Game Snitch Radio ep. #4

Another week, another episode. This week we talk about… Sony to lose $1 billion on PS3, Xbox 360 HD-DVD player in 2006?, Xbox 360 games and console sales, Bungies next game playable, WoW hits 5 million subscribers,Man trading his girl friend for an Xbox 360, Final Fantasy XI beta coming to US, Gamer electrocutes himself, Xbox 360 scalpers robbed, Animal Crossing Wild World review. Also Fat’s WoW minute and Moon’s Kingdom Hearts update.

We also we have a guest that shows up near the begining of the animal crossing review, our friend Edwards A.K.A E-Lardo. And I finally figured out what was making that high pitched noise in the background of the previous podcasts, it was my TV, who would have thunk it. Apparently when it’s on it screws with the mic becasue i’m about 1 1/2 feet away from it. So you won’t notice it until later when Fat tells me to turn on the TV then i turn it off later. Problem solved. Enjoy

Animal Crossing review coming

Just received Animal Crossing from Game Fly today, So you can expect a review in the next podcast. It’s pretty damn good so far. And so I don’t have to bring this up later, if all goes well and I actually get a Xbox 360 soon you can expect reviews of some kind for Perfect Dark Zero, Kameo, Project Gotham Racing 3, Call of Duty 2 and Condemned some time after Christmas. Looks like I got a lot of “work” ahead of me.

King Kong Review

Whoa King Kong must have been great becasue I already finished a roughly 3 page review of it, despite the fact that I have a goverment report about a week past due, anyways I’ll put the review in the comments because it’s too long. Not sure if anyone actually wants to read it but hey it’s there.

King Kong!!

Just went out to see King Kong today and it was great, I might put up my review because i have to do one anyway for my film class so if you care it should be here … well probably a few days after it’s due.

Get to know your Spartan

Bungie has a feature up detailing the back story behind Spartan 458 “Nicole”. She is a big lady “6′ 8″ /370 lbs” and thats out of the suit, thats a whole lot of women.

New Double Agent screens

A few new screens of SC Double Agent have been released, keep in mind that this is current gen (probably Xbox) so as great as this looks it will look even better on the 360 and I’m guessing the PS3 will have a version as well. Looks like this will be one hell of an adventure I’m really excited how there really putting a lot of innovation into the story, the first 3 were “military games” no matter how you slice it but so far in Double Agent you start in a prison and find your self repelling down a icey cliff.

The Show was kind of long namely because of the Kingdom Hearts portion, it was ok but in the future it will be shorter and more time spent talking on the news, this time of year news is fairly hard to come by so until after the holidays it will be less exciting than it could be, so bear with us.

Noise-B-Gone

Me and Moon (mostly me) figured out how to get rid of the annoying as hell high pitch sound in the background of the podcast, the problem hopefully wasn’t coming from Fat’s mic and coming from the compression like I changed. Anyway tune in sometime tomorrow or the day after for episode 3, hopefully all works well.

Episode #2 updated

After a week of sitting and scratching my head as to why the iTunes feed of the show hasn’t updated but after just simply going to edit the post (not changing anything) and publishing it again it updated immediately, so go figure. Just in time for the next episode, hopefully taping tuesday, there ya go.

Lost Planet trailer

Capcom released a trailer for there (at the moment) 360 only game, Lost Planet. All i could gather from the trailer is that a guy who has amnesia has a bracelet that can absorb thermal energy and they have to fight giant bug creatures from mechs. I’m not one for mech games but this looks pretty cool. Graphics look impressive, supposing that it’s all real time. I’ll let you check it out your self and comment on what you think. Oh, one more thing the game is apparently “Staring by Lee Byung-Hun” no hes not casting it hes the star, any way i guess he is some sort of actor from Japan.
