We discuss Wii Fit and how it tells fat kids they are fat. Bucky explains again why legislatures need to get over it and make parents do their job. Daniel believes the new breed of gamers want work not fun. GTA breaks entertainment records, Yeah! Is PC hardware classification a good thing?. A good Brit proves that video game violence does not cause real world violence…nanny nanny boo boo! Daniel asks the question on everyone’s mind… Shouldn’t Guitar hero be Band Hero?

We made an attempt to wrap up the violent video game discussion. Is steam the new live? Bucky and Daniel got into the Team Fortress 2 beta and gave their impressions. What is the big deal with Halo 3? Daniel doesn’t mention DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 3. We contemplated what makes EA tick. Michael plugs MechAssault again, and Bucky was willing to offend everyone except the Irish. Oh and we didn’t lose Bucky’s track this time, we lost Michael’s.
