Welcome to the Checkmate Arcade, your home for quarter munching fun. Each week we'll tell you what video games we've been playing and give you the hottest news right off the presses. We'll throw in the NPD numbers, top 5 lists, and release dates that are Coming Soon to round out the show as well. So, come on by each week for a great time.

This week we've got Street Fighter on the brain as we count the hours until the game is in stores. In the mean time Jason goes old school with Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection and he brushes up on his fighting skills in Turbo HD Remix. Steven's soul still burns for Soul Calibur 4 and he hops on a warthog to test drive the Halo Wars demo. The news dam breaks and we get flooded with 24 stories to send your way. We promise next week the features will return... unless the news gets crazy again.

Sorry for the delay folks, but we had some problems getting this episode recorded. This week we discuss Comic Con NY and what was on display for video games. Steven gives us his first impressions for some of the big name titles on the show floor. Jason searches for Alma in F.E.A.R. 2, then heads for Europe to play the uncut version of MK vs DC. The news is overflowing this week so there's no room for a feature. So, hop on that treadmill and join the fun.

This week the show may seem long, but don't be fooled. Only the fist hour and a half is video game related, the rest is about the cancellation of official UDE support for the VS System card game. For those of you interested in only the first half though, we have a great show for you. We try out the RE5 demo and discover that Steven needs to practice his teamwork skills. He, also goes through the roof with anger for God of War 2 and cools off with some World at War multiplayer. Jason hops in his DeLorean to go back to the future in Chrono Trigger and gets a beat down from a bag of bones in Order of Ecclesia. Plus, a metric ton of new game announcements in the news.

This week Jason and Steven dig into Fallout 3 at the same time. Plus, we find some fun downloadable content from EA and discover where Riddick has been hiding. The show starts off sleepy but ends up ranty, so kick back and enjoy.

Wow that's a lot of WOW. Jason finally gives you the long promised World Of Warcraft rant, along with a counter point from our guest Richard of the Fallout Shelter fame. We also get soaked with blood in Ninja Gaiden II, go under the sea in BioShock, and rant about the new evil that is buying demos. In the Bargain Bin this week we give you the master piece that is Portal. Remember to look both ways before jumping into the blue portal, cause the floor will kill you if you touch it.
