Episode 120: Kane and Lunch

Published: Aug. 4, 2010, 4:40 p.m.

microphoneHey, it's a bit late, but it's here. And that's what's important.   This week, Holy Goalie and Edie Sellers do what they do best: Chatter aimlessly and make jokes... oh, no wait, we mean talk about the week's headlines in gaming news.   Topics include:

  • Bioware debuts Dragon Age 2 at Comic-Con.
  • Microsoft defends its price of the new Kinect. They say $150 is comparable to what you'd spend on a Playstation Move.
  • Rock Band 2 and Dance Central are both getting Tears for Fears, Marilyn Manson, the B-52s, and Def Leppard.
  • Metalocalypse: Dethgame is dead. Ironically.
  • Call of Duty: Black Ops will come to the DS. Ironically.
  • Resident Evil 5 Gold edition will be Move-upgradable, but regular old vanilla RE5 won't. Ironi... oh, wait, that joke's dead.
  • Netflix for the PS3 adds search feature, making it far superior to the Xbox 360. Yay!
  • Bioware announces Mass Effect 2 DLC "Lair of the Shadowbroker."
  • HAWX 2 coming September 7, Kane and Lynch 2 demo now available for PS3 (and has since become available for the 360 as well), LittleBigPlanet 2 coming November 16.
  • Curt Shilling's 38 Studios moves to Rhode Island and unveils Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning, due fall 2011.
Enjoy.
