Cartridge Blowers Episode 84: Fred Durst, Videogame Journalist

Eric Brasure and Richard Goodness | Jan 31, 2011 | 0 comments

It’s been a very topsy-turvy week. Nintendo, answering a question no one asked, says that no 3DS Lite is forthcoming. Meanwhile, Capcom announces that it will in fact release games this year. And Democratic Representative Joe Baca introduces a bill to compel videogames to carry warning labels. But it’s not all bad! Richard finished Dead Space 2, and Eric beat Ghost Trick. Boy, if it weren’t for videogames, we’d probably be out murdering people. Wait—EA gave Darkspore a release date? Pass us our guns.

Someone decides that what the world needs is a Smurfs dance game for the Wii. And Eric finally plays a 3DS and thinks it's the worst.
