This week! Voicemails, tweets and whatcha been playingses. In the first segment we cover a lot of ground, from favorite platformers and Sony's new ad campaign to utter disappointment at Best Buy's The Beatles Rock Band demo day. Games discussed during this 149th show include Dissidia: Final Fantasy, Tales of Monkey Island Chapter 2, Batman Arkham Asylum, Uncharter, Shadow Complex, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Warriors Orochi 2 (PSP), Madden 10 and Peggle.

Beware potential spoilers for the first hour or so of Batman Arkham Asylum from 1:03:25-1:13:00.

And that, friends, is this week's episode. Note, although this episode is called Diabolical Boxes, we barely talk about the sequel to Professor Layton that came out last week.

POP Ep.146: Press A to Hit Ball (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
This week! All four hosts are back to talk about games. Voicemails, tweets, what'cha been playin'--this episode is packed. It's also a bit late to publish, and in the rush it's not as carefully edited as usual. Since Greg Ford hit his mute button about 35 minutes in for about 10 minutes you may hear some silent patches there when he would normally be speaking--feel free to add your own dialogue in for fun (kind of like an audio Mad Libs). Some of the games discussed in this episode include Wii Sports Resort, Prototype, Monkey Island, the NXE update, Turtles in Time Re-Shelled, Fat Princess, Call of Juarez and more. Enjoy.

POP Ep.116: End of an era, start of another (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
No game talk this week. Instead, we dedicate the whole episode to talking about EGM's closure and the 1UP layoffs in the wake of Hearst/UGO's purchase of 1UP.com. In addition to regular hosts Chris "CJ" Johnston (ex-EGM News Editor) and Phil Theobald (ex-EGM editor and former GameNow Reviews Editor), we welcome a couple more ex-Ziff guests to the program: Kevin Gifford (ex-1UP editor and gaming magazine expert/Magweasel), Greg Sewart (ex-EGM Previews and Reviews Editor), Greg Ford (EGM Managing Editor), and Andrew "Skip" Pfister (ex-EGMer, GMRer and 1UP.com Reviews Editor/Podcast Producer).

POP Ep.115: To and Fro (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
It's just CJ and Phil this week in a low-key episode to start off the new year. In it we talk games, our new years', iPhone games, and lots of other stuff. Not so much talk about new games since nothing new's come out. But we discuss a little Pac-Man CE, Katamari iPhone, Rolando, Picross DS, Game & Watch Collection and Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection, among some others.
