Sup guys,Big thanks for the shout out man,I totally wasn’t expecting it,
Another interesting show as well,I am like both of you again in the fact I am not a sports game fan but I have played a few of them but just couldn’t get into them,I do agree its a really cool and impressive event that EA is throwing
I heard about that Midway losing people as well a few weeks ago,Its a shame really,They have been around for ALONG time and has a pretty good rep with the MK series and what not,I would hate to see them tank being this far in the game
The last few movies I watched was “21″ and “The Bank Job”. 21 was a really good movie but The bank Job was extremly boring and I was really surprised of that considering the Action that Jason Stathelm (?) has been know for and I am a hugh fan of his but I honestly did not like the movie.
Games I been playing (PS3) is Soul Calibur 4,Bad Company,MGS 4,Siren blood curse,And Uncharted<-
–again got 100% trophies on it)
PC I am playing Cod 2 and 4 ,And some TF2
just thought Id add alittle to what yall were talking about
But again guys great podcast and will be back to catch the next one as soon as its up.
WOW!!
I WASN’T EXPECTING A SHOUT OUT.THANK’S MAN.
I don’t know if other people get mad if you go off topic but i think it makes the show even more interesting.look at it this way.the hiphopgamershow is about gaming news but he goes off topic and turns to hip-hop.i don’t like hip-hop but other people do and it probably makes his show more popular to.
Just curious, but what made you think im a Sony fan?your right im a Sony fan but not a fanboy.the 360 has great online but has a big failure rate and the ps3 has a very low failure rate but the online isn’t up to par compared to 360.their are great games for both systems.there are ups and downs for both systems.
GREAT SHOW YOU GUYS.
humanbones: thanks for participating in the “discussion”
kratos: what made me think that? your name is “kratos”
@lee yi
kratos is for a god of war game though not a sony game system.i guess that made you think that because sony made that game.i don’t know.
i always thought you could figure out what type of fan someone is by the system itself not the game but maybe that’s just me and what i think.
Heheh. Don’t take it personal, Kratos. I was just messin’ with you. If I had ever played God of War, I would probably be a Kratos fan as well. Hopefully, Jaffe can make something for 360 fans now that he is “independent.”
@Lee Yi
Sorry man.for some reason i just take everything other people say WAY TO SERIOUSLY.that’s probably why i seem to comment almost every time there is news post.
ARE YOU SERIOUS?YOU HAVEN’T EVER PLAYED GOD OF WAR?YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNEW THIS BUT THAT IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE GAME.TO ME EVEN BETTER THAN THE METAL GEAR SOLID SERIES.
by the way Lee Yi David Jaffe only want’s to make smaller gamer now.aside from the new Twisted Metal.
I think most games are better than the MGS series, but that’s just me.
RE: David Jaffe . . . yeah . . . like Calling All Cars?
I hope he makes another big budget game eventually. It’s nice that PSN offers a platform for him to do whatever games he wants, but I want to see something BIG from him again.
@Lee Yi
To sum up god of war easily.EPIC STORY, LOTS OF BLOOD AND GORE, INSANE FINISHER MOVES, GORY VOILENCE AND UNBELIEVABLE GRAPHICS.
@ Kratos, LOLThat puts it quite mildly to say the least,and don’t forge about boobies!! LOL,and yea for a PS2 game they are absolutly stunning especially with Progressive scan turned on and it being upscaled on the PS3 on 47′ 1080p TV,Man its gorgous!!
yea,I think David Jaffe is still only going to make games for Sony,so don’t get your hopes up too much,I believe he is working on Twisted metal right now,in fact pretty possitive that he ismI would love for him to make a big game in the PS3,Just think of how amazing it would be !! and My god I can’t wait for GOW 3…HD beheading and deformation FTW!!
@ Lee YI,”RE:David Jaffre…Yeah…Like calling all cars?,Yea David is the Creator of it,But Im sure he will be doing bigger things l8r on,If not it would be a waste of great talent
@humanbones
ya david jaffe only want’s to do smaller games right now he said but maybe in the near future he will decide to do bigger, more epic games.he really likes sony so i can’t see him doing 360 games but he might if the game costs to much to make and he doesn’t get much support from sony.after all EAT SLEEP PLAY is a pretty small company right now.
