So here’s our final episode for 2009. In this episode we take a look back at the past year and discuss our favorite video games, movies, TV shows and other things that came across our path. We also save a special section to reflect on those other offerings that made us made us a little crazy; the worst of the past year. We also glance ahead to some things we’re looking forward to in 2010.

Machinarium(21:05 – 36:36)
Dragon Age Origins(36:44 – 53:11)
As we mentioned in the show, if you want to check out Machinarium you can head over to their official website for screenshots and a demo. Let us know your thoughts and feedback in the comments.
We just mentioned this on the podcast a couple of weeks back and now a new trailer has launched today. I’m honestly not sure what to make of this. On one hand it does look good but on the other, I’m not convinced fast action and explosions are what naturally come to mind when I think of Sherlock Holmes. I do know Mark Strong was awesome in RocknRolla so I’m definitely interested to see what he brings to the table.
The Road
The Road is based on Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel. I haven’t had a chance to read the book yet but I hear its great. And last I checked, they don’t often hand Pulitzers out to shitty books. This certainly has a great cast so I’m looking forward to it.
Ghostbusters
It seems like I’ve been hearing about this game forever and its finally due to come out next month. This looks like it could be promising and I think this could work really well on the Wii.
