This week we go over some heavy-hitters. Team Fortress 2 had the new content release, as well as the medic unlocks, but made a booboo; somehow they allowed the achievements to be unlocked via typing codes in the console. GTA 4 is out, but we haven’t played it because we’re not gamers. Mario Cart is out, as well. Zug went to ROFLcon in Boston, and also saw the documentary Second Skin while he was there; recap ahoy! Oizys went to the SC^3 event with Rog and friends.

Lots of little delicious tidbits in tasty gravy of news this week. Yatzee hates SSBM, and lets the world know he loves EGR. The Meet the Scout video is out, we’re bad friends because we missed it. Okami has a box art fiasco, using IGN’s watermarked images to make their cover art. Zug hates marketers and wants to fight them. Zug also talked about GTA4 multiplayer, and got some funny blogging marketing type people to fight him on the internet. SEX! Conan will have boobies! We played a game of Herzog Zwei before the show. Lastly, Pirates of the Burning Sea is going to release an API which will let you interact with their stuff, which is fun for the whole family.

TF2 teaches us some awesome things about unlocks and achievements. The medic has a lot of new toys to play with and a lot of hoops to jump through. We also break down four categories that the current achievement frenzy can fall into. Gamepro magazine suffers from praising sequalitis this week, so we take a look at weather this deluge of sequel games is good thing or bad thing? Related to this we stop and ask, “Where did modding go?” Lastly we talk about ‘easiness,’ and how there’s a bit of a trend praising simplicity in casual and kids games, and how that’s not really a good thing. People will overcome challenges.

Sign a petition if you don’t want Uwe Boll to make any more games. An awesome essay stating we need to settle down with the Church of Gamers. Zug raves about Grandma’s Boy, and Bartle speaks of his dark visions of the future. We talk quickly about A Neopets fan not being excited by Free Realms, and Zug talks about being the best in the world. Links to all this stuff available below!

Note: We talk a lot about being able to hear a TF2 game live in the background, but we found out at the end of the show that we weren’t actually recording or streaming it.

April fools! This show we had some pretty funny and creative chats, as well as talking about what the internet did for April Fools. We also talk up the new WoW tournament competition which allows you to make max level characters and deck them out with super pwn gear, all for just 20$.

Smedley says he will personally destroy WoW? No. That’s not what he said at all. Mad Max MMO? Persona 4! Interplay website is back, and we see all their lovely IP again. Guitar Hero On Tour for the DS, Crisis Core. GAME DESIGN CHALLENGE: Occationally we challenge ourselves to come up with a game concept based on a random element, issue, or problem that needs solving. This time, however, we go off on a really horrible, adult-rated tangent where we try to come up with an original game design for an ‘American Hentai Game.’ Discussions got pretty base; Horseplay, and somehow even Tamagotchi get involved. Zug is going to hell a whole lot.

This week we brawled, and all of the cool concepts the game has introduced, especially a prefabricated tournament system. No more Heroes cool wiimote/phone concepts, Wii stuff, fighting game stuff, and we touch upon a few other current events.

This week on EndgameRadio Prime, we take a walk down the catwalk because we are supermodels. Eve is revolutionizing their game by adding space stations and a very robust clothing wearing and crafting system. A somewhat simple change completely alters their game. Oizys and Zug have played a little of Forum Wars, and they want to make a card game out of a similar idea. We go off on a big schpeil about gender, why we play games, advancement, immersion, social aspects of games, gender swapping, and more Daedalus Project reports. Ziff Davis declares chapter 11, it owes a lot of money. Poor guys. This show goes out to the late Gary Gygax. Rest in peace!
