Burnout Paradise hits the 360 and PS3 on Tuesday, so we spend some time talking about the series' history and its journey from being an Acclaim-published title that no one paid attention to to one of the biggest game franchises around.

Also this week, we talk about some of the games we've been playing, including Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Rock Band, Boogie Bunnies, Metal Slug 3, Omega Five, Bonk 2 and Just Cause. Next week's game club game is Ninja Gaiden (NES). If you'd like to participate in the fun, play it, discuss it on our forum, call our voicemail and tell us your memories/thoughts on the regular 8-bit NES version.

In a clever scheme to tie the episode number into the content of the show, this week we spend some time talking about the Nintendo 64. From Project Reality to the limitations of the cartridge format to the system as a turning point for Nintendo's position in the industry, we talk about it all. Also, the first installment of a new segment where we pick a retro game and break it apart. We start with Star Tropics, and if you're a fan...you might not like what you hear.

We also discuss the games we played this week, which includes Tron, NFL Tour and Omega Five.

This week, we take a few moments to ponder the year ahead with some predictions and issues that the big three need to address. But not before we get Dan's Top 5 of '07, talk Dormerbot for a few, and catch up on the games everyone's been playing this week. Oh, and a CJ vs GJ gamerscore update, of course.

This week -- a look-back on the year that was 2007. A little rundown of the big headlines, a little discussion of our personal Top Fives for the year, and your calls on gaming highs and lows of the year. Oh, there's also a What'cha Been Playing segment in there, and the first appearance of a new fourth host.
