We have a live Q&A session with Richard Ross of Operation Rainfall to get their side of the story and how this organization of dedicated Nintendo fans is seeking the international localization of three Wii games. Then in our main topic we talk about World of Warcraft vs. Star Wars: The Old Republic. With Star Wars The Old Republic beginning beta testing, there’s a lot of buzz surrounding the release of this game. Will WoW retain its’ throne or will Star Wars usurp the the reigning MMORPG king?

Also we talk about bums, how to keep you bum fresh, and how to properly care for your bum……BUM!

A few weeks ago Brian and I did a Boomzies edition where we started things off with the Mass Effect 3 voting issue over the default version of female Commander Shepard (FemShep as she is known). I didn’t realize at the time that the voting wasn’t over. Apparently there was so much outcry about them choosing a blonde FemShep that the BioWare decided to reopen the polls to vote on her hair color.

Now what if you could switch the viewpoint? Instead of seeing the blocks from the outside in, see how the blocks see the world from the inside out. Well now you can. In first person Tetris, you take on the viewpoint of the Tetris block as it spins and the outside world turns in tandem.

I can so clearly see the plight of these poor blocks and it makes me understand them a little better. So will you take a little time and see what life is like from the view of a Tetri?
