Gaming Podcast 129: My Walkman

This week is full of crazy energy. We seem to have gone 100% Sony on news chatter but we level that out with some great community feedback about our question of the week. We hit a little Burgertime action in our gaming flashback and bust through some Data East company history.

  • podcast-200x200Analyst says Sony Motion Control beats MS Natal
  • Sony dropping the PS3 price?
  • EA heading for a takeover?
  • Sony backing Home
  • Sony making a PSP Phone?
  • Sony Exclusives not anything great

This week we’re asking the question, what is your favorite end-boss in a video game from todays games to the past classics?

  1. You forgot to mention that the analyst who declared Sony’s wand “better” never tried the wand or Natal himself, and admitted he might be being a little fanboyish.

    Another note: you forgot to mention BurgerTime is considered one of the hardest arcade games… ever. There’s never enough pepper, and Peter Pepper moves extremely slow – and the boards make it very easy for Peter to be flanked with no hope of escape.
