Used Game Sales Bad!!

For those of you that don’t know I cruise a lot of gaming sites when trawling for podcast fodder. Normally anything I find gets worked into Wonderpod in some shape or form. A story like the one I am about to post for you is generally ignored right from the start. Because it is yet […]

Bioware Does The Waffle Dance Of Doom

Oh BioWare,  you make it so hard to love you some times.  It’s like the studio likes being abused by raging, obsessive fan children.  Last week  they weren’t going to change the end of Mass Effect 3 and the irrational fan rage swarmed like a mob full of village idiots. Now according to CVG, they […]

Minecraft 1.2 First Look: Jungle Biome

The Minecraft 1.2 update is live and ready for download. So I dropped everything I was doing and got the game all patched up. Then I shot a quick video showing off some of the features I found.  I will have more on this update as I get time. Now I had better pick back […]

UK Sony Vita Launch With Chrisoffmyspace

Our good friend Chris Loyd (Chrisoffmyspace)  recently attended the UK launch of the Sony Vita.  He was kind enough to put together this video for the awesome readers of WPO.  Let me stop yapping and you can watch the video. Thanks for this Chris, the crew here appreciates your hard work. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKQZwdCcTMI&context=C3ef0e89ADOEgsToPDskICsi9fNXqsxfB36UhVMLqK[/youtube]   

Medal Of Honor Sequel News

I was one of the few who really enjoyed the Medal of Honor reboot. I liked the fact that it didn’t have a traditional story and just dropped you into the daily chaos of a special forces solider. I admit that it wasn’t as spectacular as I had hoped. The originally WWII MOH was one […]

Will Borderlands 2 be 1000 degrees hotter?

Those of you that have not listened to past episodes of Wonderpod Video Game Podcast may not know that I was never a big fan of the original Borderlands. Which is a bit strange considering how much I like both shooters and online co-op with members of the Wpod family. It may have been due […]

Down On The Bot Farm

Uh oh looks like someone is screwing with the app store. According to this news post from Joystiq. People are employing a bot service to alter game rankings. First off, I’m surprised we don’t hear about this more than we do. iTunes and the app store are a crowded market to break into. As someone […]

Xbox Live Price Increase (a year or so later)

I wonder if anyone even remembers that the price of Xbox live went up in late 2010. In this instant Internet age it’s easy to forget. I am sure the critics and people looking to fling poo haven’t forgotten. Zeus help Microsoft for doing anything to interrupt the status quo. Granted a lot of the […]

This Is How You Do It Wrong

I think I may have just found my calling in life. I think game developers should hire me to follow them around and tell them when its time to shut the hell up. Look at this story from CVG and tell me I couldn’t make a career out of shushing idiots like this. Yeah I […]

Take This Score and Shove It

It amazes me how stupid developers are getting. It is like they don’t seem to get how the gaming industry works. I mean it’s a fairly simple process from what I can tell. Someone comes up with an idea for a game or a sequel. Then the money to make said game is acquired. The […]
