Abandon hope, all ye who enter here. This episode we talk ad infinitum about the straight plethora of games we’ve been playing. Among these are Mass Effect 2, Dante’s Inferno, Bioshock 2, Assassin’s Creed 2, Burnout Paradise, Starcraft 2 Beta and 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand. There may be mention of Borderlands and MMOs, but it’s minimal.
As always we finish up with our value pick games. Come for the fun but stay for the value.
NQcast06 – ‘Abandon Hope’ Show Notes
First half!
- Hopscotch, Jacks & NBA Jam: TE (the classics never die!)
- Borderlands (don’t worry, we set a 4-minute limit on Borderlands discussion.)
- 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand (BJ’s box quote: “An intellectual masterpiece.”)
- Burnout Paradise (BJ is now officially elite!)
- Guild Wars (Is it an MMO or not?)
- Mass Effect 2 (Maki spends WAY too much time to have not beaten it yet)
- Resident Evil 5: Lost In Nightmares (It’s like RE1 in RE5!)
- “Exclusive” DLC (We all agree it sucks, especially when you can’t get it anymore)
- Batman Arkham Asylum (Crippling dudes is like riding a bike!)
- BioShock 2 (More of the same is not really a good thing, sadly)
- Assassin’s Creed 2 (Harlo faces his enemy and sees what the sequel to his “worst game ever” is like!)
Second Half! (50:54)
- Dante’s Inferno (Harlo melds with hell while BJ fishes for box quotes)
- Starcraft 2 Beta (Are we over RTS? Or are we just over getting raped by a Korean man?)
- Steam UI Beta (Maki breaks it within 60 seconds, BJ waits for the Ubuntu version)
- Star Trek Online (Don’t worry, it’s the MMO speed round)
Value Game Picks! (1:23:56)
- Dead Rising (Maki still enjoys killin’ zombies!)
- Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection (Harlo says it’s more than just Sonic games!)
- 50 Cent: Blood On The Sand (BJ claims it’s better than Avoid The Noid!)
