Guitar Hero and Rock Band appear to be the leading genre in gaming.  According to analysts, they contributed to 32% of the industry….. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz wah? Oh sorry I forgot to give a shit.  See all this means is: Guitar Hero and Rock Band rip offs for the next 10 years. Lovely.

Remember Sony proudly announcing that ALL music instruments will work across ALL music games? Remember how I said it’s your move MS?  Well, MS says us too, only they say it as: We always were compatible, (See Rock Band 1 Guitar Hero IV) welcome to the party Sony!  BURN!

Coming tomorrow: Team Fortress 2 update on Heavy, and added Arena mode.  Does Valve EVER stop putting out free stuff?? Seriously, Orange Box is THE BEST VALUE EVER, and it’s a good set of games too!

One year and two months later, PS3 fans will finally get their hands on Bioshock, expected to arrive in North America on October 21st, Europe on October 24th.  If you only own a PS3, and haven’t played this game, you owe it to yourself to pick it up.  Please read NOTHING about the game.

Banjo Kazooe Nutz and Bolts hits November 14th.  Pre-orders get to download the classic Banjo game from Xbox Live Arcade two weeks before it comes out. Did I mention the game is only 40 bucks in the US?

Special last minute Rumors contributed by HeartBreakRidge.  Thanks! And FUCK YOU FOR DERAILING ME!

Thanks for listening!

As impossible as it may seem, Xbox 360 has beaten Playstation 3 sales in Japan.  Let’s not get our jets in an uproar though, it’s probably only for the one week.

1UP Posts the first official review of the 10 years in the making “Too Human”. Verdict? Not that good.

If reviews keep up like this, that little Canadian town is gonna become a wasteland.. so says Mr. Dennis Dyeck that is.

Galaga Legions hits Xbox Live Arcade this Wedsneday. Been a strong summer for Xbox Live Arcade.. I’m looking forward to this game… and maybe even…

The original Duke Nukem 3D is confirmed for XBLA release! Soon.. I’m either very excited or remorseful, I haven’t figured out the emotion yet.

Proving there CAN be peace in our time, Sony announces they have gotten Konami, EA, and Activision to play nice. Band Instruments for each of their respective games, will play on ALL their rival games.  Hey Microsoft? Ball’s in your court now it seems..

EA Reminds us that it’s tender offer to Take-Two expired on August 18th at Midnight.

Take-Two Reminds EA that they know, and they still didn’t care.

Demo for Star Wars: Force Unleashed hits PSN and Xbox Live on Thursday August 21st. I for one will be playing it till my hard drive gives out.

Alan Wake lives! So says a post by Remedy on thier official Alan Wake forums.  Hawkes says: I really really really really REALLY hope he does live.

Sony says: No price cut at Leipzig, we mean it, we’re not kidding, we’ll turn this car RIGHT AROUND if you keep on asking about it!

Real life sucks an elephants sack then gurgles with whale piss.

In short: no show tomorrow. No Gamehounds either. Seems I should never assume everything is going well enough to put an extra weight on my shoulder.

Anyhoot, show on Tuesday. For sure. Really!!

I hope.

Yes I’m still doing MGN. Sorry for the scattered shows this week. I had to work from home a lot.

We’ll resume normal programing starting Monday.

Thanks!!
