That title may confuse you. Let's just say, it all gets clear in the last 10 seconds of the show. This week, we had yet another guest fall through (what is it with us? Oh yeah, ComicCon week), so GamerEdie Sellers and Commander Tim are joined by Kropotkin (aka: Chris O'Regan) from SuperHappyFunTimeShow. Topics include:

• Gamasutra says we're starting to see the death of the rhythm game.
• The official Tron Legacy trailer is orgasmic.
• So, how much kickback does it take to get to the center of PC Gamer's editor in chief?
• Halo Chronicles, whatever it was, is dead.
• Double Fine countersues Activision claiming it's trying to kill Brutal Legend. Ya think?
• Random Shit, tons of email, tons of voice mail.
• A Very Special Moment with Simon DI.
• Oh, and did we mention that Tron Guy's roommate is a sex-crazed furry?

Enjoy.

Bet you thought we forgot about you. We didn't. In fact, neither did the Digital Cowboys, That One Guy Ry the iPhone Guy and the Sportshound WillG. They do their best to cuddle up close and say, "Hello, sailor. Looking for a good time?" Okay. That was weird. Enjoy.

All you long-standing GameHounds listeners will be pleased to know that, this week, GamerEdie Sellers holds down the fort solo with special guest Elaine Garbarine (aka: etDragon) from Some Other Podcast. You'll be thrilled because you'll remember that Elaine was the partner in crime with Edie in the infamous Estrogen and Alcohol episode, wherein both got extremely ripped on the podcast. This time, they're a year older and a year wiser. They only brought caffeinated drinks. But there was so much news this week, there was no shortage of sweet, sweet gaming-news lovin'... with a girlie twist. They bring home the bacon, fry it up in the pan... you know the rest. How do they do it? By chatting about:

• Activison reveals its profiteering-level prices for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 in the UK. Anal rape ensues.
• Sony lays off 5 percent of its Sony Online Entertainment division.
• Rock Band Network coming to your Xbox 360 in August.
• Realtime Worlds' CEO blames GameStop for the failure of Crackdown.
• Random stuff: Left 4 Dead mod, Assassin's Creed PSP details, XBL update weirdness, Fallout 3 DLC pricing, Heavy Rain, LucasArts annoucements, Alan Wake.

Enjoy.

A yes. Birds. Big, loud bluejays. Have I mentioned they're loud? No, Edie and Commander Tim didn't record this episode in an aviary. It's just that, only after we recorded, did we notice that we had a third host: The bird. And we also had a bunch of other guests. Because it was another Guest Roulette night due to a scheduling snafu with the Very Special Guests we promised last week. But no worries, we did chat about these topics:

• We give away the Dragon Age book. Finally.
• Battlefield 1943 is a great game and a cockup of the first order.
• 2K Games adds a fourth developer to Bioshock 2.
• Hawkes says Tim and I are morons for saying we'd pay for a PS2 emulator for the PS3... Well, he does actually use more colorful language.
• Eidos reportedly has promised pre-embargo coverage for magazines that give a front-page placement and a 90 percent score.
• Random stuff, email, voicemail.

Enjoy.

Hey. Check it out! Finally you're going to get a Humpdate! This week it's a short cast, with One Guy Ry the iPhone Guy and the Digital Cowboys. I know. Been so long you almost forgot their voices. Well, curl up and get reacquainted. Enjoy.

What is Alpha Proto-Maul, you ask? Well, it's a new game in which GamerEdie Sellers, Commander Tim and special guest Hendrix from Superhappyfuntimeshow invite Matthew Rorie of Obsidian Entertainment onto the show and then maul him with questions about the studio's Alpha Protocol. And boy, is it fun. Yes, you read that right. Want to find out the deets about what looks to be the heir apparent of Mass Effect (well, if you don't count Mass Effect 2)? This would be your show. And thanks Matthew for being a sport! In addition, we have the regular line up of GameHounds news, views and commentary, including:

• Reintroducing... Chewie Nutshit.
• Sony flies a patent for a Playstation 2 software emulator. Where have we heard that before??
• Valve says Left 4 Dead 2's pre-orders are beating the pants off Left 4 Dead 1's numbers.
• Valve also promises DLC for the original Left 4 Dead and asks you to be patient to understand its reasoning for a sequel so soon.
• Midway's studios not part of the sale to Warner Bros. will remain open for 60 days.
• Random stuff, voice mail, emails, thank yous.
