POP Ep.149: Diabolical Boxes (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)

Published: Aug. 31, 2009, 2:54 a.m.

b'This week! Voicemails, tweets and whatcha been playingses. In the first segment we cover a lot of ground, from favorite platformers and Sony\'s new ad campaign to utter disappointment at Best Buy\'s The Beatles Rock Band demo day. Games discussed during this 149th show include Dissidia: Final Fantasy, Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 2, Batman Arkham Asylum, Uncharter, Shadow Complex, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Warriors Orochi 2 (PSP), Madden 10 and Peggle.

Beware potential spoilers for the first hour or so of Batman Arkham Asylum from 1:03:25-1:13:00.

And that, friends, is this week\'s episode. Note, although this episode is called Diabolical Boxes, we barely talk about the sequel to Professor Layton that came out last week.
