Tom (Foolz) Towers and Shane (Aspro) host the 110th episode of The Pressroom. In this news-centric episode we briefly give hands-on impressions of some games, but that's really not that important. Most of it is awesome discussion and news. But if you must know, we talk about Full Auto (360), Uncharted: Drakes Fortune (PS3) and TurokGrinninginosaur Hunter (N64).

LOL Nintendo had it coming. Then again, I just read that NSMB DS and NSMB Wii sold nearly 30M each so far (29M & 26M respectively). No wonder Nintendo would be more than willing to shit out a couple more games in that series. It saddens me that Galaxy only sold 10M, though. It's a far superior game to both NSMB games. *Sigh*

Painful to note. The momentum of demographics is to blame.

Major kudos for resisting all the Michael Jackson jokes while talking about Moonwalker. I would have been far less restrained.

Wow.... over halfway until we got a Yakuza reference. Let's mark this one as a record!

Jeez, there's a lot of product placement on this episode. Nice to see the podcast has finally found sponorship.

Oh that reminds me, at some point I'll have to share my Swedish fish story.  Turns out they're not actually Swedish.

^Foolz always has the best lines.

Also, we did make fun of our guests from the prior week and the low "ratings", but in fairness to them, it was published over the Easter weekend, so that likely had more to do with the light downloads.
