• The main theme of the first half of this show is racism in games, primarily by Sony. First up, a blogger claims that Loco Roco contains racist imagery. Then, in the Netherlands an ad for the Ceramic White PSP has ruffled some feathers in California!
• Is Microsoft making Xbox 360 motherboards with HDMI ports?
• Or are they really working on their iPod killer with Xbox Live-like features?
• The Wii has been in production for a while - which makes October 18th all that much more likely. They aren't saying anything though.
• Square-Enix has told US game journalists to not talk about Valkyrie Profile 2, a game that is already out in Japan.
• There's a new serious game out there - Darfur is Dying - which is raising awareness of the plight of the Sudan refugees in Africa.
• Nominate us (or your other favorite independant podcast) in the 2006 Podcast Awards!
