This week on the podcast, we look at the Fringe season 2 finale and reflect on the show’s second season in general. And on the topic of TV, we also reflect on the recent Lost series finale. We also take a look at two new games on the Xbox 360, Alan Wake from Remedy and RockStar Games’ Red Dead Redemption.
In case you’ve been under a rock for the last couple of days, E3 has kicked off this week and the interwebs have exploded with tons of trailers for upcoming games. So we’re going to try to comb through the best and give our thoughts over the next couple of days.
Alan Wake
It seems like we’ve been hearing about this game forever and it looks like it’s getting ever so close to becoming a reality. They seem to be going for a rich cinematic experience and I’m not sure if I want to play it or just sit back and watch it. Anyway, here’s hoping we’re not still anticipating it at E3 2010.
Crackdown 2
We all only recently got on the Crackdown bandwagon and I think its safe to say we’re pretty giddy at the prospect of more. Not much in terms of gameplay in this one or even a confirmed release date yet.
Shadow Complex
This is neat looking side-scroller that’s coming out for the Xbox Live Arcade later this year. It really seems to be bending the perceptions of how a 2D scroller normally performs and could be another strong title on the Live Arcade.
The Beatles: Rock Band
We talked about this a few shows back and I personally wasn’t jumping up and down with excitement. But I gotta admit the visuals look great and apparently it will come with three microphones so you’ll be able to harmonies with your friends. Which could be fun and disastrous all at the same time.
