Eurogamer.net Podcast #52

Hacking, cheating and rants.

Eurogamer's second podcast of 2011 is also Eurogamer's 52nd. Coincidence? Of course! This week, host Tom Champion is joined by editor Tom Bramwell and news editor Wesley Yin-Poole for chat, topical debate and rant after rant after rant about Twitter.

The infamous PlayStation 3 Jailbreaks is the recipient of the podcast's first heavy-duty discussion. What's it all about? What does it all mean? What happens next? And why has Infinity Ward blamed Modern Warfare 2 hacking on Sony? Answers to these questions and others you never thought of asking await those brave enough to listen.

Headlines, context and quotes. Editor Tom Bramwell responds to a tweet by Tim Moss of Sony Computer Entertainment Santa Monica, who had a go at Eurogamer last week about a news story. You won't want to miss this.

There's also some chat about how three-on-three fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom 3 will weed out the rage quitters, glitches in games and horses. And horses on the end of knives.

And, at some point during the podcast, which may or may not be the very end, we give away a code for the Forza 3 Community Choice Classics Car Pack. Tom delivers those hyphens with a special something, doesn't he?
