Summary

Burnout Paradise hits the 360 and PS3 on Tuesday, so we spend some time talking about the series' history and its journey from being an Acclaim-published title that no one paid attention to to one of the biggest game franchises around.

Also this week, we talk about some of the games we've been playing, including Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Rock Band, Boogie Bunnies, Metal Slug 3, Omega Five, Bonk 2 and Just Cause. Next week's game club game is Ninja Gaiden (NES). If you'd like to participate in the fun, play it, discuss it on our forum, call our voicemail and tell us your memories/thoughts on the regular 8-bit NES version.

Thanks for listening! You can leave us a voicemail comment by calling 713-893-8069 or you can send a comment via MP3 to our email address, playeronepodcast@gmail.com. Don't forget to join our forums if you haven't already!

0:57.3	I could catch him.
0:59.0	I caught you.
0:59.8	Not a chance.
1:00.5	To be fair, you should subtract a thousand of those points because they are their avatar based.
1:08.9	Hey, speaking of a gamer points, what's your gamer score, CJ?
1:13.3	It hasn't changed from last week, so I think it's still 94-73.
