Rebel FM: Episode 88 — 01/04/11

by Alex Martin in Games397 days ago

IGN Editor Jim Reilly joins for this 2010-retrospective podcast with Anthony, Arthur, and Ryan. First, though, they look back at the games they’ve played this week. Anthony starts with the PlayStation Move components of Auditorium and Heavy Rain. Jim jumps in the middle of that to talk Oblivion, which he has just started in the midst of Elder Scrolls V news. Arthur is puzzled at Bejeweled 3′s weird faux-epic aesthetic. He’s also got impressions on Mass Effect 2′s downloadable missions (not including Lair of the Shadow Broker). Ryan’s...

Player One Podcast – Episode 195 (07/19/10) – Summer of Loots

by Ross Adams in Games571 days ago

Greg Sewart kicks off this weeks show by talking about his newest purchase of a Xbox 360 S, stories of file transfering and downloads follow. He and the other guys are miffed about the upcoming Destination Arcade app on Xbox Live, Greg and anyone outside the US won’t even have access to it because it is restricted to US only. On top of that it will only be available for the duration of Summer of Arcade. This leads to the crew discussing which of the games in the promotion they will be getting. CJ plans to get them all, which is no great shock,...

Rebel FM Episode 68 – 07/15/10

by Alex Martin in Games572 days ago

This episode sounds a bit more lo-fi but has no cats, dogs, or sirens in the background. That’s because it’s recorded at the IGN offices where Anthony and Arthur’s boss David Clayman has joined them and Matt. David’s been preparing for Child of Eden by playing designer Tetsuya Mizuguchi’s previous work, which varies in quality. Matt is surprised to be enjoying Transformers: War for Cybertron, despite Arthur’s repeated endorsements. He’s also been playing as a goblin, drinking “idea soda”, and...

The Idle Thumbs Podcast Episode 9: Rolling With the Pope

by Jonathan Downin in Games573 days ago

This one starts with the revelation that Chris has not seen the movie, The Wizard– incredible. Starting the games talk, Chris spends 20 minutes on Assassin’s Creed 2. Not many emergent moments were spawned, but he seems to have enjoyed some of the more ridiculous mechanics at play. Portal 2 gets just a few minutes before Chris shares some love for Prince of Persia: Forgotten Sands. Famous talks about how great Snoopy’s Flying Ace is, but never really manages to get the guys to take him seriously. Chris explains his affection for...

The Geekbox: Episode 74

by Jonathan Downin in Games575 days ago

The show starts with Greg putting forth that Ryan doesn’t adequately appreciate how long it takes for people commute to the comic store to record the pod. The group then moves on to discuss the WoW Beta and the forthcoming Final Fantasy XIV. After quickly touching on Crackdown 2, the crew spends a good amount of time discussing the ramifications of Blizzard’s Real ID policy, which has since been retracted to a large extent. The opinions are pretty varies, with Karen and Ryan H. coming at the issue from opposing sides. Boners enter the...

The Totally Rad Show – Episode 173: Mandibles

by Ross Adams in Games, Movies577 days ago

It’s a two movie episode this week, starting with the Robert Rodriguez produced Predators. Mixed feelings on this one, with Jeff being especially negative about it. He does say alot of it may be down to the fact he watched the original Predator film just before seeing Predators. As a result Predators seemed like a much lesser film to him and just didn’t impress him at all. Alex and Dan are both alot more positive about the film, both feeling it was alot of fun. Dan does think the first half of the movie was better than the latter half...

Player One Podcast – Episode 194 (07/12/10) – Crackdown to the Future

by Ross Adams in Games577 days ago

This weeks episode starts off with a bit more focus than usual as CJ brings some news items to the table. Kicking off with Blizzards plan to make real names required for posting on their forums, despite the fact they will no longer be going through with the plan the guys discuss what it might mean. While the accountability factor is a major plus Sewart brings up the obvious security concerns with peoples real names being freely available. Telltale recently put out a fairly extensive poll asking fans what they might want to see in the Back to the...

