CastMedium Podcast 079 – Portal 2 talk

by Jonathan Downin in Games281 days ago

It’s all Portal 2 this week. Jon and I just barely managed to finish the game in time to talk about it on the show this week, and we don’t hold back. We hit the story, technical elements, PS3 Steam impressions and what we expect and would like to see for the future of the Portal franchise. Does that sound like a lot? Well maybe that’s because it is. Also, be warned, we don’t hold back on the spoilers, so it would probably be wise to hold off on this episode until you have finished the game.

Engadget exodus ends with encouragement (updated)

by Jon Cole in News298 days ago

As an Engadget faithful and podcast junkie, news that Paul Miller, Joshua Topolsky, and Nilay Patel were leaving the site left me a bit distressed. In one fell sweep, the Engadget Podcast was no more. In a move to try to preserve some connection with the personalities at my favorite tech website, I began to listen to the Engadget Mobile Podcast hosted by frequent flagship guest Chris Ziegler. Much to my surprise and continued dismay, Chris announced on his latest show that he was also leaving the site in favor of greener pastures. Luckily, these...

Required Listening: Bethesda Podcast Oblivion Special

by Jon Cole in Games300 days ago

Up until this point, The Bethesda Podcast has been fairly reigned in, with the longest episode featuring the conversational John Carmack. The latest episode changes this trend, bringing out all the stops for an Oblivion 5th Anniversary podcast. Similar to the format of some Irrational Podcasts, the first half of the show is dedicated to the most memorable moments of development as spoken from the mouths of the developers themselves. This gives a ton of insight into the thinking behind some of the most entertaining quests, including the origins of...
