Christmas Game Releases 2008.

In light of the avalanche of games heading our way in October and November this year we did an episode focusing on each week of release, and the choices we have to make.

Pretty much every important Q4 release is discussed (Except Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King, which we forgot.)

Let me tell you folks, this Christmas is going to drain your wallets dry, BUT the games themselves look absolutely kickass so it WILL be worth it in the long run.

Metallica/Too Human/Soul Calibur IV/Merceneries 2.

To combat the rambling nature of recent shows we’ve streamlined this week so there’s minimal wandering off on tangents and instead we strike straight at the heart of the games to give you swift, concise reviews.

So Paul discusses the new Metallica album, released as DLC for Guitar Hero, Tony talks Too Human and Alex reveals whether Merceneries 2 rocked his world.

Also discussed are Soul Calibur IV, price cuts for the 360 and an awesome album we’ve been listening to recently.

SNES Special.

We’re back! After two weeks up to his arms in baby business, Alex returns refreshed and ready for more DC action.

What better way to start the first of his episodes broadcasting as a father than  to focus on the console that so many folks recall most fondly from their childhood; The Super Nintendo Entertainment System.

Paul’s back too, after a month off to move and relax. He’s been playing many a music rhythm-action game and has a juicy snippet of news about Rock Band 2 to confer.

And of course, faithful, lantern-jawed Tony is here as always to join in with the many stories and tidbits of information on this most hallowed console.

As a result of the podcast, Alex went out and bought a SNES, so be warned, you may find yourself cruising ebay, hungry for 16-bit goodness.

(Note. Alex mentions the construction of a picture of a man in a SNES joypad costume for this weeks episode. the result was so freakish, he destroyed it out of fear and anger and went with the far more tasteful image you see above. It’s better this way.)