CastMedium Podcast 043 – 07.13.10

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies, Tech578 days ago

We start things off with a bit of discussion about the Mobcast since the most recent episode carried the torch from Irrational Interviews in featuring a bit of developer commentary. As usual, Jon has been playing the new releases, and he shares his thoughts on Singularity and Crackdown 2. The onslaught of bad press surrounding the iPhone 4 continues with Consumer Reports retracting their recommendation of the handset, and we cover what this means. A few words about User Podcasts and submissions finish the show. Covered topics and games: Mobcast,...

Rebel FM Episode 67 – 07/10/10

by Alex Martin in Games579 days ago

Civil unrest can slow Rebel FM down but can’t keep it off the air. Ignoring politics, Matt starts with one 99 cent iPhone game, and two free PC games: Bit Pilot, Moonbase Alpha, and Red Remover. He’s also enjoyed prolonging his time with Dragon Age with the Leliana’s Song DLC. Matt, Anthony, and Arthur sound like they had fun with Crackdown 2, but they have a long list of problems with it. At least it works well on-line, because it’s a lot more fun with friends. Tyler’s been playing another four-player co-op game —...

Weekend Confirmed Episode 16

by Jonathan Downin in Games581 days ago

Crackdown 2 kicks off another podcast and the guys aren’t pulling any punches. If you have heard any of the criticism piled on this game from other podcasts, it is almost all represented here as well. Jeff also got into Deadly Premonition after receiving it from Shane last week and he goes on an absolute tear about the problems with the game– incredibly fun stuff. Brian talks about his time with Arma 2, and it sounds like it is for a very specific audience. If you will like this game, you probably already know about it. Deathspank get...

at1UP: 07/07/2010

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies583 days ago

A day late due to the holiday, but a bit of Transformers talk starts the pre-show. After the opening theme Alan addresses the response to the call for MyCheats freelances, and it sounds like most of them were garbage. Kids these days… The crew touches on Red Dead Redemption and Game Night with Crackdown 2, and then moves on to Tournament of Legends, which involves gladiators. He wasn’t able to give it a try due to the Wii’s inability to connect to wifi, but is intent on getting it to work. The crew then moves on to voicemails where...

Giant Bombcast 07-06-2010

by Jonathan Downin in Games583 days ago

The guys are in the new Whiskey Media offices and one of the first things they did was set up the podcasting equipment– such dedication. They spend the first few minutes talking about the new digs before Jeff jumps into talking about Crackdown 2. The guys don’t have too many great things to say about the game, but they certainly don’t think it is awful either. Vinny talks a bit about getting around having to buy Microsoft’s overpriced Xbox 360 wireless adapter though some inventive wireless networking, and then Jeff gets...

Drunken Gamers Radio 07.02.2010

by Derek Lavigne in Games584 days ago

This week’s DGR starts off with an anecdote from Hilden on the perils that fireworks impose on your wallet. The show then moves into the normal opening of Drunk Dials and emails…and I still can’t get over the mailbag theme. Game reviews kick off this week with Slayer Pinball Rocks for the iPhone and iPad, which John loves, although Moe and Hilden have some reservations about game mechanics. Next up is Vampire Rage, an Xbox Community shmup that is given love all around and is only $1. Speaking of shooters, Sin and Punishment: Star...

CastMedium Podcast 042 – 07.06.10

by Jonathan Downin in Games, Movies, Tech585 days ago

Okay, so we didn’t get all of the technical issues worked out. Jon still sounds pretty rough this week, but that doesn’t stop us from having a good time and hitting a bunch of topics. The pilot episode of Irrational Interviews has us excited about future developer interviews. Crackdown 2 isn’t doing to well in the press, but Jon is still holding out some hope. The May gaming industry sales numbers from NPD yield triumph for Red Dead Redemption and disappointment for Alan Wake. Microsoft’s KIN is dead and we discuss Hulu’s...

Game Scoop! Podcast: Red Dead Consideration

by Jon Cole in Games587 days ago

Game Scoop! reports in with a short show this week, welcoming a rare appearance of Anthony Gallegos as well. NPDs start things off and Red Dead Redemption unsurprisingly leads the charge. Anthony makes a point that the performance of RDR is exemplary because it doesn’t have a number in the title, thus making a direct comparison to its Rockstar peer Grand Theft Auto 4 a little useless. The latest PS3 firmware update has introduced several news features to the console, including new photo display features and Move support. Most importantly...
