GameCrashers Podcast – Ep.7 – The USS-GameCrashers Blows its Warp Core
This week on GameCrashers radio, Soundtrack burns a hole in the space time continuum that is so deep it destroys our first attempt at recording Ep 7 and causes one of our guest hosts to disintegrate before our very eyes. What’s left is a collection of impatient, groggy, and battered podcasters who muster up whatever strength they have left to deliver up the mediocrity you’re about to enjoy. Hey, at least we aim high.
Topics we discuss and speculate on:
- Game of the Week: Fallout 3, Final Fantasy X-2, Ghostbusters, Ratchet & Clank Future, Paper Mario
- Do videogames need violence to tell compelling stories?
- Will Apple ban drug dealing game
- Midway bought by WB, RIP Midway
- Miracle on the Hudson flash game played 4.6 million times
- Eidos commits PR Sepiku regarding Batman: Arkham Asylum

And yes, I mispronounce Shenmue several times during this podcast. Would you like a tissue?
Break Theme: Street Fighter Series
This was a great episode.
RE: violence in videogames: I’ve already played SotC but I just picked up ICO. I actually wish they left out any combat. It’s the only thing irritating about the game.
I lol’d at the lemonade stand analogy. Very succinct.

Y’all made me listen to all those crappy Street Fighter songs and never mentioned SF4. Not sure what you could talk about, but.. yeah. Podcast is broken.
Thanks Naib.
I also played SotC, but to this day have never played Ico. I really need to.
Hey, those are some of the better ones…and the song for Street Fighter 4 is just silly. The reason we didn’t talk about 4 yet is because I just got it for PS3. I want to play it some more before talking about it on the show.
