Dave, Jon, and Erich convene for what may or may not be the actual 50th episode (either way, we’ll celebrate the milestone next week) by eagerly anticipating Dante’s Inferno, giving the Wii some hard-hitting love in the form of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom, and heaping more praise on both games in the Mass Effect series. Are you tired of hearing us talk about Batman: Arkham Asylum? Good news: Erich finally finished it. Bad news: he talks about it one last time. To finish, this week’s Symposium Ad Nauseum takes us all around the world, from London to the Bay.

Proud papa Erich returns to the show and invites podcast family members Tim, Adam, and Jon to share in his joy and talk video games. The first segment is dominated by everyone’s excitement about Punch-Out!!, our news discussion takes a side trip into Hyrule to celebrate Majora’s Mask being the Wii Virtual Console’s 300th game, Jon can’t decide whether he’s more excited about Tatsunoko vs. Capcom coming to North America or the leaked trailer for Team ICO’s latest project, and the crew wonders whether it’s too late for Microsoft to enter the mobile gaming market. To finish, a roundtable on this week’s Symposium Ad Nauseum: Virtual Babiez. Feel free to cry, cry, cry in the comments below, or email us at feedback@pixelverdict.com.
