While I know that everyone is anxiously sitting by their door waiting for Microsoft to ship out their new Xbox 360 slim bundled with the Kinect for all of the red ringed systems we've owned...anyone?...anyone? How about this guy who has been waiting for his 360 since 2006?

Well, while we are all waiting, I thought I'd take a moment to investigate how my living room would need to be set up to house the upcoming motion-sensing-monolith. This recent Major Nelson minute puts together a preparedness-list of what users should be considering for optimal Kinect-ocity.



This is a list reads like the warnings on Happy Fun Ball. Thank goodness we have a month to sell the coffee table on Craigslist, rearrange my furniture, even out the light in the room, sound proof my 360 and cut the vocal chords of all my roommates.

Following up a huge interview with voice over God, Liam O'Brien, the ++Good Games crew brings XSEED on board to talk about the new addition to the Y's series on PSP. XSEED's localization manager, Thomas Lipschultz, brings a massive amount of knowledge and passion to the podcast as he talks about "Y's SEVEN" which ships today (Tuesday, August 17th)!



In addition, we also sit down with Jimmy Soga from XSEED who talks about Sonic the Hedgehog co-creator Yugi Naka and his upcoming title, "Ivy the Kiwi?".
