    Podcast for 06-02-08 | Totally Hardcore

    totallyhardcore.jpg

    With companies catering to the swelling masses of "casual" gamers, hardcore gamers are starting to feel slightly underrepresented. This week, Chris, Qais and Jinny talk about (more like obsess about) The World Ends With You and what it does to shake up the RPG formula, how Guitar Hero for the DS may actually be good, Beyond Good and Evil getting a much-deserved sequel, and the strange subset of hardcore Warcraft III custom map players. We then proceed to rip through the mailbag, where we actually read your actual letters on the air. I don't know how it works, I'm not a scientist.

    Gamestop Midnight Burning Crusade Launch

    Well, I can no longer brag about my adventures of being a Blood-Elf Paladin while everyone else plays End-Game or trys to get to 60. That's right, Burning Crusade is here and you can get your grubby little hands on it starting about a half hour ago. I went to my local Gamestop/EB Games to check out the festivities and I have to say I was impressed. Their process to purchase seemed painless... Once you got to the store, before midnight, you could walk in and pay for your copy and just hang around until midnight came. Midnight hit and everyone gathered into their smelly, nerdy, and sexually aroused lines. It wasn't as crazy as I thought it would be, but it was interesting none the less. Click the jump for 2 (yes only 2) pictures of the fun.

    Burning Crusade Tonight at Midnight!

    Tonight's the night kids! At midnight tonight you'll be able to go get your copy and maybe even get the collectors edition without paying double. Of course, Ebay whores are snagging up the collectors editions and selling their presells to gamers like us for our souls and some ass raping with no lube. Ok... Really they're selling for an average of about $200. Apparently, some retailers in the UK have broken the street date along with some retailers around the US who just made the mistake of not informing their workers. Gamestops around the country are having midnight launches and you can find one for you here. Happy huntings and good luck!
