Game RAge Radio Episode 6
we cover what we played on our winter breaks, then we dive into terrible game glitches. We get a little idealistic at the end but that always something to strive for.

Silence of the Podcasts
Well today UGO bought 1up.com and then proceeded to layoff 40 staff members. Many of those staff members were responsible for the 1up show video podcast, and the various 1up podcast. Seriously what the fuck.. they bought the 1up brand, but the brand is known for their other various forms of video game media. Which fostered a strong user community that gathered around that media. Only time will tell how this is going to turn around such negative publicity.

iPhone Games
I just downloaded the Super Monkey Ball game for the iPhone and have to say it's pretty fun. Not sure yet if it was worth $7.99 but time will tell. The controls use the phones accelerometer to control the game and at times can be extremely frustrating to get a good feel for. I don't think I'll be paying for many more apps or games after this because the ease with which I spent $7.99 on this seems like something that could become a dangerously expensive habit. Even $.99 at a time can add up quickly for cheaper items. So if you can go with the free games. I recommend Scramboni, a word puzzle game that pits you against other players and Lock n Roll, a dice based game that is simple yet addicting. Tap Tap is also a good one. It's like guitar hero for the iPhone. Until next time kids....
