Wahoo!
Yes, indeed. While I waited in the Zelda line at E3 this past year, Charles Martinet showed up!

Hot on the heels of Summer of Arcade, Microsoft offers a special return on Live Arcade investments
Considering the program a "Thank-you Gift," Microsoft announced that those who spend 2400 points on specific content during the month of October will receive 800 points back.
In this episode, PB and Jason goes where it's never gone before. Where? You'll have to listen and find out.
In this fascinating new issue of PB & Jason, Jason gives listeners a brief bio of every member on staff except Stanton Daries, and sheds light on a few little-known connections between himself, Nick, and OJ.
Jason gives his spoiler-free take on the latest video game movie.
I’d imagine many of you have read many of the mixed reviews for Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. That’s ok. I don’t mind being a little late to the table with my own opinion of the movie. Since we’re a video game site and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World is a movie, I’d prefer not to write a formal review, and instead, describe a little of how the movie works. From my opinion, as well as the others around the web, it should be easy to decide if the movie is worth being seen.
Zombie mailbag wants your brains. (In a good way.)
Avid fans of PixlBit (Read: Zap) may have noticed I've mentioned the idea of a solo podcast a few times in the past month. While at first, the idea was uncertain, as time passes, it seems to be more and more of a sure thing. How does Mailbag relate? I want to read and respond to listener mail! That's right. I want listener mail! I know the podcast hasn't yet begun, but it will soon, so why not get a head-start? You could be featured. You could be featured in the first edition of "JasonCast" or "PixlJalk," or whatever we decide to name the thing. How about, for the first episode, you send in suggestions for the title of the show? As always, suggestions can go to mailbag AT pixlbit DOT com, but in this case, they can also be sent to jasonr AT pixlbit DOT com, too.
The latest and greatest in dance pads is "Tough" indeed.
It’s been a while since I’ve pulled out the old Konami dance pad and played some DDR on the original Xbox. The long sessions and practice I put into the game in college got me pretty good at the game, and before long I was an expert DDR player. Performing the songs at that level really put a beating on the pre-packaged pad, and it slowly started to wear and lose accuracy as time went on. Hyperkin recently released a more durable version of the classic peripheral, which they have named the Tough Pad, and it certainly lives up to the name.
The Beatles were the first to receive their own game, now Green Day gets their time in the sun.
Now that music games have reached mass market appeal, both Harmonix and Activision have shifted focus to producing band-specific titles that encompass that artist's full career. The Beatles Rock Band was the first to truly nail the essence of a band and Green Day Rock Band is Harmonix's second attempt at doing just that. At a glance, the title does a pretty good job capturing their career in terms of song selections, but it does leave something to be desired in its presentation.
Because Capcom was kind enough to send us a 3:00 AM email, I figured I'd post it as a scoop.
Today, whatever you want to count today as, Capcom announced that Dead Rising 2 will be released on September 28th, a delay from the previously announced late-August date.
Players who have lost hope in the Driver series might want to look forward to taking it for another spin.
As time has gone on, the Driver series has become less and less relevant thanks to some sub par entries into the long running series. However, Ubisoft is trying their hardest to revamp the series and restore it to its once honorable position.
