TalkRadar 52 - punch drunk!

This week we raise our drinks to Punch-Out!!, review InFamous and shed tears over Trico

Words: Brett Elston on May 22, 2009

 


 

 

Top 7... RPG towns that explode – starring Final Fantasies IV, VII and X!

 

Bionic Commando – reviews are all over the place... we explain why you shouldn’t listen to any of them.

 

Fun with stereotypes: starring Punch-Out!! – please excuse our incessant gushing over what could very well be Wii’s best game of 2009.

 

InFamous reviewed – Hear how this electro-charged PS3-exclusive doesn’t quite live up to expectations.

 

Terminator through time – “come with us if you want to re-live,” possibly the best strapline this week.

 

Project Trico trailer - Watch the TRICO trailer like your soul depends on it:

    I'd have to say, I disagree with your list still. FF4's town didn't explode, it burned. FF7's didn't technically explode either.

    If you said towns that were destroyed, sure, but most of them weren't exploded, lol. But, even then, letting that slide, Xenogears totally beats most of them and was so much more awesome cause Id is just such a badass character. 100 times more than overhyped Sephiroth and so many other villains in series. I just have a feeling you never played Xenogears really lol.

    But I guess this is just an opinion but damn.. Xenogears was deeper than any FF and had so many more awesome characters imo.

    Now I haven't heard this podcast yet but I'm just going to assume that you guys still haven't talked about GDC. Are you ever going to say anything about it or just ignore it? (I'm not trying to assault you guys or anything I would just like to know)
