PlayStation Allstars let's four friends wail on each other, but will it be any fun? Also, are there many Smash fans in the PlayStation community?

DualShock & Awe #5 - Sony Needs To Be More Like Apple | Yes, it's a surprising conversation this week considering that most of the guys on the podcast don't use Apple products. Sony is restructuring their company to focus more on gaming, but should they go even further than that? Sony makes TV's, cameras, phones, computers, MP3 players, gaming devices of course, and also produces movies. Does Sony need to produce fewer products in order to give them the attention they need?

DualShock & Awe #4 - PS3.5 to be like Apple TV? | The three amigos (Josh, Cam, and Eric) are back this week and ready to dive into the future. With all this talk about the next PlayStation and the next Xbox, it got us wondering if our view of the future of gaming was all wrong. Could it be that the next PlayStation is going to be something along the lines of the Apple TV, with it being a diskless device used mainly for PSN games and Netflix? Also, if the Microsoft goes ahead and splits up their hardware into gaming and casual, how will it affect PlayStation? All this and more in the latest episode. | 3/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

DualShock & Awe - Bad Ending Minicast | It's time for another minicast! The controversy over the ending of Mass Effect 3 ending was too big for us to pass up.

One of the biggest things to come out was the release of the Kara video by Quantic Dream. Heavy Rain had some impressive facial animations, but so did other games like Uncharted 3 and L.A. Noire. Quantic Dream's next game is sure to blow them all out of the water with their next game.....in fact, it will blow the water out too! | 3/15/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

DualShock & Awe - Lame Joke Minicast | Actually, this is sort of a mega-mini cast with all the voicemails we got.

Just a reminder that the 5 games up for grabs areRayman: Origins, Asphalt Injection, Dungeon Hunter: Alliance, Lumines: Electronic Symphony and Michael Jackson: The Experience HD.

Great Stuff!
Been a follower of PSLS for a few months now, and it's part of my daily check-up (and by far my favorite stop). The best source for PS news (and awesome guides and reviews). I'm so glad they finally have a Podcast. Great job so far! Keep it up!
