Chris from Retrocore joins us this week as we talk about a bunch of old series with new titles, including Soul Caliber 5, Twisted Metal and Syndicate. We also further explore the Online Pass hoopla, discuss THQ’s deepening troubles, as well as Jessica Chobot’s perceived conflict of interest. Most importantly though we name our game of January after trying to decipher Jeff’s plans for the segment.
Oh and we TRY to bring the sunshine this week, but as with everything we do they are delivered with mixed results.
This week is loaded with news discussion, including Nintendo’s further financial woes and Microsoft’s rumored attempt to eliminate used game sales. They also hit on Quarrel, Zack Zero and some “retro” titles before veering off course into more parenting discussion by Jeff.
This week Fozzy drinks himself into complete blackness while the rest of the guys talk inFAMOUS2, Jeff’s new 3DS, Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet and Madden 12 before covering the week’s biggest gaming news like the announcement of a new Rambo game. The guys also answer a special hypothetical from Tony because Fozzy’s brain was dark and the answers might surprise you.
