Kombo Breaker - Episode 29: Brad Went to Vegas!

Alright, look... don't get mad because we're late. Memorial Day Weekend was murder on the crew. Matt's packing up body parts, Dan's playing rock concerts in Cincinnati, Brad's hanging out with strippers in Vegas and Joey's playing golf while drinking beers. Manly things, can't help it.

So Brad went to Vegas. We get to talk to him about Prototype because of it. Activision gave him hands-on time with Prototype and Transformers 2. Kombo's own Casey Ayers went to Vegas as well. You can read his preview of Prototype here.

Catch this week's edition of Kombo Breaker. We'll have one more before we launch into E3. Get pumped up for that.

Kombo Breaker - Episode 28: Bogus Reviews

Slightly late but just as good as always, we take X-Men Origins to task and further extol the virtues of fighting off Zombies with a bevy of foliage. The guys have been busy trying to prepare for E3 as well as Dan tries to stay sane while finishing his final quarter of college.

The second half of the show takes on the dirty duty of attempting to call out fellow journalists. If you weren't familiar with the Darkfall scandal that went down last week, the KB cast will bring you up to speed and try to figure out what might have been a better way to handle it all. This is another great episode of Kombo Breaker you won't want to miss.
