Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 113

by Jonathan Downin in Games1108 days ago

Charles Onyett has landed.  Wolverine is unavoidable among the gaming crowd.  No good sentiments about it here as usual.  How is that a movie this big with such a large budget can still have such horrible CG? There is a new retail Gears of War 2 collection titled “All Fronts Collection” that will include all DLC up to this point and many other extras.  It will not include an actual disc, only a code to download the featured content.  At a presumed $20 it is a pretty amazing deal, but a little hard to swallow for those that got the...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 112

by Jonathan Downin in Games1115 days ago

Now that the reorganization at IGN has taken place Charles Onyett is now on Xbox team, but don’t expect him on this one.  Unfortunately he couldn’t make it in on this one, hopefully we will get some Onyett next week.  He should be a great addition to the team. Erik Brudvig was in Manaco last week and get a chance to see Dead Rising 2.  His impressions are fairly positive overall and with the word of customizable weapons and having over 7000 zombies on screen at once the game sounds like a nice step-up from the original.  The somewhat...

E74 Podcast, Episode 111

by Jonathan Downin in Games1129 days ago

In “celebration” of the E74 issue the Three Red Lights crew has renamed their podcast to E74.  We will see if the name sticks, but that new podcast art looks amazing! (yes, you caught us, we made it.) Six Days in Fallujah gets some time here and we get some actual game impressions in addition to discussion on the issues involved.  Apparently the graphics are pretty dated with the destructibility of the environment looking especially suspect. There is an absolutely epic conversation about 80s and 90s sitcom spin-offs, character replacements...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 110

by Jonathan Downin in Games1136 days ago

The TRL crew has come around on Halo Wars and start off this week talking about it.  It sold pretty well but has not been a hot game when it comes to discussions so if you are a fan it’s nice to hear about. And the mystery continues.  Nate is still nowhere to be found and the guys are stilling saying he is “dead.”  Has he just not had time to come on the podcast or has he really left IGN?  Anybody know the truth? In talking about new Guitar Hero games the guys suggest a ZZ Top version.  It sounds like it could be incredible...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 109

by Jonathan Downin in Games1143 days ago

Some of the guys had a chance to see some video from Mass Effect 2.  According to the Bioware guys, Mass Effect provided them with a great base to build out the world and fix many of the technical issues that plagued the first one.  The word is also that the game will be more of a shooter experice.  Hopefully they don’t take out too many cool RPG elements. Yet more negative prospects for OnLive.  There are good points about bandwidth, but it is a re-hash of what every is saying. The interview with Tera Patrick is useless, but at least...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 108

by Jonathan Downin in Games1157 days ago

Nobody has anything positive to say about the prospect of Bioshock 2.  With a different team working on the second iteration and the premise sounding iffy it is understandable though.  Hopefully the first game’s art style remains intact at least. Nate is still mysteriously absent.  He must be really busy doing whatever he does outside of repeating people’s joke right after they say them. This week, join Erik Brudvig, Hilary Goldstein, David Clayman and Charles Onyett as we discuss the merits of BioShock 2 based off a few pages of...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 107

by Jonathan Downin in Games1163 days ago

Three Red Lights has accomplished something that they have only accomplished  a few times before, they released a podcast 2 weeks in a row.  Dare we hope for 3? With Resident Evil being released on Friday the guys have a lot to say about it.  They feel like it has gotten quite a ways away from what a traditional RE game was, but still fun overall. Fable III has been unofficially announced.  Apparently during the video game BAFTA awards in England, popular British personality Jonathan Ross revealed on his twitter that he had been asked to do...

Three Red Lights, Episode 106

by Jonathan Downin in Games1170 days ago

Three Red Lights has returned after a month away.  And the award for the most inconsistent podcast goes too– Breaking news here.  The TRL guys have received the exclusive on the release of the Dreamcast 2.  It it will be coming out on 9/9/09 with the launch title of The Beatles: Rock Band and the console will be shaped like a guitar.  Nate Ahearn deciphered this information out of Peter Moore saying “hello” to him in the EA offices.  Umm, yeah. Some excitement here over the forthcoming Three Red Lights developed Bedazzler...

