This week we’re pulling a 2-person shift while Don is away being sick and tired. We substituted his astute comments with extra epic insight… okay, we just did as best as we could without him. We flash back to Venture, we do an audio review of Zuma’s Revenge and we kicked it free style with some news:
Halo: ODST Reviews are in- Turbine working on an MMO for the console
- Price Cuts boost sales, initially, but not over the long term
- Infinity Ward Responds to Gearbox … sort of
- Red Octane considering Natal controls
This week’s question of the week, can big companies still innovate with new games?
