The Bobby Blackwolf Show - May 27, 2012
In a sad ending to last week's news, 38 Studios and Big Huge Games have laid off all of their staff. Might it turn into a criminal investigation?
A judge has recommended that the Xbox 360 be banned from import into the United States due to patent litigation from Motorola.
The real money auction house in Diablo 3 (why you have to be always connected to play a singleplayer game) isn't coming anytime soon.
The lid has been busted off as to how and why so many Xbox Live accounts have been "jacked" - not hacked. Microsoft, however, says it's still not an issue.
Then we take calls about impersonations on PSN, Max Payne 3, and more geeking out over Minecraft 360.
Tune into VOGNetwork.com on Friday, June 1st at 10PM ET/7PM PT for the exclusive First Annual VOG Virtual Media Briefing Extravaganza!
The Bobby Blackwolf Show - May 20, 2012
This week has been a bevy of bad news for the biggest PC game release of the year - Diablo 3.
First, people who preordered the game from GAME Australia were left out in the cold while the retail chain went into administration, but Blizzard came through to help them out.
Then, Error 37 crops up for those who did buy the game, and they couldn't buy the game. Clerks jokes abound!
I played a little bit more of Minecraft 360, and I'm warming up to it.
Because Facebook's IPO didn't go as planned, Zynga's stock also took a stumble and even stopped trading.
The State of Rhode Island is in the news a lot over 38 Studios, and we try to give an overview of what is actually happening.
Then we take calls about Diablo 3, and how to listen to the VOG Network on a PS3.
The Bobby Blackwolf Show - May 13, 2012
The first item we talk about probably won't help you listening on the podcast, but you could have gotten Midnight Club 2 on PC for free by joining the official Rockstar Group on Steam. But, you can join the VOG Network group on Steam even after May 15th!
Minecraft 360 has broken sales records on Xbox Live Arcade, but announcing that has shown there might have been some preferential treatment.
We also talk a little bit about the game (impressions from the demo) and how it is different from the PC version.
If you want to buy games on Steam, but don't want to use your credit or debit card, you now have an alternative...And neither side is too happy about it.
The Xbox 360 is rumored to get Internet Explorer 9 with Kinect support.
Information about the real money auction house in Diablo 3 has been released...And we talk about how much money Blizzard will take in from each successful sale.
We don't take many calls because we were recording on Mother's Day, but one person called in just to call, so we talked about The Pirate Bay telling Anonymous to stop censoring other people.

Hope you didn't want to go to Seattle over Labor Day, as PAX Prime badges completely sold out in mere hours. (Dragon*con memberships are still available!)
There was a snafu for the iOS game Rock Band, where they claimed the app would be disabled on May 31st, and then EA Mobile reversed their stance.
Germany has banned the Xbox 360 as well as other Microsoft products due to a patent dispute on the H.264 video codec.
Microsoft has announced a $99 Xbox 360 that is subsidized by two years of Xbox Live...And it's NOT a deal.
Then we take calls about PAX Prime, the $99 Xbox, and EA's Indie Bundle.
Stay tuned at the very end for an outtake that is a first for Bobby in his almost seven years of internet radio.
The Bobby Blackwolf Show - April 29, 2012
It's our first show on our new network, the Voice of Geeks (VOG) Network! The new coat of paint is still drying, so please watch where you lean.
But, this is still a video game show, so we talk about EVE Online, and how a group of players want to completely destroy the in-game economy, and CCP Games is going to do nothing to stop it.
Sony is getting their Smash Bros on with PlayStation All-Stars: Battle Royale.
Nintendo will be releasing full retail games as digital distribution on the 3DS and Wii-U.
Zynga has posted a record loss despite having a record number of players.
Then we take calls about the VOG Network, Settlers of Catan, EVE Online, and Ubisoft's Wii-U trailer.
