March 8th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

 

As The  Gamerhusbands  approach worldWide status, we decided to turn the temperature up a little bit. Is this an excuse to put two hot girls on the website? Maybe, but that’s not the rub. No pun intended. We love to hear what our community thinks.  Send us your questions or comments about the show to our LoveSack(lovesack@gamerhusbands.com). It isn’t called the LoveSack for nothing, so we also welcome relationship emails too. Now, the red hot email inbox needs no introduction. HATEMAIL(hatemail@gamerhusbands.com). Feel free to tell us how you really feel about the show. Is there too much Halo and Final Fantasy talk? We got your messages, so we will slow down on the boring stuff. We can take the heat, so don’t be afraid to dish it out. Don’t worry, we won’t be crying in the locker room after each show. A wise man once said that too many meefing podcasts failed because they couldn’t take the heat. Hmmm…..Where is my Super Mario Brothers fire suit? I have some hatemail to attend to.

Final Fantasy IV: Complete Collection headed to PSP

February 5th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

Is the PSP dead? No, screams Cecil and Kain from the world of Dragoons and Paladins! Final Fantasy IV was a major milestone in JRPGs, because it revived the Final Fantasy franchise. The series was becoming stagnant due to the constant light vs. dark theme. FFIV changed the formula by introducing new plot elements to the series which include; constant squabbling, heartbreak, betrayal, and scariest of all……..death. Yes, not everyone makes it to the end of the rainbow. Oops, should i have put in the **Spoiler Alert** tag for a 20 year old game?

Vote With Your Gaming Dollar

January 24th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

This response was written by longtime listener and  part of the GamerHusband’s family, TigersEye. It was written in response to the article written by Alfred concerning the uproar towards Activision.

I can understand the UK’s frustration if bugs on their system are not getting fixed while other systems are…but this letter sounds like one big angry fanboy cry for attention. The letter bases itself that Activision and Treyarch are intentionally ignoring the PS3 and PC consoles based on smaller percentage of market as compared to the 360. I am sure that Microsoft purchasing exclusive license rights to DLC (where DLC comes to the Xbox system first and then other platforms later) does not help the feeling of being ignored…but these facts do not prove negligence on the company’s part.

Black Ops Feedback Dept: Please submit all complaints to Sally

January 22nd, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

A group of people are threatening Activision with a lawsuit concerning the mismanagement of one of their properties. Does this even ruffle the feathers over there? Activision is currently entangled in a lawsuit/counter suit web with two people who fathered their billion dollar baby, Call of Duty. As reported by CVG, a group known as, Gamer’s voice, wrote an open letter to Treyarch/Activision concerning the multiplayer component of Black Ops on the Playstation 3.

Gamers banding together and speaking with a unified voice benefits everyone. Unity shows publishers that we aren’t a whiny bunch of brats that pound our fists when situations go awry. What is with the uproar toward Activision this time? Did anyone not play Modern Warfare 2 on the Playstation 3? Wasn’t MW2 plagued with massive amounts of errors and hackers? Yes it was, and players vented by hurling obscenities towards Activision.

So, let’s get to the root of the problem. This way please………..

Is this Stage worth Pre-Ordering Two Worlds II

January 19th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

Just in case you were on the fence about pre-ordering Two Worlds II, this freshly released video might tip your scales. The stage shown on the video, is full of action, and gives another glance on what Two Worlds II has to offer. The Combat seems more responsive and fluid, and the game looks surprisingly good.

Two Worlds II is slashing away at it’s stigma

January 17th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

Two Worlds was the first game that we talked about on GamerHusbands Radio. Now, we’re on the heels of the sequel’s release date, and Two Worlds II  doesn’t invoke the same snicker it’s predecessor did. The GHR crew were treated to a behind the scenes look at Pax East 2010, and the interest has been growing since.

Necromorph Invasion Imminent

January 16th, 2011
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"


In 2010 EA kicked off the year by releasing  Mass Effect 2, which was a game of the year contender.  Game companies feared releasing games in the winter, and EA dispelled the myth. Following the tradition, EA will release another AAA title in the winter. Dead Space 2 is on the horizon and expectations are high.  Isaac Clarke returns to impossible odds from fighting the Necromorphs on the USG Ishimura. How he survived the first game is nightmare inducing, but the story continues. The game begins with Isaac in an mental asylum dealing with his dead girlfriend hallucinations. Suprise, another outbreak occurs and it’s up to our plasma-cutter-of-the-year heroine to save the day again. He may be fighting more than Necromorphs.

Kmart is going for your wallet with great game deals.

July 11th, 2010
By: Alfred "GHR Maverick"

Kmart is going after your wallet the best way possible……by having great deals. Some of these are too good to pass up. The current pricing model, that all games should be $60, seems to be outdated, I will gladly take a backseat and tout some great deals of new games, which furthers my point about that pricing model. New games at lower prices = sales. It’s just simple economics son….simple economics
