Warp Zoned Podcast: Episode 13

Welcome to Episode 13 of the Warp Zoned podcast! Mike Gutierrez, Nicole Kline, Ryan Littlefield, and Adam Woolcott tackle some of the most important news, starting with what they’ve been playing, moving on to the big regime change at Sony, and ending with Nintendo’s folly with Operation Rainfall. They keep the tangents to a minimum, focusing mostly on ridiculous peripheries for the Wii. You’ll find yourself looking for the “ep” key when you listen to Episode 13, the first of the Fabula Nova Crystallis series!

In June we got to see the wonders of E3 including the Press Conferences from all three major players (Microsoft, Sony, Nintendo). Besides looking to the future at the E3 Expo, we looked at the future of game rentals in a Redbox vs Gamefly comparison and we also glimpsed a look at the future of the 3DS.

But that doesn’t mean we forgot the here and now as we got our hands on El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron and Sonic Generations as well as reviewing Dirt 3, Sega Rally Online Arcade, Brink and Dungeon Siege III.

Next issue, prepare yourself for an alien invasion in Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon.
