For those of you good at math, you might notice that the TD Gaming Podcast is one episode away from a special number. While we have a surprise in store for loyal listeners, there’s still this week’s news to discuss. For starters, the classic Silent Hill 2 is the subject of the Gaming Flashback, even though none of the podcasters have gotten a chance to actually play it.
There’s also some interesting news to discuss, including:
- Christian group accuses The Old Republic of “warping kids” with pro-gay message
- Rumor: Next Harmonix project being released on XBLA, PSN, and Facebook
- EA Sports: SSX will bring extreme sports videogames back to prominence
- Xbox 720 rumors springing up like wildfire
- PS Vita continues to struggle in Japan
- SNK brings Neo*Geo back as a handheld
There’s plenty of Reader Feedback, but there’s no Question of the Week, because there’s a special episode coming up. Ooooh, what could it possibly be?

This week we read off some of our Audience Survey Dislikes and requests while plowing through some great community comments. We self-analyze Don to see if he’s really a freak based on some community feedback while tackling some news:
Nintendo Making Users Pay for Wii Hacks- Champions Online Coming July 14th
- Guild Wars Reaches 6 Million Units Sold
- Texas Trying to Entice Game Developers
We’re also taking a flashback peak at Return to Pirate Island and a bit of history on Scott Adams, the interactive fiction game developer (not the Dilbert guy). This week’s question is a reverse take on last weeks, thanks to Jonah Falcon: What games did you give up on, due to difficulty, despite wanting to see how it ended?

Unfortunately, we had to skip a week despite recording a good podcast thanks to technical difficulties – don’t worry, we’ll air it at some point in the near future. It was a good episode. This episode had its own issues, as Jonah was unable to record the podcast at home, so he was outside in the New York City night air podcasting with TJ and Scott.
This week’s news includes:
- Microsoft cancels Fable Legends, closes Press Play Studios, considers shuttering Lionhead Studios UK
- Report: SpinTires developer sabotaged his own game
- 10 months later, MAME finishes its transition to open source
- Valve announces The Lab, a compilation of free VR “experiments”
