Episode 21: One Year Wonder

Episode 21: One Year Wonder

- In Episode 21, Jedi and Spark conclude a full years worth of podcasts in with Episode 21. We cover five games: Riddick, Left 4 Dead, Chromehounds, Lost Planet 2 and Killzone 2. We then move onto industry news which includes talks about the end to Xbox 1 support, media boxes versus game comsoles, 3D technology, medical research into games, PSN revenue vs XBL revenue and good PS Home news. Then we discuss two hot button issues both revolving around sex and online gaming. We then talk about Geezer news including shout out to something someone said to me over Facebook chat, the H.A.W.X. game, Meet and Greet/GeezerFest '09, and finally Netflix Gems. To close out the podcast I though out a shameless plug and talk about the one year anniversary of Geezer Radio.

Episode 20: Fracked

- We talk about three demo's (Killzone 2, Halo Wars, and H.A.W.X.) and then quickly go into games that are about to come out and then games that we have new information or screens for. I talk about what I like in Playfire.com, per Sal's request. Then we talk about Sessler's Soapbox, why Jedi is sorry about the 2009 M&G, and then Netflix Gem's. Then Spark and I get fracked, whacked and then go on the attack as we go on a 25 minute review of why we love Battlestar Galactica. Warning: Contains foul language.

Episode 19: BMI or TMI

Episode 19: BMI or TMI

- Spark and I get serious about why the news sucks! We cover silly news from The View, and stupid local local news, and then shake our heads in shame and disgust. We cover PlayStation news and Killzone 2 Demo, and how a demo of RE5 can kill my pre-order. Then we talk about the 2009 GGSE M&G, and we move on to Facebook, Netflix Gems, Skinflix and then the Playfire.com interview.
