ChatterBox will be at the Penny Arcade Expo, and we need to find a contestant to represent us; Tips and Tricks magazine takes a dive; and Manhunt 2 is getting the pimp hand laid down on it even though it couldn't possibly be more violent than the original.
Is it OK to charge for an update that opens up on-line play? How about charging for downloadable content without really telling you what you're getting first? Alon and Rich complain that Ara perpetuates the very system about which he complains. We also talk about the Manhunt 2 "ban" which shows that a non-government agency gets to determine if a game can be sold - at least in the UK. We also determined the absolute best way to kill someone in a game. Finally, we talk a bit about Rock Band.
Ara and Alon talk about post mortems, the game development roadmap, and some of the hidden truth behind a game's development; Alon complains to Ara that he made The Red Star too difficult; and Rich tells us about Nintendo's amazing shrinking family.
Is it a bit crazy that selling a video game in New York is considered more dangerous than selling actual deadly weapons or drugs? Ara finally put some time into Oblivion and realizes that games that are too real provide a lot of opportunity to suck. Jack Thompson was going to participate in a debate at the Penny Arcade Expo, but he managed to be too much of a prick to make it happen - anyone surprised? Oh, and Rich tells us about Summa leaving Destructoid. Also, cocks.
Metal Gear Solid 4 is coming to the XBOX 360, but why does anyone care? Should you buy a PlayStation 3 when your XBOX 360 dies? Nintendo, the only real innovator - why can't anyone else do it?
