It's Super Bowl Sunday, and regardless of who you're rooting for, we can all agree that a new episode of Remember When is just what the Doctor ordered! So kick off your day with Episode 28, and enjoy a fresh episode of movie geek goodness!
Our show starts off with a look back at a classic adventure movie from the 80's, The Goonies. Starring Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, and Corey Feldman, this classic piece of cinema from Richard Donner is our first discussion. We talk about what we loved about the movie when we were kids, how well the movie's aged over time, and whether or not it's still relevant in today's society.
Then we jump into Heat. This bank heist drama from Michael Mann is the latest entry in Great Movies Jay Has Never Seen. Not so much a movie as a long-term cinematic commitment, Heat features an all star ensemble cast, an incredible shoot out sequence, and Val Kilmer with a mullet. But with a three hour run time, Jay's willingness to invest is put to the test, and after the first hour, his brain shuts off.
Finally, we discuss the long-awaited, greatly anticipated return of LOST. The season premiere whetted our appetites for more Island goodness, and we talk about temporal mechanics, alternate dimensions, and parallel coincidences. Oh, and butt-nekkid Juliet, as well.

There is also some game called Bioshock 2 releasing this week and I also have a conference call with the developers of the game from 2K Marin and Digital Extremes. I wasn't very excited for this sequel but after this conference call, I can't return to Rapture soon enough.

