The longest title recorded on the books, let’s hope it fits! 🙂 This week we covered the gaming history for Adventures of Lolo and a bit about HAL Labratory all in honor of a new game we recently purchased to play with our kids: Kirby’s Epic Yarn. So far so good, our son is enjoying 2-player mode with us. This week we did an on-the-spot mini-review breakdown of Kirby’s Epic Yarn while hitting up some gaming news including:
- STEAM SURPASSES 30 MILLION ACCOUNTS
- Epic thinks Nintendo 3ds is not on par with iPhone 3GS
- Kinect Director puts foot in his mouth
- Microsoft uses Angry Bird icon without permission
- Blizzard is suing Starcraft hackers
Of course, a special thanks for Herr Alien and all his news posts this week, we got a bunch of them into the show. This week’s question o’ the week, what musician/group would you like to see featured in a video game and what genre would fit them?

Paul is back for this episode, as this week actually has a Gaming Flashback and a Game History, the former being Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, and the latter being Black Isle Studios.
The news this week includes:
- Followup: PS Vita Slim to launch in UK
- Reports: Microsoft plans cheaper, disc-free, white Xbox Ones in 2014

- Square Enix responds to Final Fantasy XV and Kingdom Hearts III launch rumor

The Question of the Week, “What was the best game you played that you felt was unfinished?”
Episode 626: New Mic, New WorldEpisode 626: New Mic, New World
The new mic used for the episode has improved the audio by a factor of 1,000. In fact, Episode 625’s audio is so bad, it’ll take a lot of effort to make it even bearable, so it won’t be published for a while.
In the meantime, the new Amazon MMO New World has made a giant splash, but is it worth dipping your toes in, especially since it costs $40 to buy? Meanwhile, the frustrations T.J. has as a PlayStation 5 owner come to the fore.
This week’s news includes:
- New World goes live in North America
- 343 makes Halo Infinite’s next multiplayer preview available to everyone on Xbox
- Civilization 6 modder has brought back upgradeable throne rooms and palaces
- Sony: Still many PS5 features to add
