September 24, 2010 SPOnGcast 17: Move, Reach, Michael Jackson, APB...
The chaps chat about Move and Halo. Svend goes to Cologne. Mark talks Dead Rising 2. The attack of the Michael Jackson fanboys brings Nirvana and Courtney Love into the frame. We want FantaVision for Move. Ape Escape get mentioned too.

We also manage to ask, "Should people who have never played a franchise be able to review a game from that franchise?".

In between all this, well, the chat goes very, very inappropriately in the direction of Nintendo's sadly departed Cammie Dunaway...

We also tackle the thorny issue of how you get a refund on an MMO that failed.

Oh, and here's what we drew during this podcast: a Bear Pig, a Monster.

September 14, 2010 SPOnGCast 16: It's illegal to hate Portal!
With Halo Reach in the headlines and Mark on holiday, we descend into discussions of jetpacks, Portal hatred, our sponsor - Nottingham Game City - Hooters, and famous actors in games, what's the point of them?

Why, we want to know, did Sony launch Move in the same week as Microsoft launched Halo Reach?

Is Apple's Game Center doomed to fail or will the iPad and iPod Touch kill PSP and DS in a savage attack?

Also listen to Paul get shouted down before he finally snaps. And a warm welcome to Game Media Awards nominee and ace games writer, Lauren Wainwright.

Post-Gamescom 2010, Mark shares his thoughts on the event along with his interview with Kinect Creative Director, Kudo Tsunoda.

In this week's Rayment's Payments, Paul sticks it to THQ over plans to make pre-own gamers pay extra to play their games online.

Kinect "no voice control" storm in a teacup dissected, and the issue of misleading marketing hype & fallacies surfaces. Again.

Svend, freshly bankrupted after his Summer of Sonic event, recalls his Rockaoke performance at the Wii Sing Encore event, getting an "Marvel vs Capcom" arse kicking from the game's producer Ryota Niitsuma, opting not to play the Taliban man in MoH and becoming heavily addicted to Valkyria Chronicles 2.
