Welcome to "Morning Hangover" -- an excellent way to start your day with the crew at TheFeed...no matter what you're recovering from. Every morning you'll hear musings from two of TheFeed's editors and have the chance to share your thoughts on what's going on in the gaming world. So buckle up, break on through to the other side, and keep reading!
Patrick Klepek: My free time in the past few days has been spent playing through 'Splosion Man. Easily one of the most impressive downloadable games I've ever played, 'Splosion Man is a hardcore platformer. Twisted Pixel throws no punches in the level design for 'Splosion Man, often to a fault. I struggle over whether that's a fault holding against them, though; games these days are easy and often times I have no real problem with that. 'Splosion Man harkens back to an old school, throw-your-controller mentality tied to new-age physics and technology. Sometimes, it works. Sometimes, it doesn't. But that's why it's a fantastic downoadable game -- in a few hours, I'll be onto the next thing. For now, it works.
Raymond Padilla: The bizarre love (hate?) triangle between Apple, AT&T, and Google is getting an intruder: the FCC. Puzzled by Apple's decision to block Google Voice from its App Store, the FCC has asked both Apple and AT&T for some answers. As you know, AT&T has enjoyed enormous success from its exclusive partnership with Apple for the iPhone. Some of you also know that Google CEO Eric Schmidt serves on Apple's board of directors. Google and AT&T were roommates at the Jedi Academy. (Okay, only two of the last three things were true.) The relationship between the three companies is complex.
It's surprising and scary that the FCC is getting involved; while most agree that the blocking of Google Voice was unfair, some are concerned that the FCC will (unnecessarily) inject itself in more and more tech matters. Personally, I don't expect much to come from this. To me, the FCC is like Mr. Furley checking up on his tenants in Three's Company (and I so know that most of you are too young to get that reference) -- might be good for a laugh, but I don't expect it to accomplish anything.

I'm a bit too young for Threes Company, but I do remember Ritter going on a talk show (Conan i believe) and saying many years later, due to advances in technology, someone found out that in one episode, you could briefly see John's testicles. Nick at Night wanted to play Threes Company, so there was a debate about wheter to include the original or edit that episode. Ritter thought they should run it both ways because, "Sometimes you feel like a nut; sometimes you don't."
That really doesn't tie into this post too well, but its a great story, so I'm hoping i win that shiny new pony.

Come on, Mr. Padilla. By referencing an old '70's show (Three's Company), and not expecting us to "get it", you are severely underestimating our collective ages (literally).
I wouldn't put too much emphasis behind the FCC's investigation as Apple's move of removing Google Voice from its apps store hasn't broken any of the FCC's 347 billion rules.

Yay, the final Fallout 3 dlc is here and I can finally delete Fallout 3 off of my hard drive.
I heard someone on Xbox live say that they wouldn't play with Milo unless he could beat the crap out of him, which is not as bad as the guy who said he wanted to molest Milo.
I hope I get Rock Band 2 or Prototype from gamefly because they can be quite elusive.

My PS3 blew up on Saturday when I was trying Fat Princess out, I heard a huge bang, sounded like a light bulb bursting and I even saw a flash in the case. HDD is wiped clean and Uncharted is stuck inside. The CS rep didn't really seem to know what to do, I'm pretty sure she was reading from a guide.
So I ended up trying Splosion Man, it reminds me big time of how hard games use to be but it was pretty fun. I also busted out Halo 2 and remembered how awesome that game was because of the maps, Halo 3's maps are pretty lackluster.

Wow a Three's Company reference. It makes me sing the theme song in my head every time. Larry cracked me up. And Terri was hotter than Chrissy.
Come and knock on our door, we've been waiting for you.....
You know if that song was sung in any other tone but upbeat it would just sound creepy.

The Google CEO Eric Schmidt has stepped down from the Apple Board!
I think the FCC is going to pile drive the iPhone wide open and I'm all for it.

Old man Furley, you know that show was one of those groundbreakin, no subject is taboo type of TV that was probaly before its time. Just like ole Archie and Meathead.
