Witness the awesome power of Feedback's Fully Operational Battle Staff! We've finally ramped back up to full speed with Adam Sessler, Abbie Heppe, Steve Johnson and yours truly to bring you the latest episode of Feedback, which is highly collectible since it's only the second episode of the entire year. Pick it up while it's fresh! And now with lots more Sessler.
While there's no new game currently occupying our brains 24/7, there's a lot of news, details about our favorite gadgets and gizmos from CES, and as always, titles still ahead on the horizon. Listen to us ramble, answer your questions, and pose even more as we delve into the world of video games.
What did we talk about? Glad you asked! If you're not inclined to immediately watch the show, here's a handy primer to whet your appetite.
- World of Warcraft: Cataclysm sold one hundred billion copies. Or some such number like that.
- Microsoft ships (not sells) eight million Kinects in two months. I need to open a shipping company.
- The Nintendo DS has become the best selling game unit ever. Does that include chess sets?
- Nintendo also warns parents to think about their children's eyeballs.
- Skyrim details emerge! But don't include a pronunciation guide.
- Adam is baffled by the PlayStation Phone.
- And more!
Feedback: Where our favorite gadget is the poorly stocked vending machine in the breakroom.

Why is everyone making a big deal about that stupid air freshener? I didn't even notice until you guys pointed it out.
Also, why the hell is Angry Birds such a big deal? Weren't there HUNDREDS of "knock s*%t over" flash physics games all over the internet JUST LIKE Angry Birds? I completely understand why something like Plants vs Zombies got it's attention, because it's slightly more ORIGINAL (I don't play that either, but still).
Steve Johnson, you get no backlash from me, sir. Until someone explains this obsession to me, I shall wholeheartedly agree: ANGRY BIRDS SUCKS.

I diagree with Adam on this, the fact is Microsoft has sold 8 million or so, unless the ones that retailers are selling are loners? The stores bought them, they may of not been bought by consumers yet, but the units were sold by Microsoft. I know sort of splitting hairs, but the truth.

So funny your talking about the uselessness of Kinect. I picked one up for the hell of it with some extra money from Christmas. Ya know how many times I have played it in the past month? twice. It sucks the Kinect Hub is a joke, the games are a joke. It's not really that great. I have a huuuge family room. And I mean out of the ordinary big. I still have issues with Kinect Adventures. Not a fan. I'm only holding onto it in hopes that some decent games come out. Very disappointed in it.

LOL We are teaching are kids the wrong thing about nature. Birds are bad but tiger cubs can be pet and played with. There is something wrong with that.

To End All Wars is an upcoming 1st person shooter taking place during WW-I. I'm looking forward to seeing how the developer Chemistry does with this.

Visions bad, so any typos or mis-spellings are going to stray that way.
Jordi/Gordi from StarTrek, hmm, in FeedBack, seems more loike the dude should do a cameo on Reading Rambo instead, with Worf, or any other Trekdter Stars. Thoguh I would like to see what an informed sit in guest/'s would be to add to the mix, for questioning and opinion, though I suppose it would be more for nalysis and opinion than specific interview stuff, may even be infectious twards the guests so they can contnue theconversatuons back wherever it is they work at and with.
Navigating menus like Minority repoer, does actually sound awesome, I can't wait untill Microsoft gets all the test market data from their new thang, to fully intergrate into whatever their next version of a PC is. Until then, Wiulding a Light saber, in one hand wjile useing force powers with another, in a mmo type of environent is still something I want and need. These are not thge doids you are looking for.
Could you imagine office video meetings using avatars instead of actual faces, to make it worth while to deck out the avatars I guess officers would have special access to certain acceroies, while earned actual bonus merits would be needed for pther employees to accuire their own look, not to rep[lace bonuses , but for recognition of an upcoming genreations mindset and upbringing, damned socialk-0network jukie kids.
Games, ahem reral games and Facebook Bejeweled a real game Castlr Age. the last one I played on fbook not so much, but would be sweet as hell or heaven to see it as one in any genre besides a fbook app. Remembering thge popular ones from mySpace whoa mySpace oh nostalgia and the similar ones to exact same ones on Fbook well there are already solid fan-base's for those games um, vampire wars, mafia wars farm-ville a couple other well a shoot ton of others but the better ones they could grow up annnnd like bejeweled apparently is with apple and possibly f-book, all the stats levels bonuses everything already built up could find a way to sync up to a system game or ps phone game siince its all the phone people that already spend their time on those sites socialy and mobily. the 2d avatars can translate to a 3-D version but with all earned special event collectors stuff for bragging . That could at least make like almost 700 dollars but don't quote me on it, how muchis zynga stock? probly less than f-books for now. I'm sure it could be connectified as well.

@ Adrianrxs - My theory on Abbie's eyes is that she stays up till 3am every night playing shooters. The human eye was not made for such strain. Didn't she hit prestige 3 in the first week? Seriously, watch Abbie's appearances from the week Black Ops launched up until now. That first week it looked like she had been hit by a truck. She's looked progressively more alert and alive as the novelty of the game has died off. But you can tell that she still isn't getting much sleep.
