GI Show 156: EA's Star Wars, Mario Minis, Ace Patrol
With regular host Matt Helgeson out of town, GI's Adam Biessener steps in on a week without a standout game release. At least Electronic Arts and Disney made some news by announcing a partnership for Star Wars video games.
The usual three-segment format survives the hosting controversy, though. After chatting about our hopes for EA's recently announced stewardship of the Star Wars license with Joe Juba and Matt Miller, Bryan Vore relays his experiences with Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move and Sid Meier's just-released iOS game, Ace Patrol. Finally, Tim Turi and Kim Wallace join Adam to close out the show with a PSA to Microsoft and Sony with the mistakes we've seen in previous console generations that we just shouldn't have to put up with in the next.
