PB & Jason Issue 3: Origin Stories

In this fascinating new issue of PB & Jason, Jason gives listeners a brief bio of every member on staff except Stanton Daries, and sheds light on a few little-known connections between himself, Nick, and OJ.

After that, he runs down Chris's gaming pedigree, most specifically (and contentiously), the experiences Chris has had with the Final Fantasy series.

Following this, Jason briefly mentions Final Fantasy XIII and NBA Jam, indirectly contrasting the multiplatform differences between the two games.

He concludes with a shout out to Penguin United, mentioning their new Eagle Eye device for the PS3, discussing initial impressions PixlBit's staff have had with the accessory.

"Nick got involved with Neal at NWR" Scandalous.

This must be what a podcast by c3po would be like-too much detail followed by shouting at R2 loool

Rare was always called Rare since 1985, I believe. At the least, they were still Rare in 1993 when Snake, Rattle, 'n Roll was released:

Since 1985, sure. Sorry, wrong date, wrong game, but for reference, they were called "Ultra" before then. We looked it up!

No, "Ultra" was a division of Konami. "Ultimate" was what Rare was when it was first founded.

Grrr. That was an absolute mistake, considering I said the right thing in AIM an hour before I made that comment. -_-

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Review

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
