Podcast Episode # 36 - Romper Room [38:08m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

It’s time for another episode of the podcast. This week we’re looking at new game title from a well known franchise and we look at three TV shows for the fall season; two that are returning and as well as a brand new series that’s been getting a lot of buzz.

• Halo 3 ODST
• Heroes Season 4
• Dollhouse Season 2
• the premiere of Flash Forward

Let us know what you thought of ODST and the new TV premieres in the comments.

Halo 3 ODST

This trailer has absolutely nothing to do with the gameplay or anything about the game for that matter. But personally, I’m now excited as hell to check this out. While I liked Halo 3 a lot, it still kind of felt like something I had already played before. Retelling the story from the ODST’s perspective could a unique way to shake the franchise up.  And just how bad ass could this look as a full length film?

Assassin’s Creed 2

We’re going to be looking at Assassin’s Creed 1 in a future episode of the podcast but in the meantime we’re getting a look at what part 2 could look like. The music choice isn’t something I wouldn’t picked but I gotta admit its pretty damn sweet. And hang gliding? Yes please!

GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony

I’m digging these expansion pack releases that Rockstar is doing for GTA IV. It expands on the already expansive universe of the game but doesn’t charge us $60 a pop each time a new one comes out. In this episode, you play as Luis Lopez who works as a body guard for Gay Tony, an operator of a couple of nightclubs in Liberty City. No word on what new gameplay features are going to be introduced but I do see me some parachutes! Thie episode will be available October 29 a download on Xbox Live Arcade or as part of the Episodes from Liberty City bundle.

As discussed in the episode, we have a couple of clips. One is of Alive in Joburg which is the short film which District 9 is based on. And the second is some clips Neill Blomkamp put together in preparation for the Halo movie that almost happened. Enjoy!
