Podcast 22 – Battlefield Zeroes
Yeah, we know we talked about Battlefield Heroes last week. But we talk loads about Battlefield 1943 this week, which seemed close enough to go with this incredibly witty title. Deal with it.
This week’s highlights include:
- We like 1 vs 100.
- We also like Battlefield 1943.
- Sean fails to understand what an inverse relationship is.
- ”If Joe Pesci decides to take over the world again, who will save us?”
- Scribblenauts excitement continues to build.
Then we go into a massive talk about the price of videogames (recorded before the announcement of Modern Warfare 2 retailing at 55 quid – more on that next week) and the second-hand market completely ruining everything. And hey – why don’t more people rent games these days, anyway?
Hope to see you again next week, and thanks once again for all your feedback/comments. Do let us know if you’re listening – it makes us happy on the inside.

In regards to games been solid at a high price, I also noticed that nowadays games drop in price quicker than ever. I was able to pick up stuff like The Munchables, Fight Night 4, and Red Faction for halfish price by just waiting a week or two.
In regards to Modern Warfare 2 retailing at £55, if that happens I will just not buy it. Same goes for RIDE and DJ Hero. I am interested in all of them, but I am not willing to spend anywhere near that much.
Activision needs one or more of their games to bomb BIG time to wake them up. I know they’re a company and their job is to make money, but they have to keep us gamers satisfied as well to accomplish that.

These podcasts are really entertaining, even though I’ve never played most of the games you talk about. Good stuff.

Mixing blue and green? Surely it differs between pigments and light?
Seth: you’re welcome. Although it hasn’t arrived back yet…
