The Gamer Access

The impossible has happened. The show is actually less than two hours long. MW2 pretty much killed the gaming world this week so we let topics rule the show again.

We talk about how much developers matter as far as game purchases. We tried to determine the deciding factor when purchasing multiplatform multiplayer and single player game and we also dissect the communities of Xbox LIVE and PSN.

If you're tired of Modern Warfare 2, you should just move on with your life, but continue reading if you want to see almost 90 minutes of game footage and hear four dudes talk about the game.

Matt, the resident Modern Warfare fanboy, is your host, but PLEASE be warned that we do get into some serious spoilers, but we do that at the very end of the show and give you plenty of time to stop listening/watching.

So here is the audio stream and the download link. Read more if you want to see the video embed. Oh, and I realized that I got something wrong about the game as I watched the show again, but I honestly forget now what that was.

With the release of the God of War Collection right around the corner, many God of War fanatics are anxiously waiting to pick up their copy Tuesday. The God of War Collection will not only give PS3 owners the ability to play a remastered version of God of War I and II in HD, but also early access to the God of War III E3 Demo. I just got done completing the demo and I must say I was blown away, but something else just came into play. Read more to find out!

UPDATE

So here it is. This is our Modern Warfare 2 review. I'll admit that a game this big doesn't really need a one, but here it is. You have Matt and I doing our co-op review.

Know that he's on the Xbox and I'm on the PS3, but that doesn't really impact our long-term view of the game. The problems with the PS3 version are about completely fixed and I don't take off points or anything else because of that. Oh, and I didn't include videos because we're going to dissect the game on Saturday's Game Lobby.

Read more if you're bored, but know that Matt is a Modern Warfare fanboy.

PS3 owners of Modern Warfare 2 know one thing very well: We're getting the short end of the stick. Many of us weren't able to earn trophies or party-up at launch. Today we couldn't get online at all.

Meanwhile, my friends with an Xbox version have experienced little problems doing anything the game pretends to offer. So why? Why is the PS3 version broken? Read more to find out.

UPDATE: Here is a tweet from account quoted later.

"Final #MW2 PS3 Status update of the day: PSN Multiplayer should be running at full capacity. We expect smooth skies ahead." He also said we can expect a party invite patch by the end of the week.

So it took me less than six hours to beat Modern Warfare 2 on normal and I decided to post something about it without really getting into the game itself. I'm sure the COD fanboys on this site will have reviews and all that later.

But they tend to eat slow, so here are a few things to kill time. Read more if you want to see what a Beagle looks like through the Modern Warfare 2 night vision goggles.

In this short video article I explain why Blu-ray will never be replaced, how Microsoft missed an opportunity to kill Sony, why most developers will never utilize Blu Ray this generation and the importance of staying one step ahead when running a business.. 

After a little hiatus, I am officially back in action! Sometime life takes twists and turns but you gotta bounce back. Priorities must be kept in order but now the Slap has returned. With my first official resurrection show, I will talk a little about why I was gone and why I came back plus talk about some old and new topics that I been wanting to talk about. I got some new things planned so stay tuned and if you missed the show, sorry but I am back and I'm not going anywhere! Follow me on Twitter and/or Facebook, Gameronduty

I forgot to mention it on the show, but those of you who haven't played Braid on the 360 will have the chance to play it on the PS3 starting this Thursday for $14.99 on the PSN Store!
