Photo Bonus - Zombie 360

As additional apology for yesterday's podcast, here are photos of the Zombie 360 that was mentioned. Again, it flashes the red ring of death while still playing fine. Scary, huh? Turtles in Time last week, and Batman: Arkham Asylum this past week.





So, yeah. Next week's will be better. We promise*.

* We do not actually promise. We hope, though.

Episode 12

When Sticky unexpectedly doesn't show up and they themselves have very little to talk about, Boter and Claw are lost. They flounder for topics and hit upon topics of Batman: Arkham Asylum (with a spoiler warning) and various states of 360 death. Ghostbusters on the Wii and a quick comparison of 360 vs. PS3 comes up... and then just lots of grasping at straws for a topic, before giving up early and apologizing.

One more apology - when we switched seats and Claw sat closer to the mic, we didn't realize the volume difference. We promise not to do that next time. (And Boter's too lazy to tweak volume back and forth.)

Episode 11

This week, Boter and Claw talk Sony's PS3 developments and the 360 in the near future (Sticky was unable to come in and say "I told you so", but we were expecting him) and beat the dead horse of backwards compatibility and older games. Boter lists off releases for the next few weeks, leading to discussions about Guitar Hero 5 and Batman: Arkham Asylum as well as the Xbox Avatar Marketplace.

Episode 10

Microsoft has decided to celebrate the tenth episode of the Game Nutz Podcast by releasing the newest Xbox 360 update (hereby dubbed the Shiny Xbox Experience). They take a quick look at the slim PS3 rumor and discuss various impressive bits with music games. Jumping on the Activision Hate Bandwagon proves fun again, and Sticky loses track of what he talked about last week and talks about Fat Princess and 'Splosion Man. Meanwhile, Claw's been playing fighting games and has gotten re-addicted to Pokémon.

In the one concession to reaching double digits, the hosts each take a few minutes at the end to share their ideas about the idea of games eventually becoming accepted in the same fashion as movies, songs, and novels.

Episode 9

For Episode 9, Sticky tries to restore faith in his PS3 by talking about a couple games he's played for that, plus Wii Sports Resort, then they both talk about various downloadable games. Boter then discusses a couple rumors and the crew generally keeps it low-key while trying in vain to come up with something awesome for the next episode.
