It’s clearly to many that at1UP is the flagship podcast of 1UP.com however what is considered to many as the flagship show, 4 Guys 1UP, is currently in an odd limbo. Jeremy Parish has stepped down as host, Mike and the gang fill us in on the details of what to expect on that feed for the next few weeks. It sounds like there will be alot of testing the waters with 3 distinct hosts and formats. 1UPs game night will feature Halo: Reach this week, the guys briefly hit on their thoughts of the beta so far. Mike also briefly talks about his experience...

Things kick off this week with the guys discussing whether Gordon Ramsay should be added to their list of enemies of food. Following on from the bad CGW covers feature is an upcoming bad EGM covers feature, Mike shares some stories about why he personally isn’t a fan of some of the covers. Checking in for some gaming updates immediately gets sidetracked by Mike wondering why Pikachu never evolved into Raichu on the Pokemon anime. Jade surprisingly knows the answer and informs everyone about an episode which focused on the very question. Movies...

With Marvel vs Capcom 3 announced the at1up crew speculate which characters may be appearing in the new game. Sleep is Death recently got reviewed on 1UP, Travis is quick to say it isn’t strictly a game but more of a creative tool. Two players collaborate to create a story of sorts which gets turned into a comic at the end of the process, everyone is really impressed by it. Jade was apparently going to review Again but whatever reason that isn’t happening in the forseeable future. It’s perhaps for the best as she has alot of issues...

The 1UP offices got a visit from a geniune luchador, El Elegido, this week and as you might expect there are some great stories to be told. He was there to help promote the new Lucha Libre game and took a shine to Mike who apparently closely resembles another luchador. El Elegido was also at a Konami event that Alan attended, once more stories of El Elegidos antics are out of the way Alan shares his thoughts on some of the games he saw. While there’s nothing new to report on Metal Gear Solid: Peacewalker there are some some positive reactions...

Alan’s article about Easter Eggs went up last week unfortunately at some point during the process every instance of the word “to” was replaced leading to lots of odd grammtical errors. The backlash that followed leads to a brief discussion about the editing situation at 1UP and their lack of copy editors. Mike shares some stories from his time at Wondercon, it would seem he didn’t make a good impression on Jerry Bruckheimer. Jade didn’t do much at the con other than buy some figures which leads the guys talking about...

It’s back to basics with this week’s episode of at1UP. Mike kicks this one off with a few word about a new video show coming from Matt Leone, titled Backstage, that will focus on the game development process. Each episode will cover 1 game, and will feature insights directly from the developer. The crew quickly touches on the 1UP Awards and the Bungie Haiti relief program. Mike has been playing Darksiders, and he shares his frustration, and subsequent satisfaction, with the bosses in the game. Travis was tasked with watching a pair...

Matt Shirk is back, and the at1UP media Voltron of the future is reformed. Travis has been playing Okami and has a few nice things to say about it. He also touches on the recent Lord of the Rings Online expansion that is available for free to multi-month subscribers. Jade talks about The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks again before the group moves onto a discussion about Avatar. Shirk just saw it and poses a few questions to the group regarding some of the story elements. The group touches on a lot of the nerdier points of the film in a way that...

Bioshock 2 is this week’s 1UP cover story and the crew starts off the cast by talking about it. Mike and Travis are especially excited about the cover art, which was done by an artist involved in 2K’s “Artist Series.” The group also touches on the awesome Musical Miscreants feature from last week. Mike had a chance to get his hands on Heavy Rain, and he warns everyone that the controls will take some serious time to get used to. Jade shares her experience with the recent Zelda release, and the regular show ends with TV talk...

Casting Gear 003 – 1UP

by Jonathan Downin in Features792 days ago

Editor’s note: Casting Gear is a series about podcasting and the tools used in the process. In this series, we hope to demystify the podcasting process and show the wide range of tools and methods that different podcasters use to produce a show. In addition to listing the software and hardware used, a brief rundown of the work-flow for the given podcast will be provided. Delving into technical minutiae isn’t the goal here, it is to provide a window into the different approaches that are in practice. The following text, unless otherwise noted,...

Get ready for the longest at1UP ever. It is a regular show up front with Mike quickly touching on the 1UP Alan Wake cover story. Jade then proceeds to go on a Silent Hill: Shattered Memories tirade, but keep in mind that this is her favorite series. Travis and Mike are talking some more Dragon Age, and the regular show segment closes on iPhone game talk since Travis is now an iPhone owner. The 1st after-show segment has Mike talking to fellow UGO podcasters, Brandon and Hilary, from the Toob Tied. Toob Tied is a TV-based podcast so the duo fit right...

PAX East is the first topic up this week, and unfortunately at1UP is not in the running for potential 1UP podcast panels. The 1UP Game of the Year community poll is approaching and the group discusses that before giving their current personal picks of Batman, Dragon Age and Prof. Layton 2 by Mike, Travis and Jade respectively. Jade is excited about the cat-infused Sukeban Shachou Rena– just check out the video below. Things turn a little more serious with Zynga’s recent exploits taking center stage. The AOL rebranding is certainly aesthetically...

Ray Barnholt is in this week and he starts the cast off with a few impressions of his recently procured DSi XL. The whole group seems to feel like the screen size is nice and there is no word of the device being too big overall. Filling the 1UP Game Night slot this week is Tony Hawk Ride. The crew is obviously not too up on this latest entry in the series as they are cautiously optimistic about it, and Jade misses the price point by $30. They have set themselves up for disappointment here. Mike held a little get-together featuring New Super Mario...

The podcast kicks off with the crew talking about this year’s 1UP Holiday Buyers Guide. It is broken-down by system and there are a ton of recommendations in there. Mike and Jade have been playing Assassin’s Creed 2: Discovery for DS and Harvest Moon: Animal Parade respectively, and Travis is still neck-deep in Dragon Age. Mike’s disappointment with Fast Forward kicks-off the TV talk which ends the regular show. In the after-show segment, Mikes invites Kat Bailey and Jeremy Parish in to talk about their podcasts and explain...

The at1UP crew are not fans of the military-based first person shooters, so don’t expect any Modern Warfare 2 coverage here. The 1UP community has arranged a week long homecoming community event, so Mike and co. share some details about it. It’s a little hokey, but it sounds like good-spirited fun. Mike, Jade and Travis may not be FPS fans, but they are RPG fans, so they are discussing Dragon Age. Travis joined this week’s Retronauts, with special guest Dr. Greg Zeschuk, so he has a few things to say about the game. Mike and Travis...

Halloween stories, or the lack thereof, start things off this week with Mike being the only one who chose to don a costume, as a hobo. There are various improvements coming to 1UP, including revamped my1UP and user review sections. Travis says to look for those soon, hopefully by the end of them week. Travis has been playing Torchlight and shares about his loot-filled experience with the game. Mike has gone deep into the player creator in WWE SMackdown vs. Raw, and Jade vents about the difficulty of A Boy and His Blob. Conflicted feeling about DJ...
