There has been a lot of hubbub about the game MadWorld and how it’s single handly ruined the Nintendo Wii’s family friendly image with its unnecessarily, over-the-top violence. I’d lament about how simultaneously ridiculous and depressing this is, but I feel I’ve already covered this topic sufficiently when I covered the Top Gun documentary.  Instead, I figured I’d point you towards this article by Destructoid’s Jim Sterling. He does a far better job of explaining things than I ever could.

Speaking of accountability, I just wanted to point out that there won’t be a podcast this week-end, nor will there be one the following week-end. The Northern Geekcast should return to its regularly scheduled intervals starting on March 28th. Thanks for understanding!
