09-23-09 Show Notes: 8bit Extravaganza
Hour 1:
Big shoutout to our special guests & newest addition to the 8bitX Radio Network Average Joe Gamer!

Also tremendous thanks goes out to Danny Danger for his guest picks of the week out of the new releases!
Danny's Pick of the Week: Halo: ODST
Danny's Weak pick of the Week: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

Our Pick of the Week: Zombie Apocalype
Our Weak Pick of the Week: Where's Waldo: Fantastic Voyage

Topic: Bosses & Enemies V
Minisite: http://www.8bitx.com/bosses/

We covered Mario 2 in this hour with 90% of the music from OC Remix's Mario 2 selection.

Hour 2:
We kicked it off with Steel Sterling spinoff comic reading, which contained one of the most gruesome visual depictions of violence I've ever seen... it was amazing!!

Creepy Craigslist came in from there, with a special list from IGN which creeped us out from Japan!!

Then we blew through Kung Fu's horde of enemies & bosses, and came into Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!

We looked at the time and knew that we could finish the game's opponents in this time, but to give it proper credit and do the game justice we decided to take our time...

Bonus Coverage:
All kinds of fun stuff happening after the bell!!
We had the debut of a new segment, though of by the 8bit wife, "The worst of the Web". This would be the songs that didn't make it onto the show, and the worst one gets the instant-fail Price is Right button treatment!
This week was a myspace contestant who screamed "Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!!" over and over again in what is simply the worst song I've heard in a long, long time. Probably ever. You have to hear the podcast for the reaction.

Music was provided by many new bands found via myspace and also the usual suspects with the OC Remix, Minibosses, Neskimos, and the Dwelling of Duels. We ended the whole night with Duane & Brando's Mike Tyson's Punch Out via youtube!

Thanks to all those listening live and joining us in the chatroom.
Goodnight!

OMFG: Konami's Zombie Apocalypse
KONAMI ANNOUNCES ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE FOR XBOX LIVE® ARCADE AND PLAYSTATION® NETWORK

Smash TV meets a horde of Zombies...... I LOVE IT!!

Using an array of up to 11 lethal weapons including assault rifles, flame throwers and a
teddy bear filled with C4 explosives, up to four players can play locally or via the Internet to stop the zombie attacks and rescue survivors as they compete for the highest scores.


Players can use a chainsaw to melee zombies and protect themselves against becoming one of the undead. As an added line of defense, players can also use environmental hazards to crush, burn, slice, or cause other types of destruction on the masses of zombies.

The action-packed, arcade-style shooter will test gamers' dual analog stick shooting skills and ability to survive 55 days of battles across seven environments, all the while attempting to not become a brainless zombie. Upon completing the mission, players can re-live the apocalypse with seven challenging unlockable game modes.
