Feedback -- Super Mario Galaxy 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops, & Beyond Good & Evil 2

I am a Mario super-fan, I'm not ashamed to admit it. That 's why I'm on this week's episode of Feedback, wherein we discuss Super Mario Galaxy 2, the plumber bros.' latest adventure in space/time. Adam, Abbie, Patrick, and special guest Morgan Webb are the other power stars on the panel, and they blow my mind when they tell me that the second player can also collect purple coins, making that whole endeavor significantly easier. Man, I wish I had friends.

Feedback -- Super Mario Galaxy 2, Call of Duty: Black Ops, Killzone 3 »

Elsewhere in this video program for the Internet:

Adam and I both saw Call of Duty: Black Ops in action, and Treyarch's first foot forward is an impressive one. You'll see what we saw at E3 -- until then, our verbalized impressions will have to suffice.
Another thing you'll see at E3 that I've already seen: Killzone 3. The second one didn't exactly win me over, but I'm actually looking forward to part 3. The shooting feels better, and it's got snow!
Everyone on the panel really, really, really wants Beyond Good & Evil 2 to come out, but are we setting ourselves up for disappointment? We address this week's cancellation rumors and keep hope alive.
Patrick played the new Harry Potter game, Deathly Hallows, Part 1, and has some reservations about Stupify being a rocket launcher.
Rockstar says they're not going to E3. We say, "Have you ever been at E3?"
Looks like David Cage is already casting for his next game. It won't be Heavy Rain 2, which means it's time to speculate on what it actually is! Probably something French.

Feedback: Coming up with amazing ideas and forgetting to follow through on them since 2009.

(Red Dead Redemption -- the game with horses that you can't stab in eye while naked -- is next week, partners.)

Max Payne ended with Marky-Mark shooting up the Aesir building, and then using the blue Aesir drug for a power up.
Mila Kunis snaps him out of the drug induced hallucination he was having.
Then he went up to the rooftop & gunned down General Landry/Beau Bridges.

I really agree with Morgan about the Mario thing and how it is just to cartoon like. I always wondered why I didn't care for it as much as I felt I should because I grew up playing mario games.

I'm not gonna like a 22 min feedback with commercial interuptions but being on tv will def. make it much more popular and more people will watch the show online.

About good video game endings. I'm sure a lot of people disagree but I was kind of a fan of how Assassin's Creed ended. The idea of the game breaking down into just a final out and out brawl just gives the illusion that the character's actions had enough of an effect on the game world that the "blade in a crowd" mentality is gone. That same idea happened in the final boss battle for MGS4. I think it helps to create the sense of compleating a journy because all the specialized moves and gagets are no longer effective or depleated.

thanks Morgan , i too are older and can't stomach the "Mario Look" in 2010.
HD please and enough with the wii controls.
Too many people just gave this a 10 without really breakin it down.

I have a quick, well rather not so quick question for you guys... In this episode you guys mentioned COD:BO and mentioned things such as napalm strikes, and i have noticed that even among my friends we can talk about these new weapons with excitement. But having recently done a little reading on war crimes and atrocities in vietnam, these in game weapons still represent something very real and in some cases very horrible, i guess what the question is, is do you guys think that videogames can be used to help change people's opinions on the history? If not, what place do you think it should hold in relation to real world issues? p.s. abbie's thumbs are not stubby they r pretty like the rest of her xD.

Awesome podcast-thing! I just discovered this and you definitely have +1 listener. Why isn't Morgan Webb on every episode though?

OMG Morgan Webb and Abbie Heppe in one room?! thats too much sexy for me to handle.

i saw the Harry Potter trailer and i think the new gameplay design will help the series. the last book was a very dark book and it was always a the world against harry and his friends. i think this new design will help bring that environment to live and make you feel like you're the only hope to save the world.
