G4tv.com getting canned? And Animal Crossing/Mario Kart :D

[Blackwolf]

Gaming industry gossip. You rule at that stuff.

I'm afraid to hear Scot talk about Animal Crossing, tho.

He wouldn't talk about that unless he went hands on with it right? Don't you remember the don't listen to anybody who hasn't played a 360 on HD speech. He wouldn't talk about, or bash something he has no experience with, say the like Revolution, or AC. :D

To 2nd Blackwolf, game industry news would be cool.

[Reffy]

I agree with Blackwolf, Game industry gossip is really quite cool. Personaly I'd like to see some discussion on the wars between industry giants Intel vs AMD and Nvidia vs ATI. Why has the competition been shunk to only two competitors and what does this mean for the industry? Can they keep on competeing like this? Which one will come out on top, if any?

A great topic, imo.

I would like to hear Scot's take on the SpikeTV Video Game Awards which aired last weekend.

Discuss something about when you think the release of new console's will begin to slow down. 4-5 years isn't that short of a time period, but eventually I don't think consoles will be able to be released this fast. Maybe instead of graphics, they add something else to it in a few years (like HD-DVD player or something) and try sucking 6,7,8 years out of a single console.

Next week we can discuss how The_Raven failed all us DS owners in showing an argument. Way to freeze on the air, bruddah. >:[

I don't think anything he said would have mattered. Either you get the DS or you don't, and the likelyhood of explaining to someone who doesn't isn't good.

I like the touch screen, because it actually makes me "feel" more into the game. I'm very happy that the screen is holding up too. Given how many PS2 controllers (yeah, I know they are the crappiest of all consoles) I've killed, broken shoulder buttons and analog sticks snapping, I was a bit worried I'd kill the screen to.

The games themselves, as most Nintendo games are fun. Very open ended, play how you want, train things or make a world to suit yourself.

The wifi is very easy to set up and use. I've only had one issue, can't connect to The Raven, but I just noticed last night that could be an ACWW issue, since we raced a few times in MK. I experienced less lag on Nintendo wifi, than I did in both CoH and WoW.

That being said, I'm eagerly awaiting Zane's call in to set Scot straight.

As for this weeks show. The G4TV.com segment was great. Told very well, I may have to listen to it again when I can dl it.

[TigerClaw]

The G4TV.com segment was great, Scot was finally able to open up about what really went on durring the making of that show and it showed how slowly the show itself was going on a downward spiral.
