New stuff! We talk about S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: CALL OF PRIPYAT, BIOSHOCK 2, KURULIN FUSION and TATSUNOKO VS. CAPCOM. Old stuff! Pat Gann is grievously offended by CROSS EDGE, and I have the privilege of handing down the final word on MASS EFFECT 2. We also talk briefly about what makes an RPG an RPG, and we finish up our Winning Time of NO MORE HEROES. Thankfully. Students...

Because we were snowed in last week (as we might well be this week, if the relentlessly snowy forecast is accurate), we did the podcast over Skype for the first time. And with the help of a free app that insists on encoding to MP3 on the fly, we recorded a pretty darn good show. It’s hard to say what sounds better; our usual shows don’t sound nearly as...

Okay, guys! Happy Thursday! The show is late this week because I finally — finally — found a solution that lets me spy on you wonderful cretins. Well, not actually.

I mean, there’s MASS EFFECT 2, TATSUNOKO VS. CAPCOM and NO MORE HEROES 2: DESPERATE STRUGGLE to chew on this week. But that won’t keep us from throwing up a couple first...

Like an idiot, I promise at the top of this week’s show that we’ll be in and out in under an hour. Pfft. The show weighs in at about 100 minutes, owing largely to our collective groans about NO MORE HEROES. Don’t get me wrong. The game is novel and deserves to exist, but its mechanics are so outrageously poor so often that it’s hard to find...

So there’s a sequence in the second half of BAYONETTA in which the eponymous gun-toting giantess starts a motorcycle with a glowing middle finger. I just thought everybody should know about that. This week’s show is all about the aforementioned femme-brawler on the Xbox 360 and PS3, as well as DARKSIDERS, which reportedly is better on the PS3. Talking...
