Whooooooooo!! It's our Halloween show and Tom Chick is here to help us talk about scary games.  Danielle, Brandon, Todd and Bill are here too to talk about the difference between terror and horror, how to make scary games scary and the spine-tingling horror that is Power Gig.

Bill is on vacation this week but Tom Chick is more than happy to sit in and bring the sports rage!  Ok, that's a lie, but he does join Brandon, Danielle and Todd to talk about celebrity voice acting and other things including Ratchet and Clank, Civ and pinball.  Lots and lots of pinball.

Oh the horrors of focus groups.  First they harass you at the mall when all you're trying to do is buy some Shamwows and then they start getting all up in your game design.  This week on Jumping the Shark, Danielle, Brandon, Todd and Bill talk about when game designers start designing via focus group, or as we like to call it, the Peanut Gallery.

Hey, hey the gang's all here. Brandon, Danielle, Todd and Bill reunite to talk about what they've been playing (hint, it rhymes with Shiv Five) as well as get into what they think needs to be done to bring gaming journalism up from nothing but previews and reviews.  Oh, and we finally talk about Teh Haloz.  Here that Biff, this one is for you!
