Episode 20

The second portion of this week's Podcast double header is the official Game Nutz Podcast Episode 20. Which Sucks Less discusses the PSP-3000 vs. the PSP Go. After that, apparently intent on making Boter's tagging job easier, Sticky talks about Modern Warfare 2, Claw talks about New Super Mario Bros. Wii, and Boter gets a word in edgewise about Empire 2.0 (whose name he forgot in the podcast itself).

Fillercast 2

As Claw got this in about half a week late, and Boter was still recovering from his trip, last week's Fillercast makes the first part of a Game Nutz Podcast double header this weekend! Give a listen as FearTheClaw, Schnazzy and Orlan Drake talk about Modern Warfare Reflex Edition on the Wii, Facebook on the 360, and some creative uses for the PS3. They then talk about Nintendo news and rumors and spend the last few minutes raging about the decision of DS Lite over DSi for Which Sucks Less a few weeks back.

Episode 19 PS - Corporate Giant Hate

In what was originally going to be a small three-to-five minute rant, Boter (with a little bit of FearTheClaw thrown in) rages about Activision allowing GameStop to break street date on Modern Warfare 2 (which was later denied by Activision, as told in the PPS to this PS), making ample use of the new censor bleep for curses. It ran a bit long, but it's worth a listen for the point of view of an independent shop on unfair competition from national retailers.

Total number of bleeps: 13, just under one per minute. Direct link to Boter's comment (warning: language).

Episode 19 - Ultimate Flamebait Edition

In a special 45 minute episode of the Game Nutz Podcast, the crew skips ahead on the Which Sucks Less schedule so that Boter can participate in the Ultimate Flamebait Edition - Xbox 360 Elite vs. PlayStation 3 Slim. Who will win? Listen to find out!

After that, it's been a couple of busy news weeks and the crew talks about Modern Warfare 2, Assassin's Creed: Lineage, and the Nintendo DSi XL. They wrap up the massive amount of topics with a dense burst of Halo and finally sign off.

R.I.P. Art Starkweather. We'll all miss you.

Quickcast 1: DSi XL and a Note on Punctuality

Without a "real" episode this week, Boter signs on for a couple minutes for a "Quickcast", dropping the news of the new DSi XL, as well as explaining why we aren't always able to drop podcasts every Saturday night.

See you next week with a real episode!
