This crew continues their Game of the Year discussions this week. They go in depth on the major platforms (sans handhelds) and name individual winners. The selections are all solid but they are not without some controversy as Jeff and Chris form an alliance to pull off what may seem like an upset for one particular award.
The crew is back together and they sit down to decide their first batch of Game of the Year Awards. During the process Jeff nominates Epic Mickey for nearly everything except for best shooter and Red Dead Redemption comes up a lot.
Technical issues continue to plague the crew but they continue to soldier on. This week they get together to talk Epic Mickey, Donkey Kong Country, The Sly Cooper Collection, Dead Nation, Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time HD, the Noble Map Pack for Halo: Reach, Sons of Anarchy, Tangled, dark Disney, more Pac-Man Championship Edition DX this time on the PS3 and that is all in the first segment. They also cover some news, including Tiger Woods, Uncharted: The Movie, Halo: CE remake, the latest NCAA scandal, XBOX Rewards and close it out with some technical difficulties and a third cut of listener mail.
Every new show has its ups and downs and this week the crew has a bevy of issues from weird sounds, Fozzy trying to electrocute himself, and some editing issues Chris would rather not discuss anymore. They also manage to talk about Bayonetta, mold, Deadly Premonition, Lara Croft, Piranha 3D, Cop Out, Shank, Scott Pilgrim: The Game before heading into an awkward news segment where Tony and Fozzy literally stop paying attention as Jeff and Chris discuss The Walking Dead. The main topic of the show though is our most anticipated games of Holiday 2010, which oddly enough starts next week. We cover everything from Halo: Reach (the resounding consensus for most anticipated game) as well as talk a bit about Fallout: New Vegas, The Sims 3, Epic Mickey and a couple shooters from the two biggest publishers going.
