Topics include the intuitive nature of the PopCap game design, the “casual” gaming market, the success of the mobile gaming market, the progress of PopCap games for the Wii, Android, and Palm Pre, the transition of game sales to the digital download medium, the future of PopCap games, the release of a new Peggle next week, and much, much more!

In this week’s episode we have an extended version of “What ya’ Been Playin’” mainly consisting of us bull shitting and Josh singing Asia. We then discuss a possible Disney purchase of EA and the effects it could have on the industry.

The panel tackles whether this is just or not. For our main topic, we briefly discuss horror in video games.

Sorry for the late release of our first mini segment but here is November’s first segment Obey the Hatefist with Brant and George. This month’s episode the two MMO whores discuss the glory days of Ultima Online and how current gen games compare poorly. They also tell what future episodes will pertain to, and general MMO aspects that they believe need to be tweaked.

This week we welcome a new addition to our panel, Brant. We discuss Star Wars for quite a bit and the return of the old E3. In addition, we tell our listeners which one of the newest video game blockbusters (Far Cry 2, Spiderman: Web of Shadows, Fallout 3, or Dead Space) they should spend their hard earned cash on.

Note: Pixels to Polygons is welcoming a slew of changes. We added Brant to the panel and we will also have two podcasts a week starting this week. The regular Pixels To Polygons will be released on Mondays or Tuesdays. In addition, we will release a 5 minute podcast on Fridays. Each week a different podcast developed by each person from Pixels To Polygons will be released. The first week of the month, Josh will release his video podcast Retro Rediscovery. The second week, Jake will release his hardware podcast, Hardware Hub. The third week, George and Brant will release their podcast, Obey the Hatefist that discusses MMORPG’s. As you probably notice, we are short one week. The final week of the month we will release a 20 minute podcast where the whole Pixels To Polygons panel will get together to discuss a predetermined game they had played all of the previous month.
