Command Prompt Episode 63

by Jonathan Downin in Games857 days ago

And the prize for worst sounding podcast from outlet that should have the equipment to sound much better goes to– seriously, this is horrible. Steve cops to having some technical problems at the beginning here, but the levels are all over the place and the overall quality is terrible. They should have just scrapped this one. The group touches on the recent rumors of a Call of Duty movie being in the early stages of conceptualization at the beginning this week. This could be interesting, but game to movie adaptations have yet to prove that...

The Totally Rad Show – Episode 133: Funtastic

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies858 days ago

Starting out movies this week is Zombieland the guys loved it. It sounds like it has just the right amount of camp to be funny without being satirical in a Shawn of the Dead sort of way. It is a genre film done right. Ricky Gervais’s The Invention of Lying also get the thumbs up here, but it doesn’t quite reach the potential of its premise. The guys take the middle segment to sit down with the director of Trick r’ Treat, Michael Dougherty and play an old VHS-based board game from the 80s called Nightmare. Oh how times have changed. Aion...

GWJ Conference Call Episode 155

by Jonathan Downin in Games863 days ago

It’s a small crew this week, but that doesn’t hinder the discussion in the slightest. Special guest Wes Wilson, of the Control Point Podcast, is on this week and he is a heavy MMO player so the discussion starts out with MMOs ranging from WoW to Age of Conan and ends on Aion. It sounds like Aion’s real appeal is the graphic fidelity of the game. Wes chalks it up to “newness.” After singing the praises of the Brutal Legend demo, Shawn expresses his excitement about his newly built Core i5 gaming rig. He decided to throw...

Command Prompt Episode 62

by Jonathan Downin in Games870 days ago

It’s an uneventful week in PC games and a fairly dry episode of Command Prompt. Whether you loved him or hated him, you have to admit that Jason Ocampo made this podcast more interesting. Jeff has been playing through Dragon Age: Origins and it sounds like just the kind of game that old-school Bioware fans are looking for. Steve and Marissa have been putting some time into Aion and it sounds like it may be worth a look– at least until Cataclysm comes out next year. The PC version of Borderlands has been delayed by 6 days, and this has...

GWJ Conference Call Episode 153

by Jonathan Downin in Games878 days ago

Get ready for some more Beatles talk because the Gamers with Jobs guys are eager to share their opinions on the game and they don’t hold back.  The tout the universal appeal of the game, but feel like it might be a little short.  They also aren’t too excited about having to purchase a lot of songs that they feel should have been in the package. MMOs get some time here with Shawn Andrich talking about the Aion open beta.  He shares that this feels like WoW more than any other MMO out there and he is enjoying it.  Instead of flying...

Command Prompt Podcast, Episode 55

by KirePDX in Games920 days ago

According to Command Prompt, a villain is just the hero for the other side, so they spend some time with the Empire for a potential TIE Fighter rerelease, and look at both the good and evil stories of Aion‘s world. LucasArts recently hinted at upcoming announcements about TIE Fighter, a beloved Star Wars space sim, and it has the PC crew excited for a remake or rerelease similar to what LucasArts has done for their other classic games. On the MMO front, Jason and Jeff Haynes have been playing Aion, an upcoming MMO from NCsoft. While there...
