We’re back from PAX ‘08 with Episode 19 of the Sarcastic Gamer Playstation Podcast covering everything we saw and played. While we missed having Pacman there, Frawlz and Rothbart saw and played plenty… In this episode we discussed:
Introductions (Pacman whines about not having fun at PAX)
Pacman’s a self-described idiot, needs an alarm clock
Bet-check: Killzone 2 [...]
We’re back with Episode 18 of the Sarcastic Gamer Playstation Podcast… and it’s a doozy! I’m writing this description based off the agenda of things we discussed, so it’s possible some of these topics hit the cutting room floor (Dave has to cut SOME stuff to get us down to time and keep us somewhat [...]
You might be tempted to think from the title of this post that you don’t need to read on. I was sent a SumoSac Sultan chair for review and I love it, yadda yadda yadda. If you stop reading now, you’re going to miss some pretty important (and funny) stuff. As you [...]

I own Guitar Hero (PS2), Guitar Hero II (PS2), Guitar Hero II (360), Guitar Hero III (360), and Rock Band (360). I own FIVE plastic guitars, a mic, and a drum set from those games. It’s quite ridiculous. The path that led to my situation is quite frustrating and should’ve been much easier. I can [...]
Intel recently revealed the final spec for USB 3.0 to the public and while the reception was relatively favorable. PC gamers, however, may want to make sure their home owner’s insurance premiums are paid up, there are some thing we didn’t know about USB 3.0 that are just now surfacing. According to our [...]
Yes, we all know Rock Band 2 is supposed to be launching initially as a timed Xbox 360 exclusive. Well, my theory is: they simply can’t ramp production up fast enough to handle simultaneous launches across all platforms and territories for the September launch, so someone’s gotta be first.
Harmonix seems to think the Xbox [...]
I have a question I’d like answered. I have a hunch as to what the answer really is, but I’d love for some game developer to stumble across this and actually comment on it (even if anonymously.) How do seriously bad games ever get released? At some point in the development process, [...]
Sometimes I run across photos that don’t need to be heavily Photoshopped to be funny. Sometimes they’re perfectly funny the way they are. Today is one of those days as the first photo leaks of Jake Gyllenhaal as the Prince of Persia. We all know video game movies have a tendency to, [...]

In a recent tour of Capcom’s studios, I stumbled across something of epic proportion that nobody else in the gaming industry seems to care about. How this could be overlooked is amazing to me. The upcoming PS3/360 game Bionic Commando is founded on a very false assumption.
To find out the truth, continue on [...]
Just a quick note to let everyone interested in getting access to Playstation Home to check out the PS Home theme put on the PS Store today as Sony will be picking folks that have expressed interest (ie. downloaded the theme) to trickle into the Home beta as they deem fit. No word on [...]
