GameTrust Podcast 19: Plexigas Edtion

And That's Saying Something.

Yeah, I spelled that right. It's the plexi "Gas" edition. Listen to the podcast and you'll get it. Anyway, Ivey, Matthew, and Allie join forces to bring you an insightful but very funny GameTrust Podcast. Allie turns into our personal laugh track.

We discuss Batman 3, Playstation's new Netflix app, Halo Reach, and our discussion of the week has to do with the gap of violence and sex in the ratings system. Why is there such a disconnect between the two? Believe me we all have opinions about that.


GameStop is having some great deals this month so make sure you check those out in the deal section after the break.

Inception: My Different Take



Inception is a great movie. It’s everything this movie goer could want. It has the escapism of Avatar, the superb story telling of The Dark Knight, the metaphysical headiness of The Matrix, and heist and espionage elements of movies like Ocean’s 11 and Where Eagles Dare. Some would say it has it all.

Inception dives into our brains and causes us to ponder a part of ourselves that we rarely, if ever, have control of--Our dreams. It makes one ponder about the reality of the world we live in and the meaning of life all together. For that reason this movie is not for everyone. Following the break you will not find a review of the movie but a look at its themes and questions. If you would like a well written review head over to Ebert’s review. If you’d like to see how it relates to the family see Plugged-In Online’s review. I agree with both wholly. Warning spoilers will follow the break>>

Weekend Movie Review Round up

Thinking about about going to see a movie this weekend? Do you want to see if it's family friendly? Fear not I have Plugged-In Online's latest reviews. Plugged in is a family organization run by Focus on the Family. I encourage you to read there reviews before bringing kids out to any film.

I have not seen either of these films. I plan on seeing Inception with my wife, but don't care too much about The Sorcerer's Apprentice. It is curious to see Plugged-In recommend The Sorcerer's Apprentice with its sorcery theme. Read the review and come to your own conclusion on both movies.



Watch for my personal impressions regarding Inception next week. If you've seen the movies please email us your impression but it would be even better if you would post your impressions or recommendations below.

GameTrust Podcast 18: Joyful Edition


We're finally back. Yes, we know that you've been hovering over your computers DYING for us to post a new podcast. We here at The GameTrust would like to offer our deepest apologizes. It has been a month since our last podcast and that's about three weeks too long.

We discuss some wicked good deals on Dragon Quest IX and other DS games. If you don't know what 4k resolution is we also give our best explanations... to be honest we're not completely sure of the point of 4k. If you listen you'll understand. And as always we can't forget Krabby. He's our favorite Pokemon.

GameTrust Podcast 17: E3 Edition


E3 is over. Man time flies! It seems like not that long ago I was thinking about how far off E3 was. Well, Ben and Ivey couldn't not talk about all the crazy developments and surprises that popped up. You won't want to miss this E3 wrap up discussion.

We'll talk about the 3DS, Kinect, Move, and a ton of game announcements. We're sorry this one is a little late, but if you'll forgive us we'll just ask you one thing. Rate us and comment us on iTunes. If you do that and then email us your address we'll send you a free bowl of cereal. And We're not lying. You can trust us, because we're the GameTrust. Listen below, but we'd prefer you subscribe on iTunes.

Weekend Movie Review Roundup

So what are you going to see at the movies this week? I've round up some reviews of the big movies coming out this weekend. If you guys like this I'll continue to do it every week.

This is how it works. Because I don't have infinite time or funds (Though I wish I could find a Game Genie code for that) I'm putting up reviews of the movies from other sites. One of the links will be to a family friendly site and the other will be to a regular type movie review site. Read them both if you'd like and figure out which movie is right for you.

The A-Team


The Karate Kid


My pick for the week goes to Karate Kid. It seems pretty safe, and I'm actually excited about it. I wonder if he'll be "The best around?" We can only hope so.

GameTrust 16: Beaver Fever Edition



This is our sweet sixteen. Allie, Ben, and Ivey will entertain you during this weeks podcast. We enjoy cookies and ice cream during the podcast. If you want some you'll have to travel back in time and knock on our door... I liked to see that happen. We talk about iPhone 4, The Dark Knight's failure, and the Rush Limbaugh movie (huh?). Yeah, that last one is legit. Ivey also comes up with a new catch phrase that may have run its course during the podcast. You be the judge.

Also listen in for our deals of the week. If you're cheap like us this is a gerat section. You can click on the links past the break in this post to find the gaming deals.

Remember to email us and comment us on iTunes. If you do we'll send you a free bowl of cereal. Subscribe below!
