Being the eve of International Talk Like A Pirate Day, this week's episode has a very 'piratey' feel to it.

We discuss the impact of video game piracy to the consumer and the developer, and chat about why people would want to illegally obtain a copy of a game.

Daniel stays with the pirate theme and reviews a retro Lucas Art's game, Monkey Island.

Daniel is back and in this episode we look at whether developers should be coming up with new games and IP's or sticking with their current franchises and sequels.

We give you the listener a chane to win a copy of Lego Star Wars on Nintendo DS, so make sure you check out Episode 3, 'Attack of the Sequels'

The first ever episode of Hyperbeam Radio brought to you by Frank Macri and Daniel Worthington. We explore wether or not new release video games are priced too high, take a look into the new motion controls coming from Sony and Microsoft and we take a step back into time with a review of the original GameBoy game, Donkey Kong.

This week we take a look into shovelware and wether or not publishers and developers should be supporting these D Grade titles. Unfortunatly Daniel could not be with us this week as he was attacked by Zombie’s on the way to the Hype Studio’s but he will be back fresh and healthy next week.

Filling in for Daniel is game salesman, Ceri Hutton. He will be sharing his thoughts on the shovelware topic, and give us his review on a brand new addon to the Xbox Live Arcade, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, a remake of the arcade and SNES classic.
