We talk about E3 and how some sites are giving less than stellar Infamous scores. Hiphopgamer tells us about his first all expenses paid junket to Activision's Prototype party in Vegas. Also on this show…

Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
1)GOTY=Uncharted 2 deserves it,the gaming press will give it to Modern Warfare 2.
2)The mysterious Kojima game=You're in for a 'surprise'.
3)Microsoft may be liquidating Elites=All flops must go,the Elite gives the Xbox brand a bad rep due to its low sales and lack of great features for the asking price.I'm sure the Arcade is selling just fine :)
4)Darksiders and can it beat God Of War 3=No.
5)Heavy Rain can be done on 360=The main guy behind the game said it can not be done on the 360,I trust him>the hiphopgamer.
Criticism:PLEASE work on 2 things:
1)The mixing of the show.I really like what you've got going on but it's really hard to look forward to a poorly mixed Podcast.Really hard.
2)Breathing into the Mic.Maybe it's my obsession with quality recordings,but breathing into the Mic is,in my opinion,worse than kicking your Dog in the nuts.
My GOTY is KZ2 or uncharted 2,
Uncharted 2 and CODMW2 are both strong contenders for GoTY. Uncharted 2 because it's a huge step- up from its predecessor. Gameplay, story, and graphics wise, it's unmatched or will be based on early info.
CODMW2 because it's an IW game, and they tell great stories ( akin to these types of games) and it looks to be a step- up in terms of game play ( no respawning ai, unique coop.) Nothing on multiplayer yet.
Don't see anything from the xbox camp blowing people away... sorry
As of now, my GOTY is Resident Evil 5, that game was awesome.
Torrence is such a fanboy bloody hell why cant he let Hiphip talk...Hiphop talks the truth they just cant accept it..Jon sounds like a woman arguing.
