TalkRadar 27 – it's a g-g-girl!

Two new faces join this week’s discussion of 2008’s biggest games… and one of them's not a dude!

Words: Brett Elston, GamesRadar US

This is it folks, the massive barrage of new games that’s threatened us for months while we patiently twiddled our stupid thumbs over the entire summer. Why can’t they release this crap steadily throughout the year (and don’t say “Christmas”)?

Anywho, we’re talking up the many, many new games this week, including Call of Duty, Mirror’s Edge and Banjo Kazooie, plus the Top 7 and a boatload of community goodness. T-Dar 27 also welcomes two new co-hosts this week, Lizzie Cuevas and Henry Gilbert, who’s technically not new, as he made a brief cameo waaaay back in number seven. He talked about shoving a nuke up Superman’s ass.

Explicit Content Within! Persons with delicate ears should definitely not listen, as they will hear edgy no-no words freely spoken on South Park and HBO.

for some reason, this feels like the longest wait for any Talkradar episode. Today took forever to end.

Ahh...I've beaten all of those RPGs that Brett mentioned XD

That false patriarchal demise narrative has just won you a special place in my shriveled heart, Mr. Antista.

Well done.

Jesus Christ Chris - I've never been able to say I actually spewed a beverage onto my monitor until now - I just wiped mouthful of water from the screen of my LCD after that comment.

a somewhat long wait but really well justified.

Another great podcast. Please forgive me TalkRadar, I am going to change my iTunes review now.

Excellent job this week. I loved the tunes from Home Movies, Gitarooman, CVIV and Metalocalypse.
Bon Swa is the first character you've brought in that is a real winner and the US Office like/UK Office love IS the correct stance. Fuck that iTunes chotch.

BAGS BAGS BAGS!

Oh after hearing about your thoughts on Castlevaina:Judgement, I looked up the Simon Belmont picture and was very disappointed in Takashi Obata. He's one of my favorite manga artists and the Death Note anime/manga is brilliant, I recommend it. Its sad that he totally failed here.

AND GOD, I KNOW IT MAY HURT MR. ANTISTA'S THROAT, BUT PLEASE HAVE BONE SWA MEET DUKE!
