This week’s show brings you the past week in gaming news as well as an in-depth discussion of the lesser-mentioned effects that game resale shops have on developers’ decisions while creating the games we know and love.

Cool show again guys. I miss the background music from the very first show, it filled the blanks when no one was talking (”What’s next..?”).

Great show guys I think everything has really come together know. The what you’re playing segment has really grown on me I thinks its because I find it interesting as long as the games a current since there are so many games out there and I can’t possibly play them all. Thanks for the update on Huxley and I agree that I wouldn’t be shocked to see it pushed back but I would rather them delay it instead of relaesing an inferior product. My favorite part of the show has to be the talking point you guys always good topics for it and if you ever wanted to talk about it I thought it would be interesting to get your thoughts about trophies/achievements and their ability to extend a games replay value. By the way I’m glad Jason figured out that he was talking about Darkwatch because Mike had me totally pegged I was sitting at my computer yelling its Darkwatch like you guys would magically here me. Anyways can’t wait for the next show and keep up the good work.

Yeah the Spore stories are great - makes me wanna get the game, but my PC isn’t up for it and all I’ve got left is my Macbook, which I’ve heard bad stuff about regarding Spore…

I agree with what you said about Halo. I just hope that there will be a more obvious trailer next time!

I don’t understand why they’re coming out with the PSP 3000 and DSi. They should improve the battery life, not deminish it. It feels like they are taking a step back with the handhelds.

With all mobile phones now having a camera, the DSi’s camera will become useless. My p oint is, you take a phone whereever you go, but you don’t always take a portable with you. The camera probably isn’t going to be high quality either. The 3.25 inch screens are a plus though.
