The Gamer Access

In this episode, Sanii goes missing again, but quick to save the day is the star of "GamerTunes", Konrad. He also fills us in on his rags to riches story. The boys have no outline, no plan, and no news, but manage to pull off another epic show. We do a round table on Forza Motorsport 3. Topics rule this show as we talk about what game was the game that made you believe you wanted to become a gamer. We tackle things head-on like, innovation in gaming, if special edition releases are worth the money, how do you justify greatest game ever in a series, and the ultimate question: would you pay 100 dollars for XBOX live? We also give our thoughts on the new Bioshock 2 mode, official avatar awards details, and the Bayonetta release date. Of course, as always, we have our "Bitchin Gamers" and then we end the show with GamerTunes.

Forza 3 is a game full of promise and promises made. Developer Turn 10 Studios came out during E3 and pretty much said the game would cure herpes and do away with the need for any more racers.

So it's out now and we decided to do a duel review. I marked which of us, between Matt and I, wrote what. You can expect much more on the game when I post Game Lobby on Monday and when the new Generation X podcast goes live.

Read more now to see if you can stop worrying about herpes.

Uncharted 2 gets an update for some gameplay fixes and this weekend is Double Cash Weekend where okayers have the opportunity to double up on cash while playing their favorite mode online. Starting now to November 2nd 2009 at 11am PST. Read more for the list of fixes.

SCEA and Santa Monica Studios have announced the Ultimate Edition for God of War III. For the full details Read more.

Gaming headsets have become highly essential to owners of consoles over the past couple years. With the release of PlayStation Network and Xbox Live, in-game communication has played a large role in gamers’ online experiences. TRITTON Technologies have designed the AX 720 which brings gamers a high performance gaming audio system. The TRITTON AX 720 is specifically designed and optimized for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but is also compatible with Windows and Mac. Read more for the full review.

According to CallofDuty.com, this week is Double XP week for Call of Duty: World at War, and all the DLC that has been released is also 50% percent off for one whole week, ending November 1st.  Read more for a quote from www.Callofduty.com for further details.

Netflix has officially partnered with the PS3 to stream movies and TV shows.

It's apparently exactly like how the Xbox 360 uses the movie service. Here is the link to the news story. Like the Xbox, you will need a paid Netflix subscription. It will launch "next" month, which I hope means November. The big difference is that PS3 users will have to use a disc to stream movies.

Oh, this is where all the PS3 owners get excited, after first saying that Netflix on the Xbox was stupid or useless. Read more to find out about getting the disc.

In this episode, we discuss the harshness of the Australian government as L4D2 will be censored. How cool would it be if we got something more then points for playing games? We discuss how EA is a total conglomerate for having 3 franchises in the top ten selling franchises. It's true no one cares about Blu-ray. Microsoft again screws the world by banning 3rd party memory units. Some interesting incentives to get the disk-based episodes from Liberty City and get the Vice City Fm station in-game. Topics we discuss on today's show includes, reasons to pre-order certain games, the integrity of review scores, and is all change good change? And of course Diz shows his true fanboy nature and takes MAG off his games list. Bitchin Gamers as always. And Gamer Tunes.

According to the Epic Games forums, the "Title Update 5" release for Gears of War 2, coming Monday, will bring with it a Halloween double XP weekend. The event is titled "All Hollows Eve" and it will start the morning of October 30th and end November 2nd.

Epic thought it would be cool to adjust the Horde Mode a bit to make it "scary". Here is a quote from Rod Fergusson on details.
