It's the show that's called "Not Quite Episode 100!" We continue our lovefest for Forza 2 with new pics and new specs for fair cars to use in community races. There was a "major announcement" revealed at the Pac-Man World Championships and The Internets were stunned that it was related to Pac-Man - we talk about Pac-Man Championship Edition and what we like and don't like about it. Sony's sold lots of PS3's in Europe - over a million, in fact - but there still aren't many games to play on the system, only games to look forward to. We then take a look at the new CD "Best of the Best: A Tribute to Game Music" from GameMusicCentral.com, where we give our honest thoughts but also let YOU here a medley of the entire CD to make your own mind. There is ALSO a contest where YOU CAN WIN THE CD - but you HAVE TO LISTEN to find out how to enter! Then we take calls on game music, Forza 2, Pac-Man Championship Edition, and...more Forza 2 and Pac-Man. 99 down, hopefully many more to go...

Forza 2 came, saw, and kicked ass, with it's custom paintjobs - Respect the BANHAMMER! However, is the photo sharing too clunky and do in-game advertisers understand who they're advertising to? We get a different opinion about Super Mario Strikers for the Wii, contrary to our look last week. Nintendo's putting up their 100th game on the Virtual Console this week. There's also an unused chip in the Wii Remote - what will this mean for consumers down the line? Xbox Live Arcade's Mad Tracks had a nasty bug, but it's being patched. GameTap has announced the 24-episode action-adventure title American McGee's Grimm is coming in 2008. There are new Guitar Hero III videos out, and some of our fears are calmed, but new ones have opened. Then we have a discussion about the price of hardware, we take calls on the PSP Camera and user-sharable content, and talk about other random stuff the chat room comes up with.

For the second week in a row, we are homeless due to ISP issues, but we have a packed show for you anyway. We take a look at recently beaten Japanese RPG Enchanted Arms and talk about why the reviews may be misleading for some comsumers. Another PS3 firmware came out that added several much wanted features like upscaling, media sharing, and a much needed one regarding legacy game saves. We also talk about the Colin McRae: DiRT demo for the 360, and the best aspect of it - it's not what you think! Activision announced Guitar Hero III this week with new songs and introduced the tho9ught that you may need to buy a NEW controller to play. Is Microsoft trying to kill Shadowrun before it even releases with silly decisions, or will the game stand out on it's own and be a success in spite of the uphill battle being placed by the publisher? Kropotkin calls from the UK to gloat about having Super Mario Strikers and being able to play a Wii game online - until we hear about how the game actually plays online. Then we take callers about Atari 5200 prices (check AtariAge.com), game prices, hardware superiority, Forza 2, and a New York Times Crossword game for the DS.

The gremlins in the Internets took down our live radio stream 8 minutes into the show, however we used Ustream as a backup and have a shortened show for you. Is Xbox Live the downfall of guilty pleasures? We discuss the messages we got for playing a Japanese RPG during the week of the Halo 3 beta. Speaking of the beta, it was late, and the Internet imploded because of it. But in South Korea, Starcraft II was finally announced, and THAT country imploded from joy. Microsoft has banned saved games which have been shared (such as NCAA roster updates) as well as those who have hacked the DVD-ROM firmware - and boy, are the banned really pissed about it. Then we take a call discussing the graphical leap (or lack thereof?) between Halo 2 and Halo 3.

It's a special Mother's Day edition, and we begin by discussing our multiple disconnects in Catan, the Forza 2 demo, and the Halo 3 beta. To compete with Forza 2, Project Gotham Racing 4 dares to be "Dynamic." Microsoft says we shouldn't look at the failure rates of their consoles...And we thought only Sony was capable of dumb quotes. Wendy's is selling toys based on the Wii, but they're getting in trouble due to six degrees of seperation. Pinball FX's Extreme table has a warm place in people's heart - but still sucks. And then we talk about E3 which would have happened this week, and the alternatives that exist. We also take a call about the Half-Life 2 Orange Box and why Counterstrike: Source is not included.
