In this episode, PB and Jason goes where it's never gone before. Where? You'll have to listen and find out.
Four Spider-Men are better than one.
It seems that each and every year a new Spider-Man game is released, and every year that Spider-Man game seems to be a disappointment. My last exposure to a Spider-Man game was Spider-Man 2, which featured open-world exploration and tasks. The game controlled well and was moderately enjoyable, but the structure was a bit too loose, causing the game to eventually become tedious and boring. Shattered Dimensions, the latest Spider-Man game, is quite the opposite. For the first time ever, the essence of Spider-Man has truly been captured through the game's characters, levels, presentation, and solid gameplay.
It may be a few days late, but the latest issue of PB&Jason is certainly worth your money!
In the newly christened PB & Jason, issue #2, Jason talks about the Playstation Move. In fact, Jason says everything he can about the Playstation Move. He could even tell you more than you could ever want to hear about the device. In short, he details his impressions, then goes down the list of titles with reviews, impressions, and information available from a few various online gaming news sites, like IGN, 1up, and Kotaku.
Twisted Metal is back and it looks better than ever.
In my opinion, Sony's biggest surprise of E3 was the reveal of Twisted Metal for the PlayStation 3. I've enjoyed the series in the past, and a new entry in the series is quite welcome as it has been dormant for far too long.
Chris and Jason Ross interview Tommy Tallarico about Video Games Live.
Chris and I were given the opportunity to catch an interview with Tommy Tallarico to talk about Video Games Live and the upcoming Concert this Thursday night. Tune in to hear how music is selected, if old game music ever dies, even where you can buy Video Games Live sheet music and more in our unedited podcast version of the interview.
Despite being a team, Doctors at Resurgam First Care have opted not to wear numbered jerseys. Gooooo Team!
To describe Trauma Team in one word, I'd have to say it's "inconsistent." Parts of the game, I felt were incredible, top-notch video game experiences, while at other points, the game's story and gameplay felt clumsy and cumbersome. Trauma Team falls in line with prior Trauma Center titles in most gameplay, adding two investigative modes, Diagnostics and Forensics. Each mode focuses on a different practice of medicine, and including the aforementioned two, there's also a Surgery, Emergency Response, Endoscopy, and Orthopedics section, creating a diverse selection of game play modes.
The organization will aim to teach responsibility and teamwork through the new awards.
The Boy Scouts announced plans for video game based awards today, in a move geared to teach members of the organization many responsible ways to play games and work together. The Boy Scouts will require their willing Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos Scouts to manage a few different tasks in order to receive the award, all geared toward safe and constructive gaming.
