This week's episode is all about getting to know the man, the myth, the legend: JVB. That's right, the podcast veteran and world famous Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator joins Golf Rat, Vicjo, Blueman and Faitios to drop some knowledge about podcasting, his Halo 'skillz' and more.
Plus, Golf attends his first gaming event and brings back some impression on Bayonetta and Dante's Inferno; Faitios has some additional thoughts about Borderlands and JVB talks about the prospects of Xbox Live moving forward.
Today we're talking about Rock Band 2 and an upcoming Xbox Live Arcade title called Age of Booty, that we are super excited about! We bring back a question of the week & are wondering if we should pick up a second XBOX 360 now that the price has dropped.... Hmm. What do you think?
We talk about hitting PAX last weekend, getting to meet a bunch of super cool community folks, including listeners of the show and site members! We also talk about Castle Crashers, Mercenaries 2: World In Flames and getting to check out Gears of War 2!
We're back this week and are getting ready for the Penny Arcade Expo - also known as PAX! We discuss what you might expect to see at the Xbox booth, and talk about getting to play Viva Piñata : Trouble in Paradise, Castle Crashers and more...
We're talking about Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2, Braid, the Fable 2 Pub games released on the XBLA this week and Nelson gives us his first impressions of Too Human! We (or at least I) have a few regrets about some of my previoius comments regarding HDTV. And we reply to a question from Cheeser101 who asks us how we feel about parenting & videogames.
Nelson hit Comicon last week and tells us about the strange & wonderful things that went down in San Diego. Were also talking about Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2, Braid, Bionic Commando, Galaga Legions & Castle Crashers! And we share your song list for Olivia Munns slow-jam mix.
We're talking about what went down behind the scenes at E3, including getting to interview the voice actors for Gears of War, Duffy - who will have a song in the upcoming Xbox 360 title, Lips and G4's Olivia Munn. Well, I'll let Nelson talk to you about that...
Alright, so if you've been tuning into the schnanagings of E3, then you know that Microsoft has announched a few things to look forward to this year. In this weeks (early) episode, we talk about Lips, We're in the Movies, Galaga Legions, the new Xbox Experience, Netflix hitting the Xbox Live Market Place (yay!) and Gears of War 2.
We're fashionably late!? Our recorder decided to play a funny game with us and did NOT record this week's episode. In fact, it only recorded 12 seconds of a 40 minute recording. Whack, right!? (and totally not funny)
We squeezed in a second recording, and in it we reflect on last year's E3 where Nelson pushed the "universal console" concept. We also talk about Schizoid - one of this week's XBLA title (and one of the best co-op XBLA arcade titles, IMO), Battlefield: Bad Company, and listener mail!
We're discussing Microsoft’s new DRM tool, advertisements in your entertainment and a real time strategy game that tickled Nelson's nerd-muscle (he has one). Games we talk about include Age of Empires III, Halo Wars, Soul Calibur and we share YOUR thoughts on discs vs. downloads.
Discs versus downloadable content? That's only one of many discussion topics today. We also talk about the rating for our podcast, Ticket to Ride - this weeks XBLA title, No Country for Old Men - a movie that's available on the Xbox Live Marketplace and listener mail!
We also include a time-sensitive contest! Tune in for the scoop...
Episodic content, revisiting some older-ish games and johnnies!
Today, we ask the question... is episodic content important? We also talk about last week's Xbox Live Arcade title, Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3, revisited a few old school games like Cloning Clyde & Scene It, and we top it all off with some listener mail.
