Weekend Confirmed Episode 54
by Garnett Lee, Apr 01, 2011 11:00am PDTIn town on recon for his upcoming relocation to the land of TMZ, palm trees, and convertible sports cars, Xav joins the Jeffs and Garnett for this week's show. With more 3DS games like Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars and Super Street Fighter, plus Shift 2, WWE All Stars, Sword and Sworcery, and more, Whatcha Been Playin? spills over well into the third segment. There's still time for a little discussion in the Warning before moving on to the videogame news of the week. Mortal Kombat and the upcoming Xbox LIVE spring update lead the headlines on the Front Page. Things get a little undone but end strong with Finishing Moves.

AUDIO-OLOGY (n): an original, self-produced music group who combines, live hip-hop and rock into one groundbreaking package, featuring Detroit native Chaz Logan and Louisiana-born Zach Goyne; also a treatment and cure for what ails the music industry.
Audio-ology is the resulting musical mash-up, combining both Chaz and Zach’s roots in the church, with a love of both hip-hop and rock, a blend of backgrounds that results in the perfect post-Obama melting pot. The two met shortly after Zach arrived in L.A., just three days after Hurricane Katrina. Chaz usually comes up with the beats and music, while Zach writes most of the lyrics and collaborates on the melodies.
For more information, including news on their forthcoming debut EP on Eklektic Entertainment, visit the Audio-ology official site. They can also be followed on Facebook and Twitter.

Critiquing has it's place, but gamers seem to get drawn into a particularly belligerent style of critique that seems to get in the way of us all just having a good time playing our games and has some of us online spending more time defending the brands we love while bashing what we see as opposed to the brand we love.
Since I'm so pressed for time lately I have had to choose to either play games or talk about them. I've chosen to play with my limited time, and the break from the critique world has been truly refreshing.
I still made time for my WC though!

Honestly, these are my toys. I play games to have fun. If I'm not having fun with a game, I find it very hard to justify playing it, especially when I could be doing so many other things with my time, like playing fun games.
