    No Entendre Title Here

    posted @ 10/26/2009 08:13:00 AM by Ninjasistah
    Sure, it would be easy to make a double entendre title for this weeks new podcast episode but we take the high road here at Electric Sista Hood.

    Ok, actually we don't, but it was a fun way to start this podcast post. This podcast episode is ALL game, no anime, no gadgets. Pandalicious kicks off the hour with her final thoughts on the PSP game Obscure: The Aftermath by Playlogic, including a recommendation to play it on something soft. She says the game is scary, and you'll through your PSP around like a rag doll. Then she goes into a spiel about her first reactions to the new 2K Games title Borderlands and explores the parallels between it's gameplay elements and the PC title Diablo. We then have a spirited conversation about how to get PC gamers over to the console gaming side of the fence.

    Then I finish out the hour talking about my experience with the social stuff on the Xbox Live Preview including Twitter and FaceBook. Closing out the hour is NinJaSistah's review of the EA title Need for Speed: Shift on the PS3. It's a busy episode, here are some of the titles for it that we didn't use:

    • This One Made Me Sing to Barney 'Til Dawn
    • Beware Games With Boys Choirs
    • Skeeziest Line of the Year: "The Flower Inside Me Has Just Bloomed!"
    • There's a Monster That Will Snatch Your Attention
    • Ninja Likes to Mounth Things — CONFIRMED!
    • and finally

    • SixAxiS Is a Palindrome — So Is Dud.

    In this week's episode NinJaSistah and Pandalicious discuss some of the animated DC Comic movies that have been released lately as well as many of the DC based animated series and their impact on the mid-20-something crowd. The conversation that switches to some of the live action flicks including the Marvel options and then Pandalicious grabs the mic to talk movies.

    First up are Panda's post-viewing thoughts on the new "Where the Wild Things Are" movie, including who the best audience for the movie is and IS NOT. Then she moves on to "Law-Abiding Citezen" staring the very sexy [very Scottish] Gerard Butler. Finishing out the hour is NinJaSistah's post-mortem on the EA/Double Fine game Brütal Legend.

    Getaway Giveaway

    posted @ 9/22/2009 11:29:00 PM by Ninjasistah
    We mentioned this on the podcast and have it on blast this week but wanted to remind you that EA is running a great giveaway on Twitter right now that you need to check out.

    The giveaway is running THIS WEEK ONLY and ends at 11:59pm on the 25th. The neat thing is that the giveaway is simple to enter, does not require you to spend any money, and just might end up putting some Need For Speed: SHIFT but each day 30 or so folks that successfully complete little "missions" and notify the @NeedForSpeed on twitter will win concert tickets to artists featured on the NFS soundtrack, or copies of the game, hell, some lucky SOB is going to walk away with a BMW M3.

    You read that correctly. EA is giving away a BMW M3 to some lucky twitterer this week for participating in their NFS Twitter Contest. Would that be a TwitTest? I don't know, but if you aren't getting in on this one you don't deserve the internet.

    Follow @NeedForSpeed on twitter and enter each day. If you win something, let us know. If I win something believe me, you'll hear about it, especially if it's the M3!
