Uncompressed Episode 43

After taking a couple weeks off for the holidays we are back with a MONSTER hour and a half show! There was so much crammed into this episode that there may be a few links I promised during the course of it that I have forgotten to post here… BUT FEAR NOT! Check back for updates as I will try to squeeze a few more items into this post as I get time to go back and pull them out of the episode.

So, what did we talk about for over an hour? HDTVs, Indiana Jones, Xbox 360 revision 2, Christmas Loot, Rayman Raving Rabbids, GameWith.Us, and a whole lot more. Did I just blow your mind? Yeah, I thought I did; check it out, yo.

Sorry for lowering the quality on the jpgs for the Photoshop contest — bandwidth is tight enough around here as it is without massive images all over. :p Thanks again to everyone that entered, and congratulations to the winners!

That does it for this week. If I missed anything let me know and I will try to fill it in. We should be back to our normal weekly schedule, so stay tuned!
