Episode 30 - The Ordinary Fear of Pod

This week, we talk about astronomy, interior design, Adsense, my gorgeous face, Gravity Rush, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, Blinx: The Time Sweeper, Batman: Arkham Asylum, GTA IV, Cat Stevens, and our Piles o' Shame. We discuss an Australian R18+ rating, GAME Australia's closing, the 3DS XL (and why Nintendo might be more evil than EA), Super Smash Bros' future, the Summer of Arcade, Thatgamecompany (and why I am a sucker for a physical disc) and their future on Xbox, Valve's Steam for Schools initiative, THQ's future (and that of Enter The Dominatrix), Mega Man's 25th anniversary, and some interesting up-covering from Xbox. And then Sandsky makes us stop recording! What a grinch!

Episode 28 - E3 Phone Home


This episode, it's our E3 special! We talk about GTA IV DLC, Max Payne 3, sea urchins, Born Ruffians, Prometheus, THQ San Diego's layoffs, a Humble Indie Bundle update, Xbox Smash Bros clone ruled out, and the details of Peter Molyneux's new game. Then we begin our wrap-up of our E3 impressions, covering so many games and topics I can't be bothered writing them here! Suffice it to say, Tom was in tears at the end of it all, but our good friend Jesus brought him back to his usual joyful self.

If you host a podcast, and you set up the expectation that you're going to put a nice-looking Instagram or Hipstamatic picture at the end of it, you better remember to take that damn photo. Otherwise you'll look like a damn fool in front of all your thousands of fans and followers.