A lot of noise gets thrown around over opinions. Whose opinion is right, whose is wrong? By definition, opinions are subjective and vary from person to person. They can, however, be influenced by more prominent external factors. Gaming sites featuring preferred personalities, independent podcasters and even casual word of mouth all factor into a purchasing decision. Outside of these traditional channels, every now and then we are gifted with a rare perspective on a new release that warrants some serious attention. This week our lucky contributor is the ESRB, although not in the way you might think. The ESRB recently rated Dead or Alive Paradise for the PlayStation Portable and generated a lot of attention throughout the Internet with their view on the game.
Thankfully, the rest of this article is rated A for Awesome.
The guest on this week's show is a huge star. When we say big time, we mean the cream of the crop; the crème de la crème; the Lady Gaga of podcasting. You guessed it; Phoenix410 from PGR is the community guest (he made us say those things as part of his terms for coming on the show). Phoenix is joined by Robbiejo, GolfRat, Faitios and Shayward as they dive into the gaming goodness that is known as Mass Effect 2.
There are definitely a variety of topics on this week's show but you should really only be concerned with one thing. With the CEO of Team Woot facing off against the general of the GRA on the same podcast, does GolfRat finally retaliate? Find out on episode 32 of Talking About Gamers.
Ubisoft has announced the latest release date for Splinter Cell: Conviction, and it looks like this time they mean business. GameSpot reported today that it recently received a very unusual item in the mail: a rock with the Conviction logo on one side and the numbers "4.13.10" on the other. It's been a very long time coming, but Conviction's release date is now literally set in stone.
To call Conviction's development cycle troubled would be an understatement. This is a game that was first announced in 2006 for a 2007 release. But then in 2007, the game was delayed to 2008, only for that year to pass without any mention of the game at all. When Conviction finally reappeared last year, it was completely overhauled, bearing few similarities to what was shown before. It then missed its holiday 2009 release date, and was recently delayed again from its February 23 release date. It's been embarrassing, but Ubisoft seems to have taken it in stride with this unusual but funny message. I guess for Ubisoft, the fifth time's the charm.
Bethesda has announced that Fallout: New Vegas will be coming to the Xbox 360, PC and Playstation 3, Fall 2010. Developed by Obsidian, Fallout: New Vegas is the next chapter in the critically acclaimed Fallout franchise.
After the success of Fallout 3, Fall 2010 can't get here fast enough but for now check out the teaser trailer and let us know what you think!
For a limited time, if you pre-order Madden NFL 11 at Walmart, they will give you a $20 e-gift card. For some reason you can only use it online, but who cares? Do you really want to go inside that circus tent? This is great news for football fans who buy every year's iteration of the Madden franchise. Hell, for what essentially amounts as twenty bucks off, I might even hop back into the Madden world.... if only to realize that not much has changed since the last time I was there.
Did somebody say exclusive? Gamertag Radio presents: Community Vibes 5, coming this Saturday Febuary 6th, 2010 at the Ecco Lounge in Miami Florida. The following video highlights a new member to the Street Team and if you pay close attention there is a tiny easter egg that should get folks in attendance excited.
Having known everyone over at Gamertag Radio for years, I can't say how proud I am to see what they have accomplished in the past 5 years and now during Super Bowl weekend, Community Vibes 5 is set to become the biggest community gaming event of 2010. If you are in the South Florida area I strongly encourage you to attend this free event, this is a labor of love and it is for you, the gaming community.
EA, will your tricks ever cease? Some may remember the debacle that EA was in a few years ago when they decided to offer players the chance to buy in-game currency, in The Godfather, with real cash. One could view this as a good thing, offering players who didn’t want to spend a lot of time in the game the chance to have the full experience. On the other hand, it seems that this actually misses the point of playing the game, in that it gives players an easy out.
Imagine my surprise today when I logged into the European PSN and saw the above image in the Dante’s Inferno category. For those who don’t know, “Souls” are a way to buy upgrades for your character in Dante’s Inferno. The game isn’t even out yet and already players are being given the easy out.
On the European PSN, EA is offering 4 different deals: 5000 souls will set you back £3.19 (appx. $5), 3000 souls is £1.59 (appx. $2.50), 1500 souls is £0.79 (appx. $1.25), while the lowest amount, 500 souls, is free. While it is nice to see the option available, I can’t help but feel that this will take some of the edge off the game itself. The game is meant to be a combat heavy game where you are rewarded for performing combos, similar to God of War.
Tell us what you think of this option in the comments section. It won’t cost you a dime.
The Madden NFL franchise announced the results of its annual Super Bowl simulation today, predicting a Super Bowl XLIV final score of 35-31 in favor of the New Orleans Saints. This differs from analysts' predictions that the Indianapolis Colts will win the big game, but the Saints have been bucking expectations all season.
The Madden NFL Super Bowl simulation has picked the right winner five times in the last six years, with its only incorrect prediction being the astonishing Super Bowl XLII in 2008 when the New York Giants upset the undefeated New England Patriots. Its prediction of last year's match between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals was surprisingly accurate, even including the fourth quarter rally by Arizona only to come up short in the end.
According to the simulation, the fourth quarter will begin with Indianapolis leading 24-21, only to immediately find themselves down by four when Saints running back Reggie Bush opens the quarter with a 42-yard punt return for a touchdown.The teams will exchange leads twice more in the fourth quarter, with Colts quarterback Peyton Manning will then complete a touchdown pass to running back Joseph Addai, making the score 31-28 Indianapolis. But in the end, Saints quarterback Drew Brees will connect with tight David Thomas for an 11-yard touchdown pass resulting in the final score, 35-31 New Orleans. Brees was named MVP.
If correct, this would be the first time the Saints won the Super Bowl in their entire 43 year existence, not bad for a team that went from being historically one of the NFL's worst teams to the behemoth they were this season.
Xbox is on a mission to prove something. That something is that gamers will pay for anything. With all the technological advancements in graphics and levels of interactivity, and with Project Natal on the horizon, Xbox is trying to push this newfangled “Game Room” on us. It’s just another of Xbox’s cons. The con started for a lot of us when they introduced downloadable classic games, and now this? According to Microsoft, Game Room will be the be all, end all, when it comes to retro gaming. Hailed as the project that will finally bring back that old arcade feel, Game Room is nothing more than a money grab to me. The sick and twisted Xbox big wigs have been hard at work trying to come up with a way to pump every last dollar out of your wallet.
As get ever so close to our return to Rapture, 2K games has released the launch trailer for Bioshock 2. Weighing in at 3 minutes and 25 seconds, the launch trailer is a realization of everything Bioshock fans have been waiting for. The backdrop of a decaying underwater Utopia provides players with a sneak peek of the Rapture that awaits them next week.
As many of you know I am a huge fan of the original Bioshock and so far I've taken a wait and see approach to the sequel, but after watching this trailer I must admit I'm starting to get excited. Are you a Bioshock fan? After watching the trailer leave a comment and let us know what you think!
Over the past year, Behemoth, the creators of Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers, has been keeping a development blog on its third game. In the blog, they only referred to the game as "Behemoth Game #3," ....until now. Yesterday, Behemoth revealed on their blog the title of the game, "BattleBlock Theater," as well as a short description of the game's story:
"Having shipwrecked on a mysterious island you find yourself both betrayed by your best friend Hatty and captured by the locals. All of this is happening while being forced into deadly performances. This however, is just the start of your problems.
BattleBlock Theater is our upcoming third title for the Xbox Live Arcade. Website to follow in the next few days and as we inch closer to the release of the title, we'll be unfolding more of the story online."

Hey Slick, Get Lost!
Is there a balcony in Rapture?
