Tech-Gaming Technology, Gaming, and Culture
Harmony is in the air as age-old rivals DesertEagle and SeanNOLA diplomatically discuss their impressions of Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, Spelunker HD, Donkey Kong Country Returns, EA Sports Active 2, the Marvel Tables for Pinball FX2, Epic Dungeon, as well as return to the lush landscapes offered by Riviera: The Promised Land, Rune Factory 2: A Fantasy Harvest Moon. As always, expect some brain-busting game trivia as well as insightful answers to listener mail.

Just over an hour? I’ve been robbed!
USC is in Pasadena? Thats news to me.
LOLing at the podcast image this week.
Deagle’s hosting? oh noes!
I heard Deagle actually flip the coin for heads or tails. Nice.
Looking up Epic Dungeon right now. I guess I try the demo but the graphics look really weak.

Is it live yet? Now showing up on the iTunez.
Thanks for reminding me I need to get DKCR. I like to torture myself.
You’d need three buttons for DKCR. One to ground pound/blow.
Just saying.
HAHA. Who said that?
I’ll d/l later and listen during the weekend. Hopefully, we’ll see a full Donkey Kong Country review.
Why are some people saying the Marvel Tables or Pinball FX 2 is free? Am I missing something?
oh gawd, Riviera is awful. I don’t see how you can like that game.
I appreciate the Rune Factory 2 references. Now give us feedback on the third.
Nice F-bomb at 12:45
Totally agree.
Videos of you playing EA Sport Active or you’re lying.
Did the new patch go live?
Have you actually played it? Like Deagle mentioned, once you play it your reaction may change.
Its the same. Trust me.
You guys need a trivia song that you play before that past of the show starts.
So a new person next week?
I thought he did a pretty good job, I’m just used to Adam.
What do you have against Farmville? It’s just like Harvest Moon/Rune Factory right?
not the best show ever. Maybe next week’s new talent will make it better.
I asked for DKCR returns for Christmas. I know I’ll keep my Nintendo games for years.
Pretty good show so far. Lots of game talk.
I never understood why PS3 people don’t use their mics. At first it was because they didn’t come with the system, but now everyone I know has a bluetooth (even the janitor at school).
No interview this week? What gives?
Give your PS3 name to the janitor- problem solved!
This is what years of adventure games have taught me.
Beyond raising crops, they’re not all that much alike.
Is that a reference to NOLA’s love of Monster Hunter? What game has monsters that farm?
What are you guys hating on Bejeweled 3?
One question- have you guys ever tried Maple Story? What did you think?
Where’s Karnov this week?
I surprised you guys stayed mature in his absence.
whatcha talking about? I bought and played it this morning!
…boobies.
That looks like a Deagle game.
I just played the demo twice then bought it. Cool little game.
Thats Rune Factory.
Hey SNOLA, why are you the big burly mustached man and Desert’s the man/girl JRPG thing????
I can just see TideGear slowly shaking his head in shame at that comment.
Kind of a short one this week. I burned through it in a day.
I played through it twice. It’s pretty fun. But like STING’s stuff, it’s an acquired taste.
Deagle, where do you have time to play all these games?
Are you going to review it?
I get all kind of dirty ass heavy breather on PSN. I always thought it was overly sensitive bluetooth earpieces.
Question for next cast. Is Pokemon really over?
According to Yahoo it is-http://shine.yahoo.com/event/holidayguide/20-toy-fads-we-cant-believe-we-bought-into-2415843/#photoViewer=1
Dude, Legos is one of those toys. What a freakin’ troll. SNOLA will be mad that Bakugan was included.
