And by spoiler alert, we mean that Cooper Hawkes and Edie Sellers spoil everything from Modern Warfare 2 to Sixth Sense. Oh, and Rosebud was a sled. Whups! Did we say that out loud. When they're not reminding you that Soylent Green is people, Edie and Hawkes discuss:

• Electronic Arts shuts down Pandemic Studios. The Saboteur will release on time but will be the studio's last title.
• Mass: We Pray isn't real. It's a viral marketing campaign for Dante's Inferno.
• Sony's Kaz Hirai says that the company will release a non-game developer kit in Q2 2010.
• Britain's Government Communications Headquarters (its version of the NSA) recruits gamers through Xbox 360 Dashboard.
• Black Friday Deals: Our pick of the best we've found.
• Random Stuff, emails, and general weirdness.

Enjoy.

Oh, you think we're talking about the game. Well, it is a game, but not that one. You'll just have to listen to find out. This week, Edie Sellers and Commander Tim are joined by Holy Goalie of the GameHounds Sanctuary. In addition to discussing drinking games and scorpion bowls, they also get into the news of the week, including:

• Modern Warfare 2 blows every previous sales record out of the water, meanwhile cheif douchbag Bobby Kotick sells off 40 perecent of his holdings in the company at a cool $20 million profit. Hail, Satan!
• Ars Technica says skip the PC version of MW2 because it sucks. Bobby will get you, and your little dog Toto, too.
• Regie Fils-Amie says that Super Mario Brothers will outsell MW2. Eventually. And with caveats.
• Microsoft initiates a holy jihad on Live customers using modded Xboxes and bootleg disks, banning more than a million customers and soft-bricking their machines. Meanwhile, the semi-bricked 360s are now showing up on Craigslist dirt cheap.
• Alan Wake is rumored to be arriving in stores in May.
• Sega says it won't be selling Alien vs. Pretator in Germany. Sorry, Hansel.
• The Rumble Pack will join the GameHounds Humpdate staff when it comes back from vacation. Check them out!
• Random stuff, email, thank yous.

Enjoy.

Yes, more zombies it does have. And more Edie Sellers and more Commander Tim. But it's got less Cooper Hawkes. Crisp and clean! This week, Edie and Tim discuss:

• Congrats to Ben Hiebing of Sheboygan Falls, WI, for winning the Platform Nation pumpkin-carving contest.
• Netflix streaming on PS3 is getting the nerd-rage treatment.
• Direct2Drive, Impulse and Gamersgate all turn their backs on Modern Warfare 2 because of the imbedded Steam store.
• No Doubt sues Activision for turning frontwoman Gwen Steffani into a hermaphrodite.
• Kotaku's Michael Fahey notes that Activision's butchering of lyrics in Band Hero is ridiculous.
• Random stuff, voice mail, and fun, fun, fun.

Enjoy.

Ugh. Mongo like this episode. Balmer like, too. Commander Tim nice man. So is Cooper Hawkes. Edie Sellers have pretty face and nice voice. They talk games. And news. Lots of news. Week very big and full with news. They make Mongo laugh. They funny. Show this week include:

• Xbox Live Dashboard Update preview not nice. Mongo hate.
• Sony lose lots of money on Playstation 3. That make Mongo sad.
• Nokia stop support of N-Gage. Mongo sad about that, too.
• Sega Racing Classic, or another word for next Daytona game but without bad words like "Daytona" and "NASCAR," testing in arcades now.
• Balmer make mistake last week. Major Nelson correct. But maybe Balmer not make mistake and Major Nelson lie. Mongo confused now.
• X-Game finally make adapter for Xbox 360. Mongo say Microsoft can suck it.
• Nintendo announce new DSi called DSi XL. Will be larger.
• Random stuff, email and thank yous.
