There has been a lot of noise about this game and after I final got some hands on time with it, I can tell you its for good reason. For all you Nintendo Wii owners, keep an eye out for this game. This is one that you will not want to pass up for sure.
I loved the song so I figured I would share it will all of you guys, so that means, check it out.
Bad Game (The Shadowrun Song), is a parody of Daniel Powter’s Bad Day and offers listeners an abrasively funny review of Fasa’s Shadowrun. The Song also takes aim at several other titles that have been less-than-successful so far this year. It was co-written by Jeromy “Doc” Adams and “Lono”.
“Bad Game turned out to be one of our favorite projects so far,” said Sarcastic Gamer’s Creative Director, Jeromy “Doc” Adams. “We got to use a cartoon voice for this song, because it seemed to fit the subject… Well, that and none of us could sing as high as Daniel Powter.”
Here is a very special interview with Jay Watamaniuk, Bioware Community Manager. Come watch as Gui J, from XBLRadio.com, sits down with him during the Penny Arcade Expo 2007 for an almost exclusive video interview about Bioware’s upcoming hit, Mass Effect.
Sorry about any audio sync issues, we had a camera fail so we had to use 2 different sources to get this to work.
Since impressing the public and critics alike at E3 2007, Call of Duty 4 has become one of this year’s most anticipated titles. Now, two months from release, the “public” has been given a sample of what’s to come.
The fact that this beta, which offers only 3 maps and a handful of weapons, has managed to steal some of Halo 3’s thunder (a game only 20ish days away) is a testament to how good COD4 will be. Since entering the beta I was almost instantly enthralled. (More on why “almost” later.) In the interest of full disclosure I should probably mention that I spent countless hours with Infinity Ward’s COD2, yet hardly touched Activision’s COD3, so I was excited to see what the original creators could do. It looks quite promising.
When you first start the COD4 beta, and presumably the retail version, the multiplayer options are pretty bare bones. Choose your class, choose your game type, then go shoot people. The menu teases, showing features and options that will be accessible later, but for now all you can do is decide upon a standard pre-made class and go shoot dudes in the face. Almost everything, from weapons to camo patterns to perk customization, has to be unlocked. (I’m not going to waste time explaining the beta’s content, but give my impressions. If you want information then go to charlieoscardelta.com and check it out. They do a much better job then I ever could.) Playing online gets you experience points. Get a kill and you’ll be rewarded 10 points. An assist nets you two (couldn’t finish him off, could you?). Eventually you’ll rank up, which unlocks different guns and the ability to create a class. Creating a class is probably the best unlock, at least in the beta, letting you select which perks you want. This really opens the game up to many different options, and really lets you play how you want according to the situation at hand. Have an enemy that hides behind cover? Then pick someone that shoots through walls. Does your enemy turtle as a pack in a small room? Pick a class that carries multiple stun grenades and the last stand ability, so you can flash and clear and take the survivors to hell with you. It almost becomes a game of chess, with you constantly countering the other team’s tactics while trying to outsmart them. These perks really add a whole strategic element to the game, and force you to quickly adapt and change your style mid-game.

It is that time of year for me once again my gaming friends, I am heading back to college. The reason that I am writing this article is because I have been changing my major three times since i started going to college, way back in 2003. The major I have chosen this time is Broadcast Studio Production (Radio and TV to be exact). I chose this major due to the experiences I have had in radio, promotions, and in journalism that was provided to me from the great people at XBL Radio. Thank you everyone, I could not have done it without you.
Now I just wanted to reflect on some of the great moments I have had since becoming a member of XBLradio.
1. Community spotlight ver 3.0: My second opportunity to be on a radio or podcast show, given to me by Mr. Steve519 himself. Thank you Steve for taking the time to put up with my nervousness, nerdiness, and also my bad jokes.