Three Red Lights, Episode 105

by Jonathan Downin in Games1192 days ago

The fact that Valve got Microsoft to let them release free DLC for Left 4 Dead is really great.  Microsoft has traditionally been very against this, but hopefully they are learning to let developers make the call. The talk of Mass Effect reminds me of how great that game is.  Sure, there were some small problems and it was a bit glitchy at times, but these are things that are likely to be fixed in a sequel.  Hopefully we see a bit more polish on the graphics now that it is almost 2 years later though. Discussing story in relation to Gears of...

Three Red Lights, Episode 104

by Jonathan Downin in Games1199 days ago

Spacebook?  Facespace?  yeah– The guys are talking G.I. Joe again this episode.  These guys really love G.I. Joe.  The new trailer looks pretty bad.  Why do all our 80s childhood past times have to be ran through the mud? This week, join Ryan Geddes, Hilary Goldstein and Colin Moriarty on a magical romp through space. That’s right, space. Look it up on Spacebook (or Facespace if you’re Hilary). So here’s a question. How bad was the trailer for the G.I. Joe movie? Are there words to describe it? Yes, but we can’t...

Three Red Lights, Episode 103

by Jonathan Downin in Games1213 days ago

Hilary is back, and he’s spoiling LOST for everyone in the office.  Don’t worry, he doesn’t let it loose on the podcast. Skate 2 seems to have been re-worked a bit to be a little bit more accessible.  This seems to be a good and a bad thing with a game that is going for realism. As is the Three Red Lights way, not much real game talk in this one, but we do get an epic Star Wars discussion.  Yeah. This week, join Ryan Geddes, Hilary Goldstein, Nate Ahearn and special guest IGN Vice President of Consumer Brand Marketing and the...

Three Red Lights, Episode 102

by Jonathan Downin in Games1220 days ago

Three Read Lights is missing Hilary again this week.  It’s just not the same without his sarcasm and incessant ripping into people. A discussion on bots in this episode.  That really brings me back the Quake days.  Not many games have bots any more, do you miss them?  Bots. This week, join Ryan Geddes, Erik Brudvig, Nate Ahearn and special guest IGN Guides edior Colin Moriarty as we discuss the most important things in the world: Xbox 360 games and VH1′s new reality series Tool Academy. And no, it does not star Nate. Yet. When will...

Three Red Lights, Episode 101

by Jonathan Downin in Games1227 days ago

IGN has been slow in getting back into the release schedule but the Three Red Lights podcast is finally back, minus Hilary Goldstein. The Xbox 360 guys are complaining Metal Gear Solid 4, a PS3 game– incredible.  The guys give their predictions for 2009 as well.  It sounds like I am not the only one anxiously awaiting Alan Wake. This week, join Ryan Geddes, Erik Brudvig, Nate Ahearn and special guest David Clayman as we kick off 2009 right by talking about all the games we never played over the holiday season. Weapon of Choice developer...

Three Red Lights Podcast, Episode 100!

by Jonathan Downin in Games1255 days ago

Wow, they actually made it to 100 episodes.  Not regular, not that informative, but always entertaining, the circus led by Hilary has hit a milestone. We get a lot of reminiscing about a few clips picked by listeners.  The self depreciating comedy meter is broken after this one. Wow. Can we really have recorded 100 episodes of the Three Red Lights podcast? It seems like just last week that we sat in this very studio and chatted with famed rapper 50 Cent. So much has transpired since then. Nate got hit by that weird asteroid. John Stamos stopped...

Three Red Lights – Episode Fiddy

by Jonathan Downin in Games1262 days ago

The guys that were revolutionized by Don King have finally made it to episode 50.  They are not regular, but they are always entertaining.  Nothing else quite hits that perfect middle ground of bafoonery and lack of information with unsubstantiated opinions (other than Podcast Beyond).  Believe it or not, they got 50 Cent on the phone this week. In all honesty, these guys are great, give it a listen. …So this week, we lined up rap superstar 50 Cent as a special guest. But life in the entertainment biz isn’t all that easy. And just...
