in the realm of strategy games with the recent Dawn of War II expansion. Anthony...

The HotSpot 09/22/2009

by Jonathan Downin in Games871 days ago

It’s a stripped-down cast this week with many of the GameSpot guys over in Japan for the Tokyo Game Show. Halo ODST is covered at length at the beginning with more praise for the campaign and “Firefight” multiplayer mode.  Everyone agrees that although it is basically a straight lift of “horde mode” in Gear of War, the AI and Halo gameplay make it a much more enjoyable experience. The Beatles: Rock Band gets some middling opinions here before the recent comments from Activisions CEO spark a discussion about franchises...
