TalkRadar 66 – a winner is YOU

Four of our fabulous contests are over – did you win? Plus Batman, Final Fantasy and cheesy songs!

Words: Brett Elston on August 28, 2009

 

 

Your Hosts:



The Topics:

Top 7… trendy game design crutches – gravelly voices and hoods unite!


Batman: Arkham Asylum kicks all our asses – we’ve dubbed it “the Bioshock of 2009,” and brought some moody audio for your discerning ears.


Dissidia: Final Fantasy voiceovers – are as stilted and plodding as ever. Anyone tell Square that it’s 2009, not 1999?


10 cheesiest songs about videogames – the best/worst thing you’ll hear all month, guaranteed. No refunds.


Technically, that’s not correct – sucking all the fun out of your escapism


Contests concluding this week:

Win Metroid Prime Trilogy – winner is announced in third segment!


Win TMNT Blu-ray box set – five lucky readers will soon be able to discover the horror that is the third Ninja Turtles movie.


Win Watchmen Blu-ray – you ask us “will you please announce the Watchmen winners this week?” and we whisper “no.”


Win Shadow Complex – three download codes could be yours in the third segment of TalkRadar 66.


New contests this week:

Win Street Fighter IV for PS3/360 – Australian band Sick Puppies gave us one for each platform. Click to see how you can win!

    After listening to the Top 7 twice, I want the standard puke sound in reverse! Here's to hoping it's in future podcasts.

    Talk radar 66 is released the the same day as talk radar uk 06 to make 666 which confirms my suspicions that coincidences happen often

    I have sadly seen TMNT 3. It has some of the most embarassing movie lines in history.

    Another great show! Man I'm so glad Dan Americ mentioned this podcast a few months ago. I guess I'm what they call a lurker, I don't post much anywhere. Tell the bosses that I like this show so much that I wrote somethings so they could see I was listening. Also, I've been checking the site for news. Thanks.
