This week, the gang talks about scary stuff like the Taliban and Cthulu and God's toothpick, it must be huge! We talk confirmed delays (Gears 3), rumored cancelations (Ninjatown 2) and save the dates (the NY Comic-Con meetup). Minecraft is our reccession game and new favorite thing. Lastly, we respond to your letters and voice mails. Listening to this podcast will not give you bed bugs, promise.

Chris, missing? Boo! But Matt Leone gladly fills in on this week's show! We make fun of the TGS gallery, Halo Reach sales in Japan, Batman Arkham City, Medal of Honor being banned on military bases, and we take call-in questions!

This week, we're calling our show the atOdds cast. Why? We get Mike and Travis from at1UP to join us in Sam's absence. This week Chris rags on PlayStation Move, Tina complains about Halo Reach, we all discover what impact KFC has in Japan, wonder what you all think of Medal of Honor being banned by the military, and Sharkey loves Lord of the Rings online. As always, we take some pretty damn good call-in questions and letters.

We discuss where we've all been: LA, PAX, and where we're going: TGS. Sam talks about what he's looking forward to seeing, like The Last Guardian, and an empty Black Ops booth. The group is missing Chris'

presence, but Alice is kind enough to join us.

The gang reunites after too long apart. We celebrate with good discussion. Capcom's cutting out the racism! Valve made a fairy game! Acclaim died, again! And for Recession Gaming: Robot wants fishy! All those exclamation points plus community questions in this week?s Oddcast. It's good to be back.

Sharkey is back from his vacation, but Sam is off in Germany. Matt sits in and is kind of an old grump about it all while we talk about Italians threatening to kneecap Mafia II for sterotyping them, play Icarus Proudbottom and the Curse of the Chocolate Fountain, and take questions, and chatter about what games we've had stolen from us. Also, some guy in Malawi claims to have grown lady parts but we're more blown away that Tina has apparently been reading Perez Hilton.

The whole crew is reunited after a short absence from Chris. Battlefield 3 is announced in a shitty way, the Gears of War movie adaptation is delayed, the Crayon Physics guy has another food game, and we talk about our Games to Play Before You Die feature. And we close off with our q and a segment.

Matt subs in for Chris this week as we rap about women apparently spending more than guys on imaginary videogame items, the awesome freebie game Alien Swarm, the Medal of Honor beta is fun, and we hate on the eleven states that support the California anti-videogame law. Also, more calls calls calls, calls from the public.

Tina, Sharkey, Sam and Chris jam on such topics as GameStop's whining that they don't like being in the used games biz and the Joe Danger guy ripping on XBL. Also, Ballsrog and Tolecover both sent in some hilarious music. We need to set them up for a rap battle.

This week, we talk about Space! Specifically, the MMO Nasa created. Also, Bobby Kotick says something to piss off gamers (again) and Tina wants Spain to win the World Cup (nobody cares). We have a great chat with developers of Shank, Prince hates the internet, and we close off with our call-in questions.
