In our 59th episode we discuss the poor performance of PS3 exclusives. We also share a load of new tidbits about Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (including the upcoming movie!) We also go over Capcom’s upcoming long list of PSOne games. Pacman discusses his recent purchases of Fight Night Round 4 and Call of Juarez 2. Frawlz attempts to tell us all about Extra Life 2009. We couldn’t have an episode without another heaping helping of ROOMAHS™.

I still don’t have my gaming rigs set up in my new house yet, so when Atlus’ Knights in the Nightmare for my Nintendo DS came in the mail courtesy of my Gamefly subscription, I was happy to break my eight day video game withdrawal by locking myself in my bathroom while my wife kept fluffing her tea cozies and hanging drapes.
I had heard multiple gaming sites and podcasts dance around the room with this game, some hating it, some loving it, but all agreed that it was definitely one of the most unique games they’d seen come out in a long while.
The videogame industry – like any industry – is more than capable of being a harsh mistress. Sometimes one mistake is all that is required to cause downfall.
Blue Omega, the dev team behind the less-than-stellar ‘Damnation’, have recently experienced this harsh truth first hand.
Mourn the loss of yet ANOTHER development team, after the jump.
Slowly ruining your gaming experience, one click at a time.
Figured that title would get your attention.
As an avid gamer, there is a pretty good chance you’ve at least spent a day or two with the online gaming sensation that is World of Warcraft. There were some major announcements over the last few days in the World of Warcraft universe that will impact not only your life, but the entire Chinese economy!

Last night I asked my husband to go pick up a movie for us to watch. As always, when I send him out to get a movie for “us” he comes back with some lame looking guy action movie with a hot chick on the cover. I rolled my eyes and settled in on the couch prepared to watch what I told him looked like a really stupid movie. Boy was I wrong. It was as if someone took all of the things I love about my favorite racing game and made it into a movie, except with a lot more blood, cursing, and hot chicks getting slashed in half while riding in fast moving death traps covered in steel and guns. Hit the jump to hear why I think that Death Race would make a great video game, if games were allowed to be that nasty. [continue reading →]
Yes, it’s the Podcast Wedding of the year and Sarcastic Gamer is proud to bring you exclusive Sarcastic pictures of the event from yesterday. For most people it’s a happy occasion, but for some reason Dave always cries at weddings…
It’s the first of July! We’re now officially halfway through 2009. Gosh. That went by fast. It’s been a busy time though, helluva busy time. A lot’s been happening around these parts. But I’m digressing here. You don’t care. You just want a video to watch.
And that video – featuring a world leader and some curious avian-based ringtones – awaits over the jump.
In this episode, you’re updated on Fight Night Round 4, The Microsoft Hulu Conspiracy with Don Marco, and much more. So listen up, and get updated.

I love a good conspiracy theory as much as the next guy and, as a natural born pessimist, I find myself thinking along the lines of a conspiracy theorist all the time, even if I don’t take the time and effort to make it known. I often suspect malicious plots, intentional sabotage, and corporate rivalry at the expense of the consumers’ best interest. That said, after an email this morning from a Blu Show listener, I got to thinking… maybe it would be entertaining to toss some of these random ideas out there and discuss them as a series of articles every once in a while. They’re all completely off the cuff and not based on any hard proof. That said, you might actually end up agreeing with some of these theories (or better yet, convincing me otherwise!) First up? Hulu recently refusing to play some videos on the PS3… [continue reading →]
Hi, ho, Kermit the Frog here, amongst a pile of boxes, writing on a laptop stacked on a filing cabinet in my brand new basement. What a mess. Have I mentioned that moving is a pain in the ass?
Anyway, back on topic, I know this might be a little old, but I’ve been out of the scene for about a week and I’m just getting my claws into it. A week ago, Rockstar Vancouver released screenshots for the upcoming Max Payne: 3, and I have to say, I’m not amused.
Bullet time with me over to the jump to find out why these screenshots piss me off!
Summer, particularly post E3, is generally a dead period for the games industry. Web sites continue to pump out articles, but with many companies preparing for the crowded, yet lucrative holiday season, notable new releases are few and far between. It’s certainly not an ideal situation for a core gamer, but at least it does provide some relief for one’s bank account. Plus, given that more games seem to get released each year, it’s not like gamers don’t have options. In fact, many probably need look no farther than their own entertainment centers.
